Thermomix Model

  • Appliance TM 5 image
    Recipe is created for
    TM 5
    If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
    For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.
    Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

    Hi your link doesn't work 

    do you mind reposting 

    I would like to read it 

    thank

    The original non thermie version of this can be found http://84thand3rd.com/2014/08/19/best-ever-gluten-free-chocolate-cake-dairy-free-nut-free-probably-paleo-too/

    Its worth reading the blog as she has lots of info on how the cake cooks etc and substitues.  

    I made this last week the old fashioned way as it is very easy - it was a nice cake, but overly chocolately for my tastes.  Would reduce cacao next time.

    Made it today and it was good 

    felt weird making it with the ingredients used

     

    grams conversion would have been good as I just guessed so I could use just the Thermomix 

     

    wasnt a very high cake which made me think maybe I didn't put enough baking powder maybe 

    but I'm sure I put 2 tsp, who knows

    Any chance of getting the recipe in grams? I prefer not to use extra cooking apparatus if I can help it - and it's a shame not to take advantage of the scales! Looks amazing and would love to try  tmrc_emoticons.)
