The present application firstly discloses a cooking system comprising two cooking apparatuses, each capable of producing a cooked food from food or food ingredient(s). The first cooking apparatus comprises a plurality of microwave ovens which can be moved by an intermittent motion mechanism or a transport system. The second cooking apparatus comprises a cookware and a motion mechanism to move the cookware to dispense a cooked food to a food container. A semi-cooked food is produced by a microwave oven of the first cooking apparatus and is used as an ingredient in the second cooking apparatus to produce cooked food.

A measured powder dispenser has a hopper feeding powder down into a measured dispensing mechanism. The measured dispensing mechanism has an inlet and an outlet and a measuring container operable therebetween. The measuring container is rotatably engaged about a rotation axis generally orthogonal to an inlet axis of the inlet such that an exterior surface thereof moves across the inlet when the measuring container rotates. The measuring container has an interior volume adjustable measurement chamber recessed within the exterior surface such that, in use, at a first rotational position, the measurement chamber aligns with the inlet to accept a measured amount of powder therein from the power container and, when rotated to a second rotational position, the exterior surface seals across the inlet and the measurement chamber aligns with the outlet to dispense the measured amount of powder therefrom.

A smart cooking device and method are disclosed in the present disclosure. The smart cooking device includes a controller, a food material vessel, a storage vessel, a water storage vessel, a motor and a lifting and translating apparatus. The food material vessel is configured to store a food material and is provided with a first valve. The storage vessel is provided with a second valve. The water storage vessel is configured to accommodate a liquid to clean the food material. The motor is configured to be capable of driving the storage vessel to rotate according to the control of the controller. The lifting and translating apparatus is connected with the storage vessel and configured to be capable of moving according to the control of the controller thus to drive the storage vessel to move to the food material vessel, the water storage vessel or a cooking apparatus.

A cooking apparatus used for filling and decorating of foods, comprising in some embodiments a one-piece, funnel-shaped bag with a soft side wall, having an open first end at the “top” through which food material and coloring agents can be inserted into the bag and a closed second end at the “bottom” end of the funnel, with an integral, malleable, conical shaped, discharge orifice. The orifice may have serrations or ridges extending inwardly from the internal wall of the orifice, running longitudinally or parallel to the cone axis. The orifice may be initially closed or manufactured with a small opening. The orifice may be made of a material capable of being cut to yield an exit opening. The inwardly extending serrations that remain after a cut may insure that the material is “treated” as it is expelled from the bag through the orifice to yield a ribbon candy design.

This device will allow an individual to store and cook Food by pre-programming the pressure cooker for that purpose. Additionally, additional spices may be used depending on Specific recipes, and a blender or chopper may also be required if it is required by the recipe. The operation of this device may also be controlled remotely.
