Thermomix TM6: The heart of the food processor. The TM6 is equipped with an enlarged touch display compared to the previous model. Recipes are selected on it, settings are made and the timer is activated. The mixing bowl is placed in the middle.
Mixing bowl with handle: Almost all dishes are prepared in the mixing bowl. It can mix, grind, puree and even heat and cook. The mixing bowl comes with a knife, knife seal, lid, lid seal, base and measuring cup. All parts are also available separately in the Thermomix shop. So if something breaks, you do not have to buy the mixing bowl and accessories from scratch.
Splash protection: The splash protection prevents anything from splashing, even at high temperatures above 120 degrees Celsius, but the steam nevertheless escapes. It is required for high-temperature preparations such as browning, browning and caramelizing.

Spatula: With the improved spatula for the TM6 with flexible tip, you can easily stir dishes in the pot or take them out of the mixing bowl. The spatula can be inserted into the mixer through the lid opening up to the attached safety collar. This prevents it from being carried away by the blender. The spatula can also be used to easily and safely lift the cooking insert out of the mixing bowl.
Cooking insert with lid: The new cooking insert can be used in many ways. You can use it to filter juices, cook side dishes and even use it as a sieve. The lid, which is connected to the insert and cannot be removed, prevents the cooking insert from being overfilled.

Simply add water to the mixing bowl and attach the filled Varoma and lid to it. If any part of the Varoma is damaged, you can buy the lid, container and shelf separately in the Thermomix shop.

How do varoma and cooking insert differ?
In the cooking insert, vegetables are traditionally prepared gently. For this, water is poured into the mixing bowl and the cooking insert placed over it. Food can be prepared even more gently and in a time-saving manner in the Varoma steamer. On the official YouTube channel from Thermomix, it is recommended to use both attachments at the same time: jacket potatoes can be prepared in the cooking insert, while vegetables, fish and meat are cooked in the Varoma.
