The combination of circulating hot air and steam
in the space saving, high performance CombiĆ
Oven/Steamer leads to improvements in the folĆ
lowing areas:
D increased productivity in the kitchen
D a reduction in capital expenditures for multiple
equipment replacement
D a wider range of menu choices
D a simplified cleaning process
The work process is simplified since products are
prepared on or in steam table āpans āand trays.
Food can be cooked, stored, and transported with
āthe āsame āāpans. āSmall āamounts of product can be
processed efficiently; preĆcooked and conveĆ
nience foods can be reheated within minutes.
āMany frozen foods can be processed without preĆ
thawing. This flexibility in preparation reduces the
need for kettles and steam tables since there is no
need for large amounts of food to be kept warm for
long periods of time.
Today the improvement of food quality is more imĆ
portant than ever. Vegetables are cooked in the
Blodgett CombiĆOven/Steamer without water at
the optimal temperature of just under 100_C
(212_F), maintaining valuable vitamins, minerals,
nutrients and trace elements. Cooking meat in the
Combi results in less shrinkage and a firmer, juicier
product. The Blodgett CombiĆOven/Steamer is
being used more and more for baking. Steam and
Hot āAir āmodes āmake āit āa āgeneral āpurpose baking
appliance.
