Thermomix Recipe Communities

In these recipe community sites, Thermomix users share their own creations. These are uncurated collections - some recipes are better than others! On most of these sites, it is easy to add the recipes to your own Created recipes collection, using an Add to Cookidoo button.

Ingredient Quantities and Substitutions

If you don't have an ingredient called for in some recipe, or if you do not like some ingredient, you can often substitute something close. For some suggestions, see https://thermofun.com/thermofun-herb-spice-substitute/, https://www.allrecipes.com/article/common-ingredient-substitutions/, or similar sites (search for "ingredient substitutions"). If the quantities or ingredients are too different from a recipe, the TM6 may refuse to continue the recipe in guided cooking, but you can continue manually.
