Raw, Gluten-Free, Allergies? The answer is Thermomix
If you have food allergies, want or need to eat gluten-free foods or have decided to join the growing raw food movement, Thermomix can be a precious tool. Since you’re cooking from scratch and preparing your own ingredients, you can be sure of everything that’s in the food you eat — and what’s not in it.
If you’re going Raw:
In your Thermomix you can create instant salads and Australian nutritionist Cyndi O’Meara‘s raw power breakfast, CADA. Raw soups can be warmed to 37°C if desired. You can grind nuts and spices and make raw nut butters. Thermomix is the perfect tool for blending to utter smoothness, as well as being able to heat and stir lumpy or smooth dishes at precise temperatures.
If you’re gluten intolerant:
Thermomix grinds so well, you can make your own flours from corn, rice, lentils, and chick peas, to name just a few. Since the bowl and blade are made from dishwasher-safe stainless steel they’re easy to clean so you can be sure there’s no gluten in the bowl or on the blade.
There are lots of Thermomix fans with blogs on the web, and many of them offer specialised recipes for gluten intolerances, allergies and raw diets. Among them are these superb blogs:
Super Kitchen Machine – celiac diet
Super Kitchen Machine – raw food diet
Quirky Cooking – wheat free, gluten free, dairy free cooking with Thermomix
Tenina.com has raw, vegetarian and gluten-free categories
So join the Thermomix revolution for fast and easy, healthy cooking in no time!
Many thanks to UK Thermomix Director Janie Turner for her views on raw foods and gluten-free cooking.
Here, here, Helene! I couldn’t agree more. Thanks for providing so many helpful recipes and tips for people with special nutritional needs.
Thanks for posting links to my blog! I feel the true potential of Thermomix to help people with special nutritional needs has not yet been realized. It’s SUCH a great tool for this, and it really does allow us to try new, healthier ways of eating. As our society begins to pay more attention to alternative ways of eating, I’m certain Thermomix will play a larger, more noticed role. Thanks for drawing attention to this fact.
