摘要:
A method for regulating a cooking process of a cooking product in an oven of a steamer, during which the moisture in the oven coming from the cooking product is at least periodically determined over time by a moisture sensor. During a measuring phase there is no introduction of steam into the steam oven and the moisture sensor is evaluated. For a given cooking process with fixed times for the supply of steam, on the basis of the moisture sensor evaluation during the measuring phase, the end of cooking is determined. Prior to the measuring phase and during a steam phase, steam is introduced into the oven, the steam supply being terminated following the steam phase and prior to the measuring phase during a ventilating phase. During the ventilating phase the steam concentration in the oven is greatly reduced.

A multi heating zone cooking pot construction (10) including a receptacle unit comprising a receptacle member (20) having a base portion (21) and a peripheral sidewall (22) which are formed integrally with a divider unit (12) including a main divider wall member (30) and a secondary divider wall member (31) which divider the interior of the receptacle member (20) into segregated compartments (28, 29, 29') including an enlarged compartment (28) and two smaller compartments (29, 29'). The base portion (21) of each compartment is provided with a looped heat transfer coil (40) wherein the number of heat transfer loops (41) in at least two of the compartments (28, 29, 29') are different to produce more or less heat in the respective compartments (28, 29, 29').

A lid for a pressure cooker has two radially slidable jaws with upstanding lips, respectively. A locking plate can slide transversely outwards from the position shown so that the lips ride along limbs of apertures and are thereafter held, to prevent radial movement, by the plate. The plate is held in its transverse outward position by a plunger (not shown) of a locking valve that is engaged in an aperture in the plate. The plunger is released to fall from an uplifted locking position when pressure in the cooker falls below a predetermined level and to enable the plunger to become slidable along the aperture. This allows the plate to move and unlock the jaws so that the lid can be removed.

The invention is a single utensil that combines the features of a cooking vessel with those of a strainer. The invention comprises a pot having a spout. The lid for the pot has a downwardly extending skirt which includes a straining section. The lid also has locking means on the skirt which cooperate with locking means provided on the inside of the pot. In use, the lid is placed on the pot so that the straining section is not in communication with the spout. In this position, the skirt will seal the opening created by the spout. Once the cooking is done and the user wishes to drain off the excess liquid, he or she rotates the lid to align the strainer section of the skirt with the spout. When the lid is so positioned, the locking means on the skirt of the lid will engage the cooperating locking means on the inside of the pot to lock the lid in place. The pot and lid can then be lifted as a unit to drain the liquid from the pot.

A steam-pressure cooking utensil has a utensil and a lid which are both connected with one another by a bayonetlike or similar lock. A cooking and safety valve is arranged in the lid, and includes a valve member which is connected to the lid and a valve which is held pressed against a valve seat by means of a spring. Furthermore, the steam-pressure cooking utensil has a locking mechanism which permits relative rotation of the lid and utensil and thus an opening thereof only after the pressure in the utensil has been removed. In order to permit in the steam-pressure cooking utensil the steam-removal and unlocking, or to permit the closing of the cooking and safety valve and the locking, in a manner assuring that no residual pressure exists in the utensil during opening, the valve is provided with a receiving arrangement, into which extends an operating member which is connected rigidly with the locking mechanism in a manner so that, during an unlocking of the lid and utensil, the valve is automatically lifted off its seat against the spring tension, while during locking of the lid the valve is placed on its seat.

An emulsion preparation arrangement includes an emulsion preparation tank, a jacket which surrounds the tank on its sides and bottom and contains hot water, a plurality of tubes for supplying components of the emulsion and withdrawing the emulsion, and a plurality of ducts each surrounding a respective one of the tubes and containing hot water for heating the ducts with the water in the jacket and the ducts at a temperature of 80.degree. C., to enable the emulsion to be discharged at a temperature of approximately 50.degree. C.

Disclosed is a vapor-jacketed cooking kettle having a compact, self-contained, gas-fired combustion system. The tiltable kettle includes a gas-fired cylindrical power burner which fires radially into a combustion chamber below a jet plate which in turn is closely spaced below the bottom wall of a water-containing jacket. Hot combustion gases produced by the burner heat and jet plate to temperatures at which it radiates large amounts of heat to the jacket wall. The hot gases also pass through holes in the plate to form high velocity jets which impinge on the jacket wall and transfer heat by convection. Heat transferred by the jet impingement and radiation vaporizes water in the jacket and the resulting steam cooks food products in the kettle. Thermal efficiencies of 70 percent or higher are achieved by the tilting kettle system.
摘要:
A device and method for steaming and presenting of food deploys a spacer that rests on top of a cookware vessel. The spacer has a lower inner flange to support a steaming rack. A leg supported serving or presentation rack is adapted for lifting, supporting and presenting the steamed food when the spacer and steaming rack are lowered over it. The spacer has a larger inner diameter than an outer diameter of the presentation rack so that the spacer may be lowered around the presentation rack to engage the steaming rack along the presentation rack. The presentation rack has a sufficient height relative to the spacer height to dispose the food proximal to or above the rim of the spacer.
