Lets find out... Wow I cannot believe the build quality - REALLY! In my dream business where I own a global appliance company where everything is built the best this is how I'd do a common counter top mixer!

Recipes Anybody like to share any recipes they may have for this amazing machine?
I like puddings, risottos, sauces but want to avoid the drudgeries of standing there and stirring. With automatic living in the Kenwood Cooking Chef this is a thing of the past!
I had read a review by a woman who said she had never used a food processor that didn't clog up on the top of the cutting blades- Me neither. So the first thing I tried was slicing up potatoes for dinner. Look at how neat this is and this is really a silly attachment, its not what the machine was designed for! The disk is practically clean. I dont get that out of my Kitchen Aid Pro!! | ||

Now to get down business Today we are delving into the cooking feature with tapioca dream and maybe a mornay sauce.
Theres quite a bit of set up as you have to manually adjust the beaters with a supplied wrench before using them and then everything needs a good washing.
The cooking feature runs on induction and if you know me you know I cant get enough of that. The stirring can be constant, intermittent, timed, counted down automatically, pulsed and it even has a fold in feature!
God bless the Queen and British Empire. | ||

Congratulations! That is a great machine! Did it come with a recipe book? If not, the Australian site has it online,
www.kenwoodworld.com/Glob... There is also a nice recipe book online for older Chefs. reocarchive.byethost31.com/kenwoo... If I had bought one, I would start with my favourite risotto, with fennel, fennel seeds, lemon zest and juice. Ofcourse some butter or a fruity olive oil and lots of parmesan cheese to finish it. It goes wel with a piece of salmon, some shrimps or lemon chicken. But I prefer it without anything else, just a plateful of yummie. | ||

LOUIS That sounds delicious I will try it. Louis thanks for the website I will get the cookbook as this was a Demo and did not come with one.
I hope its not discontinued. I just saw the All Digital version and glad I got this one as I like dials better.
There is a dealer on ebay selling Demo machines, a LOT cheaper !
The link below is for the 2015 model, maybe they've stopped selling in the N American market?

Combination Kenwood Mixer-Cooker Very cool, I think tat everyone here knows how much I like combination appliances.
This was the reason I got my Ronson Cook'N'Stir blender, always love things that can do more than one thing at a time or be used for multiple tasks, To me this is engineering at its best.
While I love induction cooking there is probably almost no advantage using induction in an appliance like this that must use a dedicated cooking container and also has complete temperature built in, cleaning the cooking surface and fast temperature would not be an issue and resistance heating would be just as efficient and much more reliable.
To bad that so many cool things like this Kenwood appliance are all made in China, it seems that complated items are too expensive to make here any longer.
What are other AW folks favorite multi purpose appliances ?

Kenwood
I recently bought a Kenwood kCook, a cooking processor. It was on sale for €175 ($195), the salesman took another €10 off because it was the last one in the store and the box was just a little damaged. They used to be around €400 here. It's very compact, but big enough for one or two portions of risotto.

There are a few downsides in comparison to more expensive cooking processors (only three temperatures and not a real opening in the lid), but it's really value for money. The newer versions have more temperatures and programmes, but they also have the slicer/shredder tower, I didn't want that, it makes the machine bigger and I have enough machines that can slice and shred.

WOwe This is something totally lacking in the US market cook N stir tech! I had no idea you have so many to choose from! And thats odd considering risotto has been a rage over since the 90's- its what killed Disco! Red wine and risotto!
Just made a cheddar cheese sauce for dinner tonight --- under 10 minutes-- look at that glaze !

So I heard back from a UK supplier who has a big ebay site for Kenwood over here, she told all machines are now world machines with a 110/220 switch- Excellent news People, it also probably means that the boards are all interchangeable as these machines all rectify the Mains voltage to a set level before it enters the electronics in the machines. It also means that the boards are okay with 50-60Hz. Hola I didn't get a white elephant in the garage sale! | ||

THere are so many fun new appliances out there today I could easily go broke. I've never seen so many mixers and cookers and what nots . Months back I saw this multi cooker / air fryer on Amazon for a remarkably low price of about $75 Cdn, it was also on the US site for about $50 so why the heck not . It's called the Cook-a-riffic by Gourmia. A 10 in one stirring cooker. It heats the pan from below but also convection cooks by blowing hot air thru a channel and over the top of the dome. You can do stir fry, bake things, fry etc by removing the stirring paddle. I really like it and more surprisingly almost a miracle, Larry my partner, has even been using it. The only fault is that that dome doesn't come off for cleaning but with the hot air blowing over the dome it doesn't seem to get very dirty. I've seen other robot stir fryers on Amazon but none this cheap.., hopefully it lasts.

Friday I was puttering around through a couple of thrift stores and saw this T-Fal Optigrill on the shelf for only $20. It looked virtually unused so of course I wasn't going to let it sit there. Once home I made a grill cheese sandwich in it and it worked well but it does squish the wonder bread.. Last night I made a couple of thick hamburger patties and they turned out excellent. No guesswork on how you want it done. Now I'm ordered to get rid of either it or my trusty old Breville Panini grill.I think I'll keep the opti grill and send the Breville over to my sisters LOL.

That TFal OptiGrill went for close to $200 at Bed, Bath and Beyoncé a year or so ago. I was intrigued by it and I did see the infomercial about it.
That Kenwood mixer looks amazingly versatile. I did spend some time last night reading the cookbook for it. I was impressed by what it can do and also the attachments that one can get like that coveted “ dicer” . I keep telling myself that I do NOT need another mixer since I have three now...two KA mixers and a Sunbeam Mixmaster and I will get killed if I got another one. Petek a question for you....that GE Profile smoothtop range you have, how do you like it? Reason I ask is that we are planning on moving to Florida this summer into a new home and I have a GE gas range that I adore but can’t bring since there is no gas lines where we are going so it has to be electric. I was looking at the Electric version of my range and the model you have. | ||

I'm on my 3rd Tfal Optigrill. The first one only lasted a couple of months and then the electronics went wonky. Sent it back to TSC and they replaced it. The 2nd one arrived dead so back it went and they sent a 3rd one. It has worked for a couple of years but now every so often the electronics go wonky on it as well. All the selection lights start flashing sequentially and it won't let me select anything. When it does work, it does a great job of grilling without having to constantly check the doneness.

Cooking seems to be more and more a matter of using special appliances instead of cooking on a stove. I'm intrigued by some of those appliances and have a few myself too, but I hope the skill of cooking stays. The Thermomix is one of those appliances that is very versatile and has a lot of recipes in the machine. You connect it to Wifi and the recipe database can be updated regularly. It has become very popular, you can see it on Youtube too. All those Thermomix cooks thinking they are the best cooks in the world. There are especially a lot of videos in German, you get the impression half that country is cooking on Youtube.
I'm impressed by what the Thermomix can do, but it's very expensive and it's very LOUD! And a lot of Thermomix addicts are buying the newest models all the time so the previous models appear on auction sites pretty soon after the introduction of a new model. Bosch is bringing out a similar cooking processor, the Cookit, probably in the same price league as the Thermomix6. So far I think you made a good choice Jon with the Kenwood Cooking Chef. Hope to see more dishes you made with it. | ||

Next Tapioca Dream pudding -WOW in under 10 minutes. Too fast, I was rushing to keep up and get the egg whites whipped in my neglected KA mixer LOL!
Pearl tapioca , vanilla a ton, sugar, egg yolk, all in my Woody. Fold in egg whites at the end. Yum. Its so easy with Woody! I wonder if that Westinghouse could stir through risotto?
Although Thermomix has always intrigued me , and the Bosch looks so cool I think Im very happy with my Kenwood Woody and a pressure cooker or two.
Mike you're moving to FL? Retirement? Yay. What part??

Mike. I'm very happy with the GE Profile induction. I would have preferred dial controls over the push button type but they don't have that now, perhaps in the slide in models. It is super fast at boiling a post of water and it can maintain a very low temp for melting, particularly on the smallest back right burner.Controls are instantaneous, faster reacting than gas. The small center burner is a keep warm only, 3 setttigs, and not induction. The left two burners can sync together for a griddle which I bought separately. The front right power burner is huge and can handle a big big stewing pot etc. Noise from the induction fans etc are minimal if any. My portable induction was noisier No edging around the glass makes it easy to clean. The oven has regular clean or light clean where you put some water on the bottom, haven't tried that. The 3 racks are not chrome, but enameled sort of like the oven walls so they can be self cleaned in the oven. I find the oven heats up very fast, faster than the previous Kitchenaid it replaced. It is wifi capable. Download the app and you can check on the cooking, change temps, times etc or shut it off remotely. You cannot turn it on remotely unless you have pressed the wifi button before leaving the house. It signals you on your phone when the timer is done etc all that kind of stuff,,supposedly can work with alexa but I haven't got the app to work yet and probably won't bother . I was comparing it with a Frigidaire before buying and the GE seems much sturdier . Don't regret the purchase, I'd buy it again.

Can someone provide the link to whomever is selling the Cooking Chefs on Ebay? I can't find it for some reason.
I'd be like Jon having a ton o fun mixing this and mixing that. Louis; there does seem to be a lot more robotic multi cookers selling over there than what you an find here. I saw an All Clad that marketed as Moulinex in Europe. One of the least expensive I can find here is the Bellini something or other for around $400 but some of the reviews aren't very kind, saying it seems cheaply built. Oh and I was in the Dutch store the other day and picked up a small bottle of Hela Curry Ketchup to try.. I think I'm in love. I wonder why Heinz and Frenchs here don't sell such things. | ||

Knobs vs. touch pad induction on GE's; I've never seen one with knobs. The slide in model is all touch. They debuted back in the early 90's as a 36 inch drop in counter top surface unit type. No knobs then either. | ||

Thanks Pete for that review of your GE range. I love the looks of it and its very sleek and has to be easy to clean.
Jon we are looking at a 55+ community north of Tampa called Cloverleaf Farms in Brooksville FL. We will be in a semi rural setting and no more flight path like I am in now with Logan. Today has been brutal with the air traffic overhead are in Lynn. When the winds are coming from the south, the flight path into Logan is over the ocean from Marblehead, Salem, Lynn, Revere and then into Logan. They fly directly over the house every 4 to 5 minutes. And they are not the small planes either. I am looking forward to the quiet and a different pace of life...much like when you moved to the Cape. | ||

Pete I love induction, ever since John Lefever introduced me to it 30+ years ago. He gave me my first drop in cooktop which is a Kenmore. Wont live without it now. So I am glad to say my 25+ year old JennAir is biting the dust down here! And coming home soon will be a new Samsung slide in induction range and this one has knobs!! KNOBS!!! And the front burners have a cool blue led light that bounces off the pots so it looks like gas !! I heard from Gansky that his customer has the same oven and loves it, says its the best oven shes ever used. What has saved me these past 3 months is the one burner Iwatani unit I kept from the shop that is sitting beside the JennAir, its so fast I can cook a whole meal for me quicker than using the 4 S L O W burners on the Jenn Air.

Here is the very first induction home cooking device 1971 Westinghouse had the first unit and first patents on home cooking induction. The unit had to be completely sealed so the controls were little magnetic carts that moved a potentiometer below the surface. The test unit built for a Texas home show was voltage controlled had one burner, the later 100 units in the photo used a frequency control to adjust power output.
They made 100 units and cost $1500 each in 1971, $8399.00 today. It came with a complete set of magnetic cookware that was designed for the unit. Sears made by Sanyo of Japan, introduced its cooktop not long after and that sold for several years.

Pete I am looking at the model Profile that is like yours minus the induction part. I just want the smooth top with ribbon elements under the glass. The reason being is that I have a pacemaker and with induction coils after a certain wattage being used , I can feel the energy being applied to the pot/pan in the leads that screw into my heart. The higher the wattage , the worse it is. Even with the replacement pacemaker I have , there are limits to what it can mask. Its always something...lol

I like how those LEDs work on the Samsung. When I was getting serious I remembered they had had a model with 3 induction burners and one conventional burner but it had been discontinued.. Which was too bad because it would have allowed the use of my aluminum or corningware and we rarely if ever use more than 2 burners at once. The price of the GE was another factor being around $1500 compared to the Samsungs $2400. The Frigidaire was priced even less at about $1000 but as previously mentioned didn't feel as robust, so the GE was a good compromise and it works very well. They offered me a 5 year warranty for the price of 3 years (about $150) so I took it, just in case
Bosch iirc, or it could have been one of the tonier brands, had or may still have an induction cooktop which utilizes those little sliding doo dads to control the burner like on that early Westinghouse. You know what would be great,, a retro styled induction setup like those side by side flip down Westinghouse burners. or were they Frigidaire? Would save a lot of counterspace. | ||
