Title: Yet another newbie here
Post by: mcm12183 on September 10, 2009, 04:53:35 am
hello! im a new thermomix person also- have had mine for a few weeks now, i cant believe how much money i am able to save! i made the potato and leek soup the other night and it was a bit of a disaster- it tasted way way way too salty!! i think the recipe asked for 2TBS of TM stock- which my hubby did, but i had to end up adding another 2 leeks and 6 potatos to make it edible! so if you do that one i would try 2TSP of stock and go from there!!!
have fun!

Welcome to both of you. I find that I only need to add 1 teaspoonTM stock for every cup of water (or 250ml)
I had a few disastrously salty soups and risottos too.

Welcome mcm12183. I have found with the concentatred stock I do not need to use so much rock salt as I usei it up quickly. You will have a few disasters along the way but that is what we are here for. It is all good fun. I bet you will be eating the soup for some time!

Welcome, I am loving all theses newbies  ;D ;D I have reduced the salt in my stock as well, only because I use so much of it and we are not salt eaters

In the latest edition of EDC - the salt has been reduced to 150g for TM Veg concentrate
