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!

    Roughly how much ricotta does this make?

    Do you leave it sitting in the Thermo bowl for 20 mins? Or after it's been put into simmering basket?

    Hello sorry not sure what happened there! I only used full fat milk that may have been the problem. You can use the whey in smoothies.

    Sorry I just saw this! Thickened or pouring cream will work tmrc_emoticons.)

    Made ricotta for the first time. No fresh milk so used skim milk made with skim milk powder. Used double cream. The result looks like rubber! Also didn't make much. What does everyone use their whey for?

    Also have one very burnt bowl. Will this affect the flavour of the ricotta? Wanting it for a cherry pie?

    Loved this recipe. I made it with long-life A2 milk, and light thickened cream and it was great. I will add a little more salt next time though (I use himalayan salt). My 7yo ate it fresh by the spoon full. tmrc_emoticons.-)

    What kind of cream do I use, pouring cream?
