Eating vegan with a Thermomix can be delicious and convenient. The Thermomix is a versatile kitchen appliance that can assist you in preparing a wide range of vegan dishes. Here are some general tips and ideas for preparing vegan meals with a Thermomix:

Plant-Based Ingredients:

    • Choose a variety of fresh fruits and vegetables.
    • Utilize grains such as quinoa, rice, and whole wheat.
    • Include legumes like lentils, chickpeas, and beans.
    • Use plant-based protein sources like tofu and tempeh.

Vegan Recipes

      • Explore Thermomix vegan cookbooks or online recipes for inspiration.
      • Adapt your favorite non-vegan recipes by substituting animal products with plant-based alternatives.

Basic Cooking Functions:

    • Use the Thermomix for chopping, blending, and grating vegetables.
    • Make sauces, dips, and dressings easily with the mixing and blending functions.
    • Steam vegetables or grains using the Varoma attachment.

Plant-Based Milks and Creams:

    • Prepare homemade plant-based milks such as almond, soy, or oat milk.
    • Use coconut cream or cashew cream in recipes that call for dairy cream.

Soups and Stews:

The Thermomix is excellent for making hearty soups and stews. Experiment with various vegetable combinations and legumes.

Baking:

    • Explore vegan baking by replacing eggs with flax eggs or applesauce.
    • Use plant-based butter or coconut oil instead of dairy butter.

Nut Butters and Spreads:

    • Make your nut butters, such as almond or peanut butter, in the Thermomix.
    • Experiment with homemade hummus, guacamole, or other plant-based spreads.

Doughs and Batters:

    • Prepare vegan pizza dough, pancake batter, or bread dough in the Thermomix.
    • Replace eggs with alternatives like mashed bananas or silken tofu in baking recipes.

Customize and Experiment:

    • Get creative and adapt your favorite recipes to make them vegan-friendly.
    • Experiment with different herbs, spices, and flavorings to enhance your dishes.

Clean-Up Tips:

    • Take advantage of the self-cleaning feature of the Thermomix for easier cleanup.
    • Wash the components promptly after use to prevent food residue from sticking.

Remember to always check ingredient labels to ensure they are vegan, as some processed products may contain hidden animal-derived ingredients. With a bit of creativity and exploration, you can enjoy a wide variety of delicious vegan meals with the help of your Thermomix.

Lemons

Lemon Concentrate Cleaner

2 Comments / Non-food

This lemon concentrate cleaner is a beauty. First written on the Thermomix UK website when I bought my TM31 back in 2009, it’s been lost in the archives and I’m here to revive it.

Lemon contains both acidity found in the juice along with grease-cutting oil within its skin, combined to create a superb cleaning companion. The acid in lemons is also antibacterials and antiseptic and acts as a natural bleach. The citrus smell of lemon is refreshing and invigorating. Oils in the rinds help the clean and shine. With salt, you can throw away many of the harsh, chemical-based products under your sink or in your cleaning cupboard.

But there’s just one caveat to bear in mind. While lemons and lemon juice can do a great job with many household chores, it is not a disinfectant. In other words, it is not a good substitute for bleach or related products when you are actually trying to remove dangerous microbes from cooking surfaces. Because food safety is important, be sure to hang onto appropriate cleaning products and use them as needed.

Uses include cleaning copper bottom pots and pans, countertops, drains, glass cleaning, fridge freshener, microwaves, cheese graters, wood cleaner, etc. Of course, I use it to clean my TM bowl too. This homemade lemon cleaner is acidic and can be used to clean countless things in your home.

Disclaimer – Thermomix® is a cooking appliance intended to be only used for food preparation.

However, the recipes here are using food ingredients – lemon, salt, water, vinegar I also have multiple Thermomixes and TM bowls, so I can safely use separate bowls for making these without any cross-contamination. If in any doubt, don’t make them.
