I have always believed that the selection and use of quality culinary equipment can greatly simplify a chef’s work in the kitchen. In addition to good pans and knives I personally use the Thermomix: a multi-purpose kitchen appliance combining a heating element, motor for fast or slow blending and stirring, and a weighing scale.
As a Thermomix advisor I would be very happy to answer any questions you might have if you are interested in learning more. Click the link here to send me an email

Absolutely gutted that your Chamonix adventure has come to an end as I most certainly would have loved to have taken a cookery course there

Hi Kate,
What a fantastic experience yesterday's "adventure" was. An opportunity to meet new people, in such a relaxed environment.
Your explanation of each and every recipe was detailed, very humourous and delivered in such a wonderful location.
Each and every dish you provided was clearly enjoyed by all attendees, which was evidenced by how quiet everything was at the time of eating.
Clive is an absolute legend and many thanks to him for a great welcome and washing so many dishes, I am so glad my wife did not witness this activity. I now need to explain to her who "helga" is and why she was so clever and such a help in the preparation of dishes.
A fantastic day and one I would love to attend again.
