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!

    Love this cake. Remove a bit extra pith to limit bitterness and increased the amount of almond meal to flour to reduce carbs.

    this recipe is so delicious. I didn't dare use the peel of the oranges, used more oranges and less sugar, and it turned out beautiful. I covered it with chocolate.

    Kids complained of bitter after taste.  Will try removing skin next time but otherwise very moist and tasty

    A hit at the office. So easy and so delicious. My icing looked nothing like the picture here - still tasted good but my cake was definitely not as pretty as this one!
