About the Thermomix
The Thermomix is not widely seen in UK households, but in Spain, Italy and Australia it is extremely popular. You only need to look at a Spanish recipe website to see that instructions are often given for the Thermomix as well as the conventional cooking method. I have seen the Thermomix described as the 'complete kitchen in one' and is ideal if you have a small kitchen or for students.
So what exactly is a Thermomix? It is a super fast food blender and processor that also weighs, cooks, simmers and steams. It has just one bowl and a blade which:
- Weighs - with built-in electronic scales
- Grates - nuts, cheese, chocolate, parmesan
- Mills - rice, grains and pulses to flour
- Purées - vegetables, fruits, baby food
- Grinds - coffee beans, sugar to icing sugar, wet or dry spices
- Blends - soups, smoothies, milkshakes and sauces
- Cooks, boils & simmers - soups, sauces, preserves, pulses, complete meals
- Steams - vegetables, meat, fish, fruits, rice, pasta
- Crushes - ice, cocktails, ice creams, sorbet
- Whisks - egg whites, cappuccino-style foam on soups and milk, zabaglione
- Emulsifies - salad dressings, mayonnaise, batters, cream
- Kneads - bread dough, pizza dough, pasta dough, pastry, scones
- Chops & minces - nuts, herbs, vegetables, salads, meats
- Heats baby food to 37°C
- Holds chocolate at 37°C
- Cleans itself - see below
See Vorwerk Thermomix UK for further information and details of where you can go to see a demonstration of it in action.
Popular with professional chefs, the Thermomix, in the long term, will save you money on both food and fuel. However, it is not cheap at around £885 (1,015 Euros)- October 2011 - , so just be nice to your loved ones and see if they will club together to get you one for your birthday or Christmas.
