      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.

  • Hi bjajun, yes I have

    Hi bjajun, yes I have increased the cooking temp to 95C for the icing.

    Should have been higher as cornflour does not thicken at 80C.

  • I had only marginal success

    I had only marginal success with this.  The taste was great, the base turned out well, but the top layer did not set very well.  I am wondering if extra time cooking the cornflour & coconut milk might help.

  • Hi Yeahright0! Buckwheat

    Submitted by Thermo Nutritionist on 1. February 2016 - 16:50.

    Hi Yeahright0!

    Buckwheat groats are whole or 'grains' of buckwheat. Buckwheat is not a grain or a careal, but a seed from a plant. Oficial term is 'groats'. Funny word, huh!

    You can use buckwheat flour in the recipe as well but the groats give it a nice crunch.
