The run up to Christmas is an especially busy time in the bakery. Rich Christmas cakes, mince pies, spicy Christmas cookies, brandy snaps, Florentines and traditional Christmas puddings are all in demand alongside savoury pork pies and party quiches. The main problem is cooking all these different specialities at the same time – they need different cooking times and there could be a risk of taste transfer between dishes.
he latest version of Rational’s SelfCooking Center takes care of all that. Its new baking mode is designed specifically to cook all sorts of different products absolutely perfectly at a touch. All the bakers need to do is load the product into the SelfCooking Center, push a touch pad to tell the oven what is to be baked, shut the door and let it get on with the job.
While the SelfCooking Center does the baking you can get on with the important jobs, from recipe selection and ordering ingredients to arranging the displays and looking after the customers, You don’t have to programme the unit, monitor the baking or adjust the controls. The SelfCooking Center produces consistent, high quality results every time, because it bakes each product in a perfect ‘cooking climate’ with the correct balance of humidity and heat.
What’s more with the SelfCooking Center you can bake different different products at the same time. As long as you ‘tell’ the SelfCooking Center what you’ve loaded in it will do the rest and calculate just how to make sure your mince pies, quiches and brandy snaps are all done to perfection with no hint of taste transfer.
The SelfCooking Center is available in a variety of sizes, from six-grid counter top units to high volume 40-grid models, in gas and electric versions. Rational is running a series of free seminars showing how the SelfCooking Center and latest combi steamer technology can be used in bakeries to save time, expand menus and save energy.
