Perfect rice doesn’t have to be a fine art when it can be a science.
Start by following one of the basic Rice Cooker mode recipes to familiarise yourself with the correct proportions of water to grains.
Then make your own adjustments. Also suitable for grains, such as spelt.
Rice Cooker
Easily chop ingredients finely or coarsely without guessing
which speed to choose or for how long.
This convenient and versatile tool allows you to chop different ingredients and amounts to your preferred size.
From the sweet to savory, simply select the ingredient
you want to chop from the pre-set list.
For exampl:chop chocolate chunks for your next batch of chocolate chip cookies, or the next time you need to cut several onions, spare yourself the tears and leave the task to your Thermomix® TM6!
Chop Tool
For soups, smoothies, purées, and sauces
with the perfect density.
This mode is preset at 30 seconds and slowly increases to target speed.
Alternatively, you can set the time and speed manually.
TM6's powerful motor and sharp blades make blending a breeze.
Blend
Kettle is a mode used to heat water to precise
temperatures. Green tea, for example, is best
brewed at 80°C, and 96°C is the optimal water
temperature for making coffee.
This precise control over the final temperature of the heated water means that your drinks will never be too
hot or too cold, but just right!
Use Kettle mode exclusively to heat water - small
amounts of tea, herbs and spices may be added.
Kettle
Let experimentation be your guide as you devise sauces, desserts, or jams.
Or simply follow a recipe on Cookidoo® and learn by doing.
Master tricky sauces such as Hollandaise, or for a dessert treat, try a custard or zabaglione.
Thicken
For yoghurts and soft cheeses, you’ll be using the Varoma® dish. Set the time for up to 12 hours, with a temperature in the 37-70°C range.
Fermenting foods at home is easy and safe, and you’ll feel the benefits for your health. Homemade yoghurt is a treat!
This mode can also be used to proof a dough.
Fermentation
Finally, a way to knead doughs practically effortlessly.
Simply put the ingredients in the mixing bowl,
turn the selector button and wait.
The mixing knife will alternate between clockwise and
counterclockwise rotation.
Enjoy the satisfaction of baking your own bread!
Knead
In some cultures, the perfect boiled egg is known
as the 7-minute egg.
We’ve taken that sense of precision a step further.
Place 2-6 eggs (53-63 g each) directly from the
refrigerator in the mixing bowl without the
simmering basket, then cover with water up to the
1-liter mark.
Choose your desired setting (from soft to hard) and start the mode. Forget about counting the minutes and seconds: TM6 will ring at the precise moment when you have to remove the eggs.
For perfect results, remove the eggs immediately!
Egg Boiler
In Turbo mode, you’re operating the mixing
knife at maximum speed in short bursts.
This mode is just the thing to chop up hard
ingredients such as Parmesan cheese, cured
ham, or chocolate into medium or small pieces.
You can also briefly chop citrus with water
to obtain their juice without getting the
bitter flavour from the white pith of the skin.
Turbo
Think in terms of temperature rather than time.
Just set the temperature you want – once the food
is ready, heating will stop and an alert will sound.
No more worries about overheating. Perfect for
heating or reheating baby food, sauces, soups,
and stews.
You can even heat up milk for your hot chocolate or coffee!
Warm Up
All the pleasure of slow cooking, but without much work.
Cook up to 800 g of ingredients for up to 8 hours. Use the Thermomix® Blade Cover & Peeler (purchased separately) to keep the meat or fish protected.
Simply follow the Cookidoo® recipe, relax and enjoy the aromas.
Go for a gourmet approach with high-quality ingredients,
or if you're feeling thrifty, choose an affordable option such as pork shoulder or chicken thighs.
30 Thermomix® modes & tools | Slow Cook Slow Cook
Slow Cook
A very gentle way of cooking. What you’re aiming for:
inner perfection with no risk of overcooking the outside.
What you’ll need: a suitable sous-vide bag from the
supermarket – they often come with a vacuum pump – or even just a food-safe zip-lock bag.
You can use the simmering basket to protect the bags from the blades, or you can use the Thermomix® Sous-vide set (purchased separately), which includes a vacuum sealer, vacuum bags, and a Thermomix® Blade Cover & Peeler to protect the bags
Sous-vide
High-temp cooking is the high road to bold flavours.
To succesfully cook the recipes using this mode, always pay close attention to the quantities and instructions.
TM6 will control the temperature, and the High Temperature mode will deliver the appetising flavour of beautifully browned meat and vegetables.
High Temperature
Honeycomb, caramel, and fudge - minus the stirring and guesswork. Your sweet tooth will thank you.
For perfect results and safety, this mode is only available within Guided Cooking recipes.
Traditional sweet toffees will delight the kids, while grown-ups will love a salted caramel.
Sugar Stages
Precision weighing in single gram increments.
Say goodbye to separate scales and
measuring cups and enjoy an uncluttered
kitchen workspace.
Weighing
Do you really enjoy peeling a pile of
vegetables by hand?
If not, get yourself a Thermomix®
Blade Cover & Peeler
(purchased separately)
and use it with the TM6’s
Peeler mode.
Ideal for potatoes and a variety of root vegetables.
Four minutes is the recommended time.
Peeler
Slice and dice for a meal that’s twice as nice! In this mode utilising the Thermomix® Cutter accessory (purchased separately), you can use the
two-sided cutting surface to prepare everything from chorizo to cucumber.
What size do you want them to be? You decide by rotating the Cutter clockwise for thick slices that you can roast in the oven and counterclockwise for thin strips that are just perfect for adding to coleslaws and salad garnishes.
Simple prep for super dishes.
Slicing
With the Thermomix® Cutter accessory
(purchased separately),
you can grate your carrots and those potatoes for your homemade hash browns and shred that celeriac for your superfood poké bowl.
In this mode, all you need to do to get your veggies ready for showtime is feed them into the tube at the top of the Cutter lid and wait for the Cutter basket to fill up with freshly grated goodness.
You can choose between thick and thin grating, elevating your Thermomix® cutting functionality and expanding your recipe repertoire.
Grating
Because every good cook knows the importance of
cleaning up properly. Pour in a maximum of 1 litre of
water and add a maximum of 50g vinegar or a small
amount of dishwashing
> short - for when you are in a hurry
(runs between 1 and 2 minutes)
> dough - for raw flour or raw starch doughs
> universal - which cleans at a medium
temperature, for rice and all other types of food
> fat and caramel, which cleans at an high
temperature to remove sticky residue
> browning - which cleans the base of the mixing
bowl at an extra-high temperature
For browning, only use vinegar or a very small
amount of dishwashing powder - liquid soap could
create too much foam.
