LG’s latest appliance wants to partially replace the chef in your house and give you and your family precious time back

Dubai, UAE, June 15, 2017:  Family, food, culture, heritage and traditions are of central focus during the holy month of Ramadan and now with smart appliances, homemakers are able to take advantage of new technology to prepare meals that are healthy, delicious and perfect for not just a home for today, but for a smart home of the future.

Technology is now taking over the kitchen through intuitive control with new devices that even do most of the cooking for you. The smart appliance trendsetting that started in the living room is now moving into the kitchen.

However, the most significant benefit that smart cooking can provide is the ability to save time, enabling families to spend more time engaging in healthy activities that celebrate this solemn season as opposed to activities that promote an unhealthy lifestyle.

While the frequency of cooking at home is declining, research indicates that families are looking for ways to save time in their own kitchens. The thought of dinner cooking itself as we watch TV in the other room certainly sounds appealing. 

LG’s latest appliance is designed to do just that. It will partially replace the chef on your house and give you your precious family time back. 

“Ramadan is the season whereby families and people enjoy mouth-watering dishes prepared with a variety of ingredients and imagine these being made with a great amount of ease. That’s the power of the smart home appliances today - homemakers can cook up an exceptional meal with minimal time required, allowing them to pursue more healthy, active and cost-conscious lifestyles to brighten their futures,” said Kevin Cha, President, LG Electronics, Middle East & Africa.

One such technology is the LG NeoChef™. LG NeoChef Microwave Oven (MWO) serves as the perfect Kitchen assistant in terms of usability, taking charge of the cooking and dining experience.

NeoChef MWO has Inverter Technology that has enhanced it for better, faster, more efficient cooking performance while saving time and conserving energy at the same time. LG’s Smart Inverter technology allows for flexibility to select the power level at the start of the cooking process and varies the power delivered during the cooking process depending on the cooking option selected. 

The NeoChef™ also packs a number of customized features designed to increase cleanliness and streamline the cooking experience. The Anti-Bacterial EasyClean™ Coating makes cleaning the microwave interior simple and straightforward. The microwave’s interior can be thoroughly cleaned twice as fast and with half the effort required for conventional microwaves. In fact, it takes just three wipes to thoroughly clean the NeoChef™ while conventional microwaves typically require seven. The coating also makes it harder for dangerous contaminants to take root, eliminating 99.99 percent of harmful bacteria.

In addition, the NeoChef™ can be used for melting ingredients such as chocolate or cheese and precisely preparing a variety of foods with its specialized settings. LG’s advanced microwave can even be used to make healthy, lactobacilli-infused yogurt more quickly than most home yogurt makers. The microwave’s Healthy Fry feature is even capable of preserving the distinct taste of each dish while making them healthier, with less oil and 72 percent less fat.
Smart cooking provides unique solutions in the kitchen for both homemakers and chefs – whether it is for the holy month of Ramadan or any day of the week during the year, smart cooking is all set to redefine the future in relation to cooking healthy meals and saving money.

In the near future, technological advances will eventually enable appliances to actively interact with other, recommending recipes from ingredients store in the refrigerator whilst also providing consumers the option to 3D print their meals – that can potentially result in significant cost savings and have a positive impact on people.
