Galileo ovens: Steam generation

Steam generation ovens have the ability to use two different types of cooking technology:

• Traditional cooking - for great cooking results, excellent heat distribution and even browning.
• Steam cooking - for moisture and flavour retention with nutrient and vitamin high results.

Our home economist explains all about Steam technology in the video here.

There are three types of Galileo steam generation ovens to choose from; Steam one offers up to 40% humidity with a manual water loading system, whilst steam100 and steam100 Pro offers up to 100% humidity with a fill & hide water loading system.

The oven's smart cooking technology does all the hard work for you. Simply enter the type of ingredient you wish to cook, and its weight and the oven will work out the perfect temperature and time it needs to cook to perfection. To make things even simpler, there are also pre-set recipes to choose from, so whatever your cooking experiences, you can create outstanding dishes with minimal effort.

Sous vide cooking in a steam100 or Steam100 Pro oven is the best way to cook food without altering its nutritional properties and quality. It is also an extremely healthy and natural type of cooking.

The Sous vide function allows the heat to be transferred efficiently from the steam to the food, preventing the loss of flavour through the oxidation and evaporation of nutrients and humidity during cooking. 

This type of cooking creates deliciously mouthwatering results.

The cavity of all Galileo ovens has been completely redesigned for better heat distribution which allows for even better cooking and browning results. The new airflow system also ensures no flavour transfer between dishes, so you can cook sweet and savoury meals all at once. Other improvements include a new smooth rounded cavity that has been welded for easy cleaning, a new easier-to-remove internal door, and soft hinges for soft, silent opening and closing of the door.
