A cooking tool is disclosed, which comprises a fastening portion detachably provided in a cooking vessel provided above or inside a kitchen appliance to cook food; a sensor sensing a temperature of food which is cooked in the cooking vessel; a transmitter transmitting temperature information sensed by the sensor to the kitchen appliance as an electric signal; and a controller controlling the transmitter to transmit the temperature information sensed by the sensor as an electric signal.

The present disclosure provides a cooking appliance control method, a control device, and a cooking appliance. The cooking appliance acquires cooking effect evaluation information of a cooking appliance provided by a user. The cooking effect evaluation information comprises a plurality of evaluation dimensions for evaluating cooking effects of the cooking appliance and scores of the plurality of evaluation dimensions. The cooking appliance adjusts control parameters of the cooking appliance according to the cooking effect evaluation information, so as to control the cooking of the cooking appliance according to the adjusted control parameters. By adjusting the control parameters of the cooking appliance according to the cooking effect evaluation information, the cooking appliance ensures that the final cooking effect satisfy the requirements of the user and improves the use experience of the user.

The present invention generally relates to anti-stick coatings for cooking utensils, which exhibit improved properties of hydrophobicity and resistance to high temperature. The present invention also relates to a culinary article comprising a support coated in said coating, and a process for applying on the support such a coating according to the invention.

A cooking appliance can include a cooking chamber and an imaging device for capturing an image of a food item inside the chamber. A computing device can be configured to compute a parameter for the food item based on the captured image which can be displayed on a user interface.

A cooking pan assembly includes a pan that may have food items positioned therein. The pan has a bottom end and the bottom end is open to pass grease therethrough when the food items are cooked. A grill is provided and the grill is selectively positioned in a cooking device. The pan is removably coupled to the grill such that the grill passes the grease therethrough. A plurality of couplers is provided and each of the couplers is coupled to the grill. Each of the couplers releasably engages the pan to retain the pan on the grill. A spacing unit is removably positioned in the pan. The spacing unit is structured to have a plurality of compartments and each of the compartments receives one of the food items thereby retaining the food items in an upright position.

An automatic ingredient feeding apparatus (1) comprises a machine frame (100), a feeder mechanism (11), a flipping mechanism (12) and a plurality of compartment door control mechanisms (13). The feeder mechanism comprises a shell (111), the shell is provided therein with a receiving space (114) for receiving a multi-compartment container (110) and is provided therein with a multi-compartment ingredient-dropping chamber (113) facing the receiving space. The flipping mechanism (12) is used for mounting the feeder mechanism (11) on the machine frame (110) and for controlling the feeder mechanism (11) to implement a 180-degree flip. Each of the plurality of compartment door control mechanisms (13) controls an opening/closing of a compartment door (115) of the individual compartment of the multi-compartment ingredient-dropping chamber (113). The flipping mechanism (12) and the plurality of compartment door control mechanisms (13) are all connected to a master control device (7).

A method of cleaning a roaster bowl having a pouring lip and a cover (e.g., sugar or other coating is adhered to the bowl, its pouring lip and the cover). Water is added to the roaster bowl and the cover is placed over the roaster bowl. An appropriately sized and located steam vent is disposed between the cover and roaster bowl, adjacent to the bowl's pouring lip. The roaster bowl is heated to boil the water to produce steam that dissolves the sugar adhered to the roaster bowl and to the underside of the cover. Steam exiting the bowl via the vent condenses on the pouring lip to dissolve the sugar that is adhered to the pouring lip, and the sugar-laden steam drips back into the bowl thus cleaning the pouring lip.
