RATIONAL’s Multibaker Accessory Makes Breakfast Easy
 
SCHAUMBURG, Ill., March XX, 2007 – Overburdened catering chefs can breathe a bit easier. RATIONAL, renowned for its patented SelfCooking Center®, today announced a cure for the headaches and anxiety typically spurred by large last-minute breakfast orders: the Multibaker. A new accessory for the SelfCooking Center, the Multibaker provides a highly efficient method to prepare fried eggs and omelettes.
 
In addition to its proficiency with eggs, the Multibaker is ideal for baking mini tortes and cakes as well as tortillas. The automated SelfCooking Center can accommodate as many as 20 Multibaker trays at once. The SelfCooking Center can cook up to 120 fried eggs in five minutes using the Multibaker at full capacity, making it an indispensable accessory for hotel chefs, corporate caterers and public catering establishments.
 
The Multibaker is constructed to evenly distribute cooking heat, which ensures consistent results within each tray and from tray to tray within the SelfCooking Center. Additionally, the accessory is treated with a non-stick coating to eliminate the need for the use of cooking sprays. 
 
“The Multibaker accessory makes a formerly labor-intensive task – like cooking more than 100 eggs simultaneously – simple and fast enough for one cook to manage,” said Aidan Waite, RATIONAL USA corporate trainer. “More importantly, theSelfCooking Center’s closely monitored climate ensures that the egg whites are solid, while the yolks remain fluid.”
 
About the SelfCooking Center®
The SelfCooking Center has simplified the cooking process to the press of a button, saving time and expensive training and retraining due to staff turnover. It detects product-specific requirements, the size of the food to be cooked and load size. Then, the SelfCooking Center automatically calculates cooking time, temperature and ideal cooking cabinet climate on an individual basis. It continuously monitors and adjusts 3,600 times per hour to achieve the desired result. The SelfCooking Center also requires 28 percent less space in the kitchen but cooks up to 15 percent faster than conventional Combi-Steamers. It is available in gas or electric.
