System and Method for Cooking Seafood Products

摘要

A seafood product cooking system includes a cooking vessel; a sensing module; a control module for measuring a set of cooking vessel parameters and outputting a set of control signals; a processing module for processing at least one signal from the sensing module and issuing control commands to the control module; and a memory module configurable to store a set of cooking process program instructions. A cooking process includes loading the product inside the cooking vessel; creating a negative pressure therein; increasing cooking vessel temperature to a first temperature; pumping in vapour comprising water vapour into the cooking vessel to initiate a process of attaining a second temperature lesser than the first temperature, wherein attaining the second temperature includes dwelling the seafood product at a plurality of intermediate temperatures; and spraying fluid including water on the seafood product to attain a third temperature that is lesser than the second temperature.

主权项

1. A system for cooking a seafood product, comprising:
a cooking vessel configured to carry the seafood product, the cooking vessel configurable to receive a set of control signals; a sensing module couplable to the cooking vessel and configurable to measure a set of physical parameters of the cooking vessel and output a set of signals corresponding to the set of physical parameters; a processing module couplable to the sensing module, the processing module configurable to execute a set of stored program instructions and process at least one signal received from the sensing module; a control module couplable to the processing module and the cooking vessel, the control module configurable to receive control commands from the processing module and output the set of control signals to the cooking vessel; and a memory module couplable to the processing module, the memory module configurable to store a cooking control manager comprising a set of program instructions—to perform a cooking method comprising:
(a) loading the product inside the cooking vessel of the system;(b) creating a negative pressure inside the cooking vessel;(c) increasing the temperature of the cooking vessel to a first temperature;(d) pumping in vapour comprising water vapour into the cooking vessel to initiate a process of attaining a second temperature in the seafood product, the second temperature lesser than the first temperature and wherein the process of attaining the second temperature comprises dwelling the cooking vessel at a plurality of intermediate temperatures between the first temperature and the second temperature; and(e) spraying fluid comprising water on the product inside the cooking vessel to attain a third temperature in the seafood product, the third temperature lesser than the second temperature.
