  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!

Tip

Flour

As I am coeliac I have created this for me, but the original recipe used normal flour, you can also use all cornflour, custard powder, what ever flour you want to try if you want to.

Eggs

You really want a thick ribbon when you're mixing your eggs and sugar together, this takes time and is what makes the cake light... You can also do this step over a pot of hot water or even use a hand mixer, the heat just helps to stabilize the eggs and they hold more air. Leave the M/C off it is IMPORTANT as it allows the steam to escape and not thin out your eggs. You dont need to add heat at this step, I did it cold for years beofre I got my Thermie.

Cooling

Cover with Tea Towel as this slows the steam down and can help to prevent a dry cake. Its a great trick leave on for 5-10 minutes before your turn it out

Fat

You will see some sponges will hand a fat source to it, and you can with this step add it to the mix beofre you add any dry ingredients and only about 100gm or so of either Fat or oil
