Hints & Tips
• We used a natural Greek-style yoghurt. It’s important to use a yoghurt containing live, active cultures (be sure to check the label) and we recommend using one without any added additives or stabilisers.
• The type of milk used will affect the thickness of your yoghurt (full cream milk yields the best result). If milk has formed a skin on the surface while cooling, remove and discard. The addition of milk powder also results in a thicker yoghurt.
• Keep the other half of the vanilla pod to make vanilla sugar or use in another batch of yoghurt.
• To protect against the possibility of rust, 30 g freshly squeezed lemon juice (½ lemon) must be added to the water in the mixing bowl when heating water for more than 4 consecutive hours.
• Before starting your yoghurt, be sure to clean your utensils thoroughly and sterilise jars to eliminate any unwanted bacteria.
• To check the temperature of your milk while it cools, simply place the mixing bowl back into the Thermomix® base and it will register the current temperature.• For a thicker yoghurt, line the simmering basket with a nut milk bag or 2 layers of muslin cloth. Place over a large bowl or jug and strain for 2 hours or overnight. The longer you strain it, the thicker it will become.
• You can store yoghurt in sealable jars in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

 Sauerkraut

Ingredients
• 450-500g glass jar x 2
• 800g cabbage• 1 TBSP sea salt
• 1 tsp dried juniper berries
• 1 tsp caraway seeds

Directions
1. Add half of the cabbage, chop 5sec / speed 4
2. Chop the other half portion of the cabbage
3. Remove the cabbage into a large glass bowl
4. Add the salt and use your hands to knead
5. Add the seeds and berries
6. Spoon the content into the 2 glass jars
7. Place the jars into the varoma dish
8. Activate Fermentation mode 70c / 12 hours
9. Leave on the counter and continue fermentation at room temperature for another 48 hours.
10. Serve immediately, leave for further fermentation in the jar (see Tip) or tighten lid and store in refrigerator (see Tip).

Hints & Tips
• After the Thermomix® fermentation, sauerkraut is ready to eat, however for a more intense flavour keep on counter and let ferment at room temperature for another 48 hours. After this time, store in refrigerator.
• Start with fresh vegetables. Wash all surfaces and containers that will be used with hot sudsy water and rinse well with very hot water before use. To ensure preservation, clean jar and lid thoroughly in hot soapy water. Rinse by pouring boiling water over them. Prepare for filling by placing clean jar and lid in a baking pan and heat in oven at 212°F until required.• Pour cabbage mixture into jar while jar is still warm.
• Place jar in refrigerator to stop fermentation, making sure cabbage remains submerged in liquid.
• The fermenting container should not be metal or have scratches or cracks which could harbour harmful bacteria. Some metal containers (other than stainless steel) may react with the acid in the food and give it a strange flavour or colour and could leach into the food.
• Use the amount of salt called for in the recipe as it is essential to its safety (texture and flavour). Do NOT reduce or eliminate the amount of salt as it is essential to the safety of the fermentation process.
• Fermented foods can be stored for up to three months, or longer, without losing their quality and good taste. Fermented food needs to reach a pH level of 4.6 or lower (which indicates it is acidic enough to be safe). After fermenting, products must either be stored in the refrigerator or canned properly.Try not to disturb the vegetables during fermentation to reduce the amount of oxygen reaching the vegetables so that mould doesn’t develop. After fermenting, be sure to handle fermented foods with clean hands and do not let them come into contact with contaminated meat or fish or surfaces that have not been adequately cleaned.
• Thermomix® enables a stable environmental temperature, which is important for the fermentation process.
