Post by: baf65 on July 23, 2009, 11:57:36 am

In the 'Fresh' liftout of todays West Australian paper, there is a feature on 5 chefs in Perth.
Rainer Konstanty from Halo lists his 3 top must haves
They are
1. Olive oil
2. non stick pan
3. Thermomix - he does list it alongside a Pacojet though!

It aerates the mixture in a way that I don't think the TMX could.  When we went to the Fat Duck, they used them at the table to produce a foam which they then "cooked" in dry ice.   I know they use TMXs behind the scenes as well.

The Pacojet really is superior for making silky smooth sorbets & ice creams.  Unfortunately (if you want to buy one) they cost about $3000 plus $120 or so for the containers and have limited capabilities.

The Pacojet looks amazing - a must for any restaurant I'd say. How would chefs get by without all these appliances - what great timesavers for them.
