I have just been seduced by the World’s Littlest Chef.

Ever fantasized about having your own personal sous chef in your home kitchen? The Thermomix, known as “the most advanced kitchen appliance on the market today” as well as “the World’s Littlest Chef,” is just the thing for you.

Kalayra Angelyys beside her Thermomix and some of its creations.

I recently attended a demonstration at local sales consultant Kalayra Angelyys’ home and was absolutely stunned and amazed at all this appliance can do.

Although some may see it as a tad pricey ($1,600), the Thermomix combines over 10 appliances, is incredibly engineered and is a major space saver. Functions include: chopping, beating, mixing, whipping, grinding, kneading, mincing, grating, juicing, blending, heating, stirring, steaming and weighing food.

Basically you can forget buying a food processer, steamer, rice cooker, juicer, blender, scale, crock-pot, mixer—this ‘little chef’ can cook, sauté and stir.

So, for example, it can make risotto all by itself. It also makes ice cream, churns butter, grinds spices, makes dough and can make flour out of dried chickpeas in no time.

I also love the fact that you don’t need measuring cups and spoons—the built-in scale weighs as you add ingredients. As the website will tell you: “Thermomix began when a mother in Germany wanted to make her own baby food for her new child, but current appliances were not able to achieve this. She dreamed of a machine that could grind food into small enough pieces for her child to eat and cook at the same time, and so was born the idea of the Thermomix.”

It is so easy to use making it a Godsend for busy people who are “kitchen challenged.”

I watched Kalayra make a pumpkin soup. The Thermomix first chopped the onion, then with the addition of butter, it sautéed it. She then added the pumpkin, set the timer and it first cooked it and then with the push of a button pureed it—voila soup.

After serving, she added soap and water—and yes folks, this helpful appliance also cleans itself.

Kalayra says that celebrated chef Rod Butters at Raudz loves his Thermomix and finds it an extra pair of hands in his bustling kitchen.

It’s not hard to believe how popular this machine is in Europe. It is actually known as one of the top choices for a wedding gift.

It’s also an amazing tool for those who are health conscious or who have special dietary needs such as those with celiac disease, diabetes or those who are lactose intolerant. With Thermomix you can make things from scratch.

As Kalayra explains, “The health benefits are many. Avoid the guesswork—no preservatives, colorings, flavourings. Make your own almond milk in six minutes, a sorbet in 60 seconds, all at a fraction of the price in the stores. You will save money and eat well.”

I think this would be the perfect Christmas gift too (hint)—they also offer payment plans.

I love my Thermomix! I use it just about every day -Suanne Kiges

By the age of ten, I knew how to prepare full meals and I was responsible for cooking for myself most of the
time. It was a fair arrangement because otherwise my mom would have had to cook two different
meals.  I ate the salad that she prepared every night and any vegetarian sides, such as a baked potato and I made my main
course. That was in the 70′s and it wasn’t as easy to be vegetarian back then as it is
now. There wasn’t the variety of frozen dinners, pre-packaged foods, and mock meats that we have
today. I ate a lot of beans and rice and pasta.

By the time I got to University there were a few more options and I became a junk food
vegetarian. Besides the frozen dinners, I lived on Mac and cheese and pizza. By the time I graduated, I crave more wholesome food and started cooking
more. I liked to cook but found it very time consuming for my busy schedule, so, I still dined out a lot.

About 20 years ago, I decided to go vegan. I started cooking more but still ate out around 3 time a
week. There were a lot move veggie options in restaurants by then. Once I met my husband Bill, that
changed. He was vegetarian and once we moved in we settled into a routine where I did most of the cooking and he did most of the clean
up. I enjoyed cooking more than before because I had someone to share a meal
with. However, I still had a hectic schedule and we still ate out at least once a week.

Now that were in our middle age, our metabolisms have changed and try not to eat out as
often. I prepare even more nutritious meals now and try to keep them as low fat as
possible. It has been hard though because work gets in the way.

A few months ago Bill and I went to a cooking demonstration at Fantan’s Kitchen. They used a Thermomix to
cook. I was smitten with it. How can anyone blame me? It’s an all in one
machine! It weighs, chops, cooks, crushes, whips, mixes, steams, blends, kneads, grinds, simmers, grates, and
mills. It is a wiz machine! It takes the place of a blender, food processor, crock pot, mixer, rice maker, juicer, ice cream maker and bread maker.

When we got home, I couldn’t stop thinking about it. Bill said that since our appliances were so old, that once a couple had to be replaced, we should get the Thermomix
instead. Promptly, my blender and mixer stopped working. Honest! Bill and I went to another cooking demonstration for the Thermomix and we invested in it.

I love my Thermomix! I use it just about every day. The Thermomix has changed my
life! My time in the kitchen has been greatly reduced. Because the Thermomix kneads dough, I make my own
bread. I had a bread maker but I was never happy with the results. The Thermomix makes perfect bread and our favourite, pizza dough.

We eat an even healthier diet now because I have been able to incorporate more veggies into my
cooking. I just throw them in the Thermomix and they are chopped within 3
seconds. Then I add just a tiny bit of extra virgin olive oil and set the time and temperature and within a few minutes they are
sautéd.  I also make pudding, gravy and sauces with my Thermomix. I just throw all the ingredients in, set the time and temperature and it does all the constant stirring for
me. The Thermomix has saved us money. I make my own soy yogurt now. It is so easy to make!

The Thermomix even cleans it’s self. Just add some warm water and a drop of soap and run it for a
minute. It is also dishwasher safe.

I tease Bill by saying, “if it ever comes down to the Thermomix or you, I would choose the Thermomix.

“I have discovered a unique kitchen appliance which has refuelled my passion for creating delicious food: The Thermomix TM31.

All I need to do is scale my ingredients, set the timer and temperature and I am free to focus on other tasks. I am equally impressed by the consistency and quality of the product my Thermomix turns out.

Thermomix I have been enjoying happy cooking every day , so exciting to share with others for easy & healthy cooking. Using Thermomix to serve my husband is really a bonus, he likes Mashed Potatoes, Rye Bread, Pumpkin Soup, Chowder & any kind of Creamy soup, then he will request Ice Cream every night after meals, he gave up to go to Metro Town to have C$ 4.5 for 2 scoops Italian ice Cream after I bought
Thermomix , because I could use that making more than 1.5 liter of any favorite & low fat ice Cream in 1 minute at home. All in one pot + 23 functions in one make it so easy, clean & saving time for cooking.

My parents live down stairs, they both are over 82, so every 2nd day I make either Soya Milk, or Almond Milk, or Brown Rice Milk & Japanese Red Bean Steam Buns for them, each milk takes me total less than 15 minutes to cook & grind in same pot, that makes 2 seniors very happy & nutrition food. I even make my own Western bread, Dumpling, Noodles, Chinese Steam Bun, Cakes, Meat/shrimp & fish balls in few minutes, trust me all of this home work is half the time of traditional cooking for sure.

I will say, Thermomix really makes me happy in my retired life, all my 30 years of collecting multi culture recipes, I started to transfer it to my
Thermomix cooking, I am also writing my own Thermomix recipes over 120 recipes already, hope finish the pictures shooting then I will publish to share with my friends &
Thermomix customers.

For your information, I have 2 grandsons, Thermomix was the best gift to my Daughter in-law, before she did not have much time to cook, but now she uses
Thermomix to make meals for kids & whole family, she even asked me to share with her more of my new recipes.

I f this machine could have been imported to Canada earlier, It will have benefited more people to cook easier. I
am very proud of Thermomix that is like a Mercedes for a woman in the kitchen, I will give my daughter one for a wedding gift sooner or later too, because she loves cooking also.
