No problem – you’ll have results that look and taste exactly right.
Advantages you’ll enjoy: You save working time without sacrificing quality.
Beef tips, ham, pork loin, beef brisket. The classics. Prepared gently. Little effort, lots of flavour. Just put the meat into the iCombi Pro cold, select the results you want, and wait for the cooking system to take care of business – for example using RATIONAL’s delta-T method, where the cooking cabinet temperature starts very low and then gradually increases along with the core temperature. It’s an extremely gentle process yielding exceptional results with minimal cooking losses. And if necessary, you can keep the finished dish at serving temperature for up to 23 hours and stay delicious.
Stocks and broth.
Tedious preparation work and physical stress are things of the past now, including with stocks and broth. Because the iVario can make them unsupervised, too.
Simple and healthy. Fish, vegetables, meat using the sous-vide method. Just prepare products as usual, seal them into vacuum bags with marinades or spices, and then cook them in a low-temperature water bath for a long period. The cooking cabinet temperature is just slightly higher than the target core temperature, giving you buttery soft results in an safe process with almost undetectable cooking losses. If you like, you can even prepare different products at the same time.
Confit: typically French, typically delicious. Food is put into oil or its own fat, and then cooked at a constant temperature. The key is to keep the cooking medium hot enough to satisfy hygienic requirements, while making sure that it doesn’t exceed a certain core temperature, which could compromise quality. The solution: the iVario’s cooking intelligence. Confit lends pulled pork, duck legs, vegetables, or even fish and seafood a very special note.
Extra-special. Tender meat, flavourful vegetables, perfectly done fish – extraordinary taste experiences made easy.
