<p>An electric cooking utensil, such as a toaster, applies heating elements (11) directly onto a piece of food to be cooked. The utensil comprises electric heaters (22,23) each of which comprises a substrate (10), with a conductive strip (11) deposited on one surface of the substrate (10) to act as a heating element. The heaters (22,23) are connected fixedly to housing parts (20,21) or connected in a manner which allows limited movement to permit even contact of the heating elements (11) on slanting pieces of food. The housing parts (20,21) may be arranged in a number of different constructions to allow relative movement of the heaters (22,23) to bring the heating elements (11) into intimate contact with the food to be cooked.</p> |
