I've never had a problem with my bread sticking. Maybe sprinkle the sprayed pans with cornmeal. Would add nice texture to your bread.

What a great way to make Croissantes! Has anyone tried stuffing them with Chocolate? Might have to try it

I love my ipad! I use it in the kitchen lots, and have a ton of recipe apps on it. Can't wait for the thermomix app. That would be great!

I was wondering the same thing, so I just used bread flour. It worked great!

I made Tenina's French Bread yesterday and it was awesome! Recipe here http://tenina.com/2009/01/perfect-french-sticks-or-batons-francais-parfaits/I used to make French Bread in my food processor, but it's even better in the thermomix as I don't have to dirty utensils. Couple of changes I made to the recipe. I used kosher salt. Added an extra tsp of yeast, (I used traditional dry yeast) added in a tbsp of olive oil. I reversed the order that I put ingredients in the thermomix. I did water and yeast first and let it proof a bit, then added the rest with salt being last. I put my dough in a baguette pan and put it on a pizza stone, on bottom shelf. I put a tray on top shelf to which i added the ice cubes, (as I don't have a steam oven) Bread was fantastic. Will be making this one again and again! Thanks Tenina!

Thanks Thermomix blogger for posting the link and the pic. Makes a beautiful presentation! Don't see why one couldn't sub out any thinly sliced fish or even meat for that matter, if one didn't like lox.
Gertbythesea,yes it is! I am looking forward to trying more of Helene's recipes!
I've had my thermomix for a few weeks now, but really haven't had much chance to play around with it yet. I'm hoping after the holidays I will get more time to experiment and convert some recipes using it.
Thank you so much. I will certainly come here and ask if I need help.
This is a great forum, and I am really enjoying the recipes and posts!

Made these tonight and they were excellent!
5 asparagus spears per bundle...ends snapped off
Smoked salmon, (lox) 2-3 pieces per bundle
Chive or green onion. (if using green onion, split it down the middle 3/4s of the way
Put smoked salmon, (lox, the cold smoked thin stuff) on a work surface. Season with salt/ pepper, and what ever seasonings you want. Wrap 5 asparagus pieces (that have had their ends snapped off and washed) in the salmon. Wrap a piece of chive or split green onion around the bundle to secure.
Place however many bundles you want in the varoma steaming basket. Put the lid on. Put a litre of water in the base with the varoma steaming basket on top.
Steam 20 minutes Varoma temp speed 2 - 3.
These were great. I served them with some garlic mayo mixed with some horseradish and some sour cream. Could serve with hollondaise as well!.

Made these yesterday and they were fantastic. Thanks! Very moist and flavourful. I used vanilla paste instead of the extract and added about 1/2 whole pecans, which I added in with the rest of ingredients.

Thanks Shayla! When I picked mine up the distributor hoped I might like to become a consultant down the road, as there aren't any in my area. We'll see how fast I learn at using it. Looking forward to learning how to convert recipes as well. Thanks Cornish Cream. It is great fun, and no they don't use one yet. Maybe I can convert them

Hi all. Just bought my thermomix on Sunday. Have made risotto and bread with it already, and am totally loving it. Looking forward to trying many recipes from this forum and getting to know all of you. I bought my machine without a demo, though I did watch some on youtube. I am a major foodie, who loves to cook, and loves food! I am a gadget aholic, I will admit, though I do find I tend to use most of them I am lucky enough to be working in a gourmet food store, so I get to watch some amazing chefs at work, as well as have access to some premium ingredients to cook with. artsyshell
