Cook meat and vegetables at the same time in the same oven and the device wiill help to get each part indivgiduzally cooked to the dersired point. Cook fish inside an ice block without melting the ice ...

Interesting technology, but if that's the future of cooking, I'd rather stay in the past. Where is the passion in it?

Agreed.

And no matter how good it is, an oven can't taste the food...

I probably go even further than you guys in my Luddite approach to cooking tech; I don't say that nothing interesting ever comes out in the new gadget line - but I'm of the opinion that if the same results can not be achieved using a hob, oven and grill then it probably isn't a thing that will interest me. I don't have a food mixer, processor, blender, blitzer or anything like that. I use a hand whisk, a seive, knives and chopping boards and that's about it. The most out on a limb cooking aid I posses is a blow-torch [good for caramelising the sugar on top of a brule]. Suve cooking looks like a useful technique, but the rest I can do without.

[I'm thinking of getting one of those wok shaped pans with a handle - I've seen Italian chef's using them in their pasta sauce preparation - and a deep fat fryer is a possibility for it's safety aspect coz I'd like to start doing some tempura coated stuff or even deep fried chicken.]

Yeah, and a pot of boiling oil always makes me hell of a nervous.

Absolutely! Yet as a kid we used a 'chip pan' almost daily and never gave it a moment's thought.

Ah, the ignorance of youth.

I always use my heavy cast iron wok for deep frying.
