Multi-cook in a multi-cooker: what is it and how to cook in this mode

At choosing a multicooker you need to pay attention not only to the manufacturer and technical specifications, but also to the built-in functions of the equipment. For users who like to improvise with new dishes, they will definitely need the additional Multi-Cook function. We'll figure out what the Multi-Chef program is and in which multi-cookers a similar option is provided.

What is "Multipovar" and how to use this option correctly

For a particular dish, you can apply an automatic program with a basic set of recipes and modes. But if the recipe is complex, you need to set certain temperature and time parameters for specific products. In this case, you can’t do without manual tuning.

The presence of a "multi-product" allows you to create your own recipes for dishes without any restrictions, independently controlling the cooking process. Using this function is very convenient when:

  • it is necessary to gradually add ingredients during cooking;
  • I want to achieve certain tastes of the prepared dish.

When using the "Extinguishing" option, the cooking process takes place in several stages. For example, the program “Stewing” can be installed for 8 hours with a gradual decrease in temperature by 5-10 ° C every hour.

Minimum temperature conditions are mainly needed for the preparation of yoghurts and sour cream. If the device does not have such a function, manual tuning will completely replace it.

The Multi-Cook program is present in all modern multi-cooker models.

Multi-cook mode in different models

The option of independent cooking control is present in models of various brands. But even with manual mode, you cannot set two main indicators to a degree and a second. Some devices have minimum values. For ease of use, the temperature is adjustable in the range from 35 to 180 ° C with different steps, and the minimum cooking time is from 1 minute.

Other multicookers work only at certain temperatures (this indicator also differs in different models). Manual tune-ups offer greater advantages than advanced adjustment models. The principle of operation of devices of different brands with a multi-product is practically no different.

The most popular models with an additional cooking function are:

  • Panasonic (Panasonic) SR-MHS181WTQ. The temperature is adjustable in the range from 40 to 130 ° C, there is no transition to the heating mode. The time varies from 1 minute to 8 hours.

Manufacturer Redmond was the first to introduce an additional feature, and to this day multicookers of this brand are considered one of the best on the market.

Instructions for using the program "Multipovar"

The procedure for preparing different dishes is carried out in stages:

  • Products are being prepared.
  • Then the ingredients must be loaded into the bowl.

  • Then you need to set the temperature and cooking time. In some models it is also possible to choose the option of processing products (stewing, frying, cooking, basic mode, etc.).
  • The workflow is started with the "Start" button.

A set of options in different models

The time for preparing various products is selected individually. Therefore, the process begins with a certain temperature. The table developed by Redmond contains a selection of dishes. For various recipes, temperature limits are indicated.

Buying a slow cooker to use only automatic programs is not very interesting, although in many models there are quite extensive features, and the quality of the dishes is good. The disadvantage is the lack of manual settings, when you can cook according to your own recipes. Therefore, experimenting and creating masterpieces of cooking allows only "Multipovar".

A manual cooker will successfully replace a double boiler, yogurt maker, deep fryer, air grill and other kitchen appliances.
