If you are in the process of opening a new restaurant, one of the most important steps is choosing the right professional kitchen equipment for the focal point of your business. Our chef, Maximilian Zedelmeier has compiled a list of his 5 must-have appliances for your professional kitchen.
Combi oven
A combi oven allows you to cook in different modes, combining the right heat and humidity needed for perfect results. Besides temperature control, the most important element to control in an oven is humidity because it is what transports the heat. Electrolux Professional’s air-o-steam Combi Oven is the only appliance capable of measuring humidity by monitoring the quantity of air in the oven cavity.
Blast chiller
With a professional combi oven, you can master very high temperatures and a powerful professional blast chiller allows you to master the process the other way round. You can use the Electrolux Cook&Chill system to bring food temperatures from 300°C down to -42°C. The Cook&Chill process helps you save preparation time, keep hygiene and food safety levels high, and maintain the most impressive colors, textures and flavors of your food.
