Recipe is created forTM 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!

Comments
I love this sauce however next time I would omit the sugar. The egg yolk is a missing ingredient in the sauce recipe? I have made it twice both times without the egg yolk, first time it was much thicker, I think the better quality cream makes a difference.
This sauce is delicious!!
What did I do wrong? I made the dill sauce (to go over salmon) but it was really thin & runny even though I followed the recipe exactly. It still tasted great
Any suggestions, please?
I didn't make the quinoa salad but used your recipe for the salmon, sauce & veg - it was delicious!!!
