Your partner has big culinary ambitions, but the counter real estate in your apartment is limited, hurting the prospects of how many appliances you can fit in the kitchen. This is where the Thermomix TM6 comes in. The TM6 is an all-in-one kitchen appliance that can cook dishes on multiple levels. It can also emulsify, whip and whisk, sauté and caramelize, steam, ferment, stir, mix, blend, chip, grind and knead ingredients within a small footprint that is roughly the size of an air frier or Instant Pot. The appliance comes with a touch screen that has access to more than 80,000 guided recipes as well as digital meal planning tools and shopping lists, available via Thermomix’s Cookidoo subscription.
