Multi Cookers

In today's fast-paced world, having a versatile cooking appliance can be a game-changer in the kitchen. Baccarat's range of multi-cookers and slow cookers are designed to simplify your cooking process while delivering delicious meals. Whether you're a seasoned chef or just starting out, these appliances offer convenience, functionality, and the promise of tasty results.

Multi Cookers
Multi-cookers are versatile kitchen appliances that combine the functions of a slow cooker, pressure cooker, steamer, and more, all in one device. They're designed to make meal preparation easier and more efficient by offering multiple cooking modes in a single unit. Ideal for busy households, a multi-cooker allows you to prepare a wide range of dishes—from soups and stews to rice and yogurt—with minimal effort. Simply set the desired mode, add your ingredients, and the cooker does the rest, saving you time while delivering delicious results.

Slow Cookers
Slow cookers, a component of multi-cookers, are perfect for those who enjoy hearty, flavourful meals with minimal hands-on time. By cooking at low temperatures over extended periods, they break down tough cuts of meat and bring out deep flavours in dishes like roasts and chilli. Just add your ingredients in the morning, and by dinnertime, you'll have a warm, satisfying meal ready to serve. Slow cookers are especially popular for their ability to infuse flavours and tenderise ingredients without constant supervision, making them a staple for easy, comforting home-cooked meals.

Pressure Cookers
Pressure cookers are essential for those who need quick and efficient meal preparation. By cooking food under high pressure, they significantly reduce cooking times while retaining nutrients and flavours. A pressure cooker's rapid cooking capability makes it ideal for preparing tough cuts of meat, beans, and grains, transforming them into tender, delicious dishes in a fraction of the time compared to traditional methods. With preset programs for various foods, pressure cookers offer convenience and speed, making them a favourite for modern cooks who value both time and taste.
