      TM 5
      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.

Tip

Adapted from a Donna Hay recipe in the sunday style magazine.  I added more parmesan and mint for a different texture and flavour.

This pesto is perfect over meat or fish, either before or after cooking.  Also great tossed through a pasta dish.

Use yeast flakes instead of parmesan if dairy-free.
