Recipes and Cooking Tips
Do you have Thermomix recipes?
Absolutely! For all recipes that work with the Thermomix, just explore the "thermomix" tag right on homecooktales.com.
I don't have an ingredient, can I replace it?
Definitely! Cooking should be flexible. If you're missing an ingredient, we often note substitute options in the "tips" section of each recipe.
Can I adapt the quantities of a recipe?
Yes, you can! Each recipe lists the serving size. Just increase or decrease the amounts to match the number of people you're feeding. If you adjust the portions, remember: cooking times may need to change too.
Do you provide nutritional information?
We do offer nutritional breakdowns on many recipes, though not across all of them yet. Details are automatically calculated and estimated using AI, so they're just for general reference.
