Claims17
A cooking apparatus for cooking a foodstuff, the cooking apparatus comprising:
- a vessel configured to accept a liquid therein;
- a closing sub-assembly configured to be releasably coupled to the vessel, the closing sub-assembly defining an aperture a cooking tray for positioning the foodstuff and wherein the cooking tray and the vessel are placed substantially along a single surface while in use;
- a steam leading tube operatively coupled to the aperture, the steam leading tube configured to provide a passage for a super heated steam generated within the vessel from the liquid towards an interior of the foodstuff, wherein said steam leading tube comprises at least a first portion located in proximity to the closing sub-assembly and a second portion defining a second end for insertion into the foodstuff, said second portion extends substantially in parallel to said cooking tray and a curve is defined between said first portion and said second portion.
A method of cooking a foodstuff comprising:
- providing a vessel containing a liquid, a closing sub-assembly configured to be releasably coupled to said vessel and having an aperture formed within said closing sub-assembly;
- further providing a steam leading tube operatively coupled to said aperture;
- heating an oven to a pre-determined temperature positioning a cooking tray for the foodstuff and the vessel substantially along a single surface within the oven;
- subjecting the foodstuff via said aperture and said steam leading tube to a stream of super-heated steam at substantially said pre-determined temperature.
