description
Field of the Invention The invention relates to a device for smoking food according to the preamble of claim 1.
Background of the Invention [0002] Standard smoking devices typically require at least several hours to obtain a satisfactory smoking result of the food to be fumigated. This long time is not acceptable for catering applications if ordered foods are to be freshly smoked. Smoke plants are known from the prior art, which accelerate the smoking process in a reduced-pressure environment. This is achieved by producing a negative pressure by means of a vacuum pump. The oppressor opens the pores of the smoking material, which allows the smoke to penetrate into the smoking material more quickly and distribute itself more evenly there. In addition, due to the applied vacuum, the evaporation temperature of the water contained in the fumigant decreases. These known systems are located in the industrial sector and are therefore designed to allow a large throughput of smoking.
For the rapid and flexible smoking of individual fresh food to be smoked in the catering, which are ordered by a guest and arrive within acceptable order time to the guest, no devices are available.
OBJECT OF THE INVENTION From the disadvantages of the described prior art, the object initiating the present invention results in proposing a smoking device of the generic type which fulfills the requirements of the gastronomy and additionally has further possibilities of flavoring food.
Description [0005] The second heat source allows the food to be smoked not only to be heated by the smoke of the smoked wood. Depending on the set heating power of the second heat source, the food can be heated to the target temperature in a desired time. This allows a great deal of flexibility, how much the smoke flavor in the food should be present, since the smoke is not or only subordinate to the heating of the food used. The second heat source may be an electric heating coil, a microwave heat source or an infrared heat source.
The solution of the problem is achieved in a device for smoking food in that the first heat source is realized by at least two first electric heating plates. An electric heating plate can be controlled precisely and several heating plates can be controlled independently of each other. A serial burning of wood on the first electric plates is therefore possible, whereby at least on one plate always smoke can be produced.
In a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the first heat source within the smokehouse, preferably on the bottom of the smokehouse, arranged. This allows the smoke to rise from the bottom to the top of the smokehouse and reaches all the dishes left in the smokehouse. It is also conceivable to arrange the first heat source at another location of the smokehouse, for example in the upper area of the smokehouse.
In a further preferred embodiment of the invention, a first vessel is placed on each of the first heating plates, which serves to accommodate the Räucherholzes. Each of the first vessels can be equipped outside the device with a certain amount of smoked wood and can be removed and cleaned after the serial burning of the wood from the device.
As expedient it has been found if a drip protection is arranged between the first electric heating plates and the holder. The drip guard is dimensioned such that it completely covers one of the first electric heating plates. For each of the first heating plate, a separate drip protection can be provided. It is also conceivable that the drip protection is dimensioned so that it covers all the first heating plates. This ensures that no liquid drips from the food to be smoked on the wood. In particular, when the food is placed on grates or grates and thereby drips liquid down, the use of a drip guard is useful.
In a particularly preferred embodiment of the invention, a third heat source, preferably a second electric hot plate, provided within the smokehouse, which serves the heating of flavorings, such as flavored oils, hydrogenated spices or herbs. This aroma function allows great flexibility in the dishes prepared in the device. The aroma function can be used by heating the second hot plate with or without the smoke function. A dish can therefore only be flavored with the chosen flavors or in addition to the smoked flavors. For example, orange or lemon flavors, herbal flavors etc. are conceivable. The rapid and uniform absorption of the flavors is made possible by the vacuum atmosphere produced by the vacuum pump. The oppression produced in the smokehouse therefore not only improves the intake of smoke but also the aromas in the food. Preference is given to a pressure of 600 to 800 mbar.
It is also conceivable that the vacuum function is used to marinate the food by the food in advance or in the smokehouse in a marinade, which marinade can quickly and uniformly move through the vacuum function in the product. The marinating function can be used in combination with the smoker and the aroma function. It is conceivable to marinate with oppression with or without the use of the second heat source.
Conveniently, a second vessel is placed on the third heat source, which serves to absorb the flavorings. The flavors can therefore be heated in any form by the third heating plate. For example, flavor oils, fresh herbs or hydrated dried herbs may be added to the second vessel.
In a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the second heat source is provided outside the smokehouse in the device, wherein the second heat source is thermally conductive with the smokehouse forming the housing in communication. Thus, the second heat source can not pollute and the smoking chamber can be cleaned with less effort than if the second heat source were located in the smokehouse. The second heat source can be arranged at different positions inside or outside the smokehouse.
It is also conceivable that the second heat source is disposed within the smokehouse. The heating function is particularly efficient by the internal arrangement of the second heat source.
It is advantageous if the holder is a shell or a grid. In a shell, the liquid emerging from the food is kept in the shell. A grid has the advantage that the flavors reach the food from all sides. However, liquid drips off and collects in the drip guard and at the bottom of the smokehouse.
As appropriate, it has been proven if in the supply line between the smokehouse and the vacuum pump, a flue gas scrubber is integrated to clean the extracted smoke. The extracted smoke is cleaned by the flue gas scrubber before it leaves the device.
The invention is preferably characterized by the fact that the device has a width between 40 and 100 cm, a height between 25 and 100 cm and a depth between 40 and 60 cm. These compact dimensions allow the device to fit into any kitchen in a restaurant, and even after the kitchen has been designed, it can be set up in the kitchen afterwards and the kitchen can be upgraded with the appliance.
The invention is also preferably characterized by the fact that the first electric heating plates are independently controllable and the second electric heating plate is independent of the first heating plates controllable. As a result, the device is extremely flexible. On the one hand, smoked wood, which is heated by the first heating plates, can be burnt down in series, so that smoke is produced continuously and without interruption. On the other hand, the aroma function can be used together with the smoking function or without the smoking function.
As appropriate, it has been found that the device can be equipped with food up to a total weight of 7 kg maximum. As a result, enough dishes can be flavored in the order of magnitude of a catering business, without the device has too large dimensions.
Another aspect of the invention relates to a method for the preparation and flavoring of a food with a device according to the above description, wherein the vacuum pump, the at least two first electric heating plates, the second heat source and the second electric hot plate in their activation times, their temperature or the measure of the pressure reduction and in their heating intervals or the pressure reduction intervals in the smokehouse, are matched to one another such that these operating parameters are adapted to the type, the preparation requirements and the flavoring requirements of the food.
The device is therefore designed extremely flexible in its operation and can be operated flexibly and very accurately adapted to the food to be prepared. For example, the food can be hot or cold smoked by the second heat source is activated or remains disabled. Thanks to the second electric hotplate, flavors can be heated individually in combination with smoking or without smoking. Additionally, the smokiness and / or the flavor of the selected flavorants in the liver agent can be intensified by the use of the vacuum pump.
In a further particularly preferred embodiment of the invention, the type, the processing form and the amount of the wood which is added to the first vessels and the type and amount of the flavoring agents, which are added to the second vessel, are selected such that they are adapted to the type, preparation requirements and flavoring requirements of the food. It is applicable to any wood which is suitable for smoking and this can be applied in different processing forms, for example as a whole in bar form, as flour, as chips or in chips in the first vessels. The first vessels can be heated simultaneously or in series. There are no limits to the choice of flavoring agents to be added to the second vessel, allowing the food to be flavored with creative flavors.
Further advantages and features will become apparent from the following description of an embodiment of the invention with reference to the schematic representations. It shows in a non-scale representation:
1 shows a cross section through a device for smoking food;
2 shows an enlarged view of a first heating plate for arranging smoking wood; and FIG. 3 shows an enlarged view of a second heating plate for arranging flavorings.
In Fig. 1, a device for smoking food is shown, which is generally designated by the reference numeral 11. The device 11 comprises a smokehouse 13, which is formed by an enclosure 15. The device 11 has external dimensions which allow the device to fit in a kitchen of a restaurant. Therefore, the device has a width between 40 and 100 cm, a height between 25 and 100 cm and a depth between 40 and 60 cm. The device for smoking food enables À la carte dishes to be smoked within a short time, so that the corresponding food can be smoked only after receipt of order and still be served to the guest in an acceptable time.
In the smokehouse 13 shells 17 or lattice are inserted into or on which the food to be smoked are placed. Preferably, at the bottom 19 of the smoking chamber 13, a plurality of first electric heating plates 21 is arranged, wherein one of these first heating plates is shown in more detail in FIG. On the first heating plate 21, a first vessel 23 can be placed, which serves to receive the wood fumigant 25. The majority of first heating plates can be regulated separately. In Fig. 1, for example, three first heating plates and three first vessels 23 are shown. This makes it possible smoked smoked wood, which is the three shells 23 abandoned, in series. An uninterrupted smoke production in the smokehouse is therefore possible.
The device 11 comprises a vacuum pump 27, which can generate a suppression in the smokehouse 13. For this purpose, the smokehouse 13 is connected to a supply line 29 to the vacuum pump 27. To regulate the negative pressure, a vacuum control valve 31 is integrated in the supply line 29. The oppressor allows the smoke flavor to penetrate into the smoking product more quickly and spread more evenly in the smoking product.
Further, in the supply line 29 between the vacuum pump 27 and the smokehouse 13, a flue gas scrubber 33 is integrated. The flue gas scrubber 33 cleans or washes the fumigant gas extracted from the smokehouse 13. The vacuum pump 27 is a gas filter 35, for example, a coal active filter, downstream, which further cleans the fuming gas or the exhaust gas before it is blown into the environment.
Above the first electric heating plates 21, a first drip protection 37 is arranged in each case so that dripping liquid from the smoking can not drip on the smoldering wood 25 and leads to undesirable possibly harmful gas evolution. The first drip guard 37 expediently has at least the cross section of the first vessel 23 and can be removed from the smokehouse 13 for cleaning purposes.
In the smokehouse 13, a second heat source 39 is arranged. The second heat source heats the smokehouse in a short time, which speeds up the smoking process. The heating of the Räuchergutes done in a smokehouse usually by burning the Räucherholzes 25, since this inevitably heat. However, this type of heating would take too much time preparing a la carte dishes. The second heat source 39 may be an electric heating coil or an infrared heat source. Also, the second heat source 39 may be arranged in the smokehouse 13, as shown in Fig. 1. The second heat source 39 may also be arranged outside the smokehouse 13 and have thermally conductive contact with the housing 15. The latter embodiment has the advantage that the second heat source 39 is not contaminated by the smoking process.
At the bottom 19 of the smokehouse 13, a third heat source in the form of a second electric heating plate 41 is arranged. On the second electric heating plate 41, a second vessel 43 is placed, as shown in Fig. 3. Aromas 45, for example flavored oils, hydrogenated spices or herbs, may be heated in the second vessel. The aroma function therefore makes it possible to aromatize the food dispensed in the smokehouse 13 not only with smoke, but also with aromas which escape from the aroma substances 45 into the smokehouse 13. The suppressor, which can be generated in the smokehouse, allows a quick and even distribution of the aromas in the food to be flavored, just as with the smoke flavor. The aroma function can be used together or separately from the smoking function. Therefore, the second electric heating plate 41 is controllable independently of the first electric heating plates 21. Between the shells 17 and the second vessel 43, a second drip guard 46 is arranged so that liquid dripping from the food does not come into contact with the flavoring agents 45.
The device 11 can be operated via a control panel 47 and has a power connection 49th
To further accelerate the flavoring with smoke, aroma or marinade vacuum intervals can be driven, for example, vacuum about 2 min and subsequent venting about 1 min. This creates a "breathing" of the food to be flavored, which allows the smoke and / or aroma and / or marinade to move even faster into the smoking.
In the following, several possible embodiments are described: In general, the most important devices that have to run continuously during a service time (for example, 6:00 pm to 10:00 pm) are switched on no later than a quarter of an hour before.
The device 11 is designed so that it is provided with 3 vessels 23 for the reception of fumigants, which are each heated by a separate first heating plate 21.
The first heating plates 21 are connected in "series" and each have a running time of about 90 minutes. Fifteen minutes before one of the first heating plates 21 is turned off, another heating plate 21 is turned on to reach the predetermined temperature, fifteen minutes before the other heating plate 21 turns off, yet another heating plate 21 turns on. This covers a service time of 240 minutes.
The smoked woods are dimensioned so that they produce smoke at a correspondingly selected temperature (290 ° C beech) for 90 minutes without producing off-flavors and too strong to burn.
Once smoke is generated, you can insert products or food. As long as the second heat source 39 is not switched on, sensitive products can be "cold-fumigated" very quickly, such as e.g. boiled eggs, raw mushrooms, mozzarella or another cheese.
For this purpose, the products are placed in the device 11 and the vacuum activated. The vacuum pump 27 now begins to lower the pressure by 200 mbar at intervals, to hold it for 30 seconds, then to shut down, so that the pressure is equalized again. This is also to ensure that enough smoke is re-produced and gets to the product for a good smoking result.
The interval operation is continued over the set smoking time.
A cold-smoked mozzarella can be prepared in a period of 5 to 10 minutes. Also boiled egg and raw champignon can be cold-smoked during this period.
For hot smoking, the second heat source 39 is turned on. Depending on the product to be cooked, the temperature is chosen individually, for example for "Warm Roekt Lax" (warm smoked salmon), a familiar product in gastronomy.
The second heat source 39 is set for this purpose to 120 ° C smokehouse temperature, the interval times of the vacuum change with the program length. For example, the pump is set for 180 seconds, 60 seconds for lowering pressure, 60 seconds for pressure equalization and 60 seconds at ambient pressure. The smoking and cooking process for a 120 g piece of salmon takes 15 minutes and brings the core temperature in the salmon fillet to a perfect 56 ° C.
Apart from smoking, the oven also serves to aromatize products. For example scallops, which are flavored at a smokehouse temperature of 80 ° C with a highly saline and Wakame algae enriched lake for 15 minutes under vacuum intervals.
