Thermomix

My girlfriends parents bought us one as a house warming gift recently, does anyone else use one? We have used it twice thus far after getting it and I am loving it, I am not a foodie at all but do love technology.

It would have helped if you gave us an idea what a Thermomix does. Why do you force us to Google this.

And while you were googling it why don’t you provide a ****ing link instead of pointing us to Google.

is it like a fancy multi cooker ?

I gave you a f.....g lot of choices and not a specific one I selected, so pic and ****ing choose your own.

Then it didn’t work properly.

Those things cost $$$$$$$. If it's Vorwerk it must be good.

Thought it was this https://thermomix.vorwerk.com/thermomix/

Yeah it's weird, I'm guessing the MyBB mobile clients somehow breaks it in passing it to the mobile browser.

Made "famous" by Masterchef Australia? That's where I've seen these being used all the time. As well as the blender with the "stick" in the middle.

What is a Thermomix?

It does sound like a weight loss product from herbalife or something.

What does it cost? I assume you will also need to plash out on a dozen optional extras too.

A friend at work got one of these recently. IMO they are worth the hype. You can set recipes and it makes absolutely precise dishes. You just follow the steps on the screen, and it manages the temperatures and the chopping and stirring in the dish. We made a beautiful chicken tandoori in around 20 minutes.

They are pricey though - €1000 for the latest one. And once you have it there aren't a lot of extra things you need to buy. I'd say it's worth it. But bear in mind it is limited - no searing, baking, broiling or anything like that.

They're also extremely good at making delicate sauces and custards. The temperature control is so good you don't need to worry about splitting the eggs, and it makes perfect emulsions. I'd say just for that function alone it's worth the money. You can get a flawless creme brulee or bearnaise without any fuss or even kitchen skills. Also they can prepare doughs for baking, and do a pretty great ice cream.
