My Top Tips
Tip #1 - Thermomix swaps where needed
Do you go to make a recipe and find you do not have the ingredient or maybe you do not like the ingredient? You know you can swap it for something else? For example - you do not drink coffee, then swap it for cocoa. You don't have asparagus, then mixed vegies it is. I always try to consider the texture and water content when swapping...think of recipes as the base and you can play with the rest.
Tip #2 - Thermomix to the size you want
If you do not want to make the full cake...consider scaling it to suit. Cookidoo 3.0 allows you to scale recipes, or you can do it yourself instead. Turn cakes into muffins, or breads into bread rolls if you want smaller recipes sizes.
Tip #3 - Planning & a well stocked pantry is key to creating café style foods at home
If you know you are having visitors, life is made so much easier with a well stock pantry. This gives you the base for so many recipes that you can create and impress them with. If you haven't yet got my Pantry, Fridge & Freezer List (you would have received it in an email when you first subscribed to Tmxing Adventures), you can download it here.
Final Tip
If you go out and you find a recipe you enjoy - take a picture of the menu so you can have a go at replicating it at home. Often you will find a simple online search will give you a good starting point to make this recipe at home for the fraction of the price. If you need support with this, I am always happy to help.
