Experience the next era of stress-free cooking with Ztove Ztove is a cooking system that uses Ztove cookware with an in-built temperature sensor that communicates with the Ztove cooktop (sold here: www.ztove.com/shop). With the Ztove app, you can control the temperatures of your cookware, giving you the exact temperature you need to prepare your favorite dishes. The exact temperatures and smart automation make cooking with Ztove convenient, time-efficient and stress-free. Overview of the cooking process The Ztove app provides an overview of what happens on the Ztove cooktop while cooking. Every cooking zone can be controlled and monitored by setting exact temperatures, power, timers and run recipes. Every action is attached to a specific zone, and you can even dedicate a zone to the “sous vide method” — a method not possible on a regular cooktop. Precise temperature control With the Ztove system, you get to set precise temperatures, manage your time, and stay on top of things. You can select your temperature precisely as you need it—you no longer need to think about what is a “low”, “medium”, or “high” setting. Thus, you no longer need to be bothered about temperature fluctuation while cooking. With Ztove, you can also use the in-built temperature guide to identify a suitable temperature for the food you need. Ztove educational content Ztove is an entirely new way of cooking; we acknowledge that. That is why we have a dedicated section in the app with tips on how to get the full potential of the system. This can be about how to make easy and perfectly boiled potatoes, crispy fries, how to conserve energy while cooking and more. Ztove adapted recipes Ztove offers a universe of recipes and simple preparations tailored to the Ztove system. You can easily boil eggs using the egg-boiler recipe or cook rice effortlessly. Besides that, a lot of recipes are developed to include sophisticated techniques commonly unavailable on regular cooktops, such as sous vide, controlled deep frying, baking bread on a pan, and other useful techniques. The future of cooking At Ztove, we love to create tech - especially when the tech we create is useful in an everyday chaotic and messy context. Our goal is to provide the cooking experience of the future, and you are welcome to join.

The ingredients are vacuum sealed in a plastic bag together with herbs or spices, and lowered into water held at a constant temperature throughout the cooking process.
