New Miele Steam Oven Coming
Steam ovens, long a staple of professional chefs, are making their way into more residential kitchens. According to manufacturers like Miele, steam ovens make bread that is softer on the inside while remaining crusty on the outside, and they keep meat from drying out during the cooking process. In November, Miele Inc. will be offering a "Navitronic" built-in wall steam oven with an interactive menu system designed to help users determine just how to cook various dishes with steam. Steam ovens are more expensive than traditional ovens, so expect to pay for this luxury. The MSRP for the Miele oven will be $2,299.
