A steam stove contains: a body, a steaming module, two flowing conduits, and two heating modules. The body includes a steam room defined therein and being opened or closed, a water tank formed on a bottom of the steam room and accommodating the steaming module, two vertical partitions vertically arranged on two sides of the steam room of the body so as to produce the two flowing conduits, and a bottom and a top of each of the two flowing conduits are in communication with the water tank and the steam room. Each of the two heating modules is fixed in each of the two flowing conduits and is not shielded by the water tank, and a horizontal partition is defined among two bottoms of the two vertical partitions and the body so as to shield the water tank.

A modular oven includes a cabinet receiving separate modules with distinct cooking operations. Modules of the modular oven may provide any combination of convection cooking, steam cooking, impingement cooking, and high speed cooking. Therefore, the modules may be mixed and matched to suit the desired cooking operations. In some embodiments, improved steam cooking at lower cooking temperatures is provided by directing spraying water onto an independent heat source, controlled separately from the cavity heating element, within each cooking zone. By operating a separate heating element specifically for steam generation, there can be more accurate heat control of the cooking zones without overheating the cooking zones when steam is needed but when lower cooking temperatures (e.g., 211 degrees Fahrenheit and below) are desired.

A steamer accessory for steam-heating and/or steam-cooking food contained in a container carrying the steamer accessory, includes a steam generator including a steam production chamber connected to at least one steam distribution outlet provided in a lower part of the steam generator, the steamer accessory including a bearing surface intended to rest on the container. The bearing surface has an indentation providing a vent capable of bringing the inside of the container into communication with the outside of the container when the container is carrying the steamer accessory.

A cooking appliance according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises: a case having a cooking chamber formed therein; a door for opening/closing a front opening of the case; a steam generation device mounted on the exterior of the case; and a steam supply pipe for connecting the steam generation device and the cooking chamber, wherein the steam generation device can comprise: a housing fixed to the case; a drawer provided so as to be able to be withdrawn from and put into the housing, and into which water for generating steam is filled; and a heating unit mounted on the lower surface of the drawer so as to heat the water filled inside the drawer.

A cooking adjustment system for a cooking appliance includes a body that defines a cooking cavity. A steam generator system is coupled to the body. The steam generator system is configured to inject steam into the cooking cavity. An air temperature sensor is disposed within the cooking cavity and configured to sense a dry bulb temperature. A food probe has multiple food temperature sensors. At least one of the food temperature sensors is configured to sense a surface temperature of a food item. A controller is communicatively coupled to the steam generator system, the air temperature sensor, and the food probe. The controller is configured to determine a wet bulb temperature utilizing the surface temperature of the food. The controller is configured to adjust relative humidity within the cooking cavity in response to at least one of the wet bulb temperature and the dry bulb temperature.

A food steamer includes a base, a cooking container receivable by said base, a lid receivable atop said cooking container, a boiler housed within the base, a steam flow pathway extending from said boiler to said lid for directing steam generated by said boiler into said container through said lid, a control unit configured to control operation of said food steamer in response to a user input. The control unit is configured to automatically deactivate the boiler when the lid is removed from the cooking container.

A cooking appliance according to an embodiment of the present invention may comprise: a case in which a cooking chamber is formed; a door for opening or closing the front opening of the case; a steam generating device mounted to the outer surface of the case; and a steam supply tube for connecting the steam generating device to the cooking chamber, wherein the steam generating device includes: a housing fixed to the case; a drawer which can be pushed into and pulled out of the housing and is filled with water for steam generation; and an induction unit installed at the bottom of the housing so as to heat water filled in the drawer by using electromagnetic induction.

An animal carcass cooking and roasting assembly and method of use in an oven, the assembly including a base tray, a liquid container mounted on and connected to the tray in a rack in a spaced apart upright position, the container arranged to receive a substantial amount of heat by conduction from the tray by the use of a tray and container connecting thermal via, the container arranged to fit within an open end of the carcass and wherein the opposite end of the carcass is tightly plugged or closed to form an isostatic chamber to contain liquid evaporated from the container within the carcass during the cooking process.

A rice gel production system for producing rice gel in a form of a gel including: a cooking unit that cooks or steams raw-material rice to obtain cooked rice; a cooked rice conveyance unit that conveys the cooked rice; and a pulverizing unit that receives the cooked rice from the cooked rice conveyance unit and pulverizes the cooked rice to obtain rice gel. The pulverizing unit includes: a first pulverizing unit that pulverizes the cooked rice to obtain first pulverized rice; and a second pulverizing unit that pulverizes the first pulverized rice discharged from the first pulverizing unit, the pulverization by the second pulverizing unit being performed more finely as compared with the pulverization performed by the first pulverizing unit 100A to obtain the rice gel.

A cooking appliance is provided. The cooking appliance may include a guide that regulates an installation position of a water supply device with respect to a front panel. The guide may include a first guide coupled to the water supply device to align a relative position of a front surface of the water supply device with respect to the front panel, a second guide coupled to a guide protrusion to align a relative position of the guide with respect to an opening; and a fixer that fixes the guide to the cavity.
