There is more and more equipment to help cook, and the housewife has a question, which one will better cope with kitchen duties. Seeing this state of things, manufacturers endow devices with enhanced functionality. This applies to our current applicants for the love of the mistress. So what is better, a multi-baker or an electric grill? Let's get it right.
Multi baker
The multibaker is an electric waffle iron with an expanded set of options. In addition to directly baking various types of waffles (sand, potato, Viennese, Belgian, etc.), it is easy to cook in it:
- gingerbread cookies;
- hot sandwiches;
- Donuts
- cookies and others
The internal surfaces of modern frying appliances are non-stick. Teflon is usually used for this, although ceramic is better. Other advantages of a multi-baker are:
- removable panels: for cookies, sausages in dough, rolls, for frying, pizza, etc .;
- compact size;
- timer cooking;
- sound notification.
In addition, the latest versions are remotely controlled, which, of course, improves usability. However, there are also disadvantages.
- small frying area: not everything fits;
- additional removable panels are expensive;
- the case heats up, even the handles;
- dishes are prepared for a long time due to low power: a maximum of 1,400 watts.
Electric grill
Modern home grills prepare food in a contact and non-contact way. In the first case, meat or fish is fried on a hot baking sheet, as in a pan; and in the second, food is put on skewers and baked due to the heat coming from the heating elements.
There are 3 types of electric grill:
- open
- closed;
- combined (large models).
Pros of grills:
- choice of coatings: teflon, ceramics, granite, marble, grating;
- wide functionality;
- self-cleaning option;
- selection of sizes and installation;
- delayed start;
- drip tray;
- vertical cooking.
Claims are usually made about:
- the need for washing due to splattering of fat;
- high price for special models (restaurant, for shawarma, grilled chicken);
- power consumption;
- the abundance of soot and smoke.
How to make a choice?
What to choose, grill or multi-baker, you choose. After all, everything depends on what will be prepared most. If a family cannot live without a flour and sandwich, it is definitely worth taking a multi-bakery with interchangeable panels. By the way, for models from Redmond, the basic configuration contains 6 additional forms, and an additional 40 different nozzles are sold.
The owners of catering facilities use large electric grills with skewers for cooking shawarma, grilled chicken; smaller devices - for hamburgers. By the way, there are homemade small vertical grills for 1 chicken - especially for lovers of whole baked chicken.
Choose what you like and cook with pleasure!
