The Russell Hobbs 28270 is a versatile multicooker designed to simplify various cooking tasks, offering a range of functions from searing and roasting to slow cooking, steaming, and sous vide. Its intuitive control panel and thoughtful design make it a convenient addition to any kitchen.
The multicooker features a removable control panel, a cooking pot with handles, a glass lid, a steaming rack, and a roasting rack. These components work together to support its diverse cooking modes.
Sear Mode: This function allows users to sauté, sear, and fry ingredients directly in the cooking pot. It operates at a high temperature, reaching approximately 220°C, and can be programmed for up to 1 hour. This mode is ideal for browning meats or vegetables before other cooking processes, enhancing flavor and texture. The lid should not be used during searing.
Roast Mode: Perfect for roasting joints, this mode utilizes the included roasting rack to elevate food, ensuring even cooking. Users can set temperatures ranging from approximately 65°C to 215°C and cooking times up to 20 hours. After roasting, the unit automatically switches to a keep warm setting for up to 4 hours. It's recommended to roast with the lid on to retain heat and moisture.
Sous Vide Mode: This advanced cooking method involves cooking food in a sealed pouch within a precisely regulated water bath. The multicooker maintains temperatures between approximately 38°C and 96°C for up to 20 hours. Sous vide helps retain juices and subtle flavors that might be lost in conventional cooking. Users can prepare food in zipper-lock bags (using hand or water immersion methods) or silicon bags, or use a vacuum pack machine for optimal results. Hot water should be added to the pot to minimize heating time.
Slow Cook Mode (High and Low): Designed for casseroles, soups, stews, and meat/vegetable combinations, slow cooking tenderizes tougher cuts of meat and reduces shrinkage. The "High" setting has a default cooking time of 4 hours, while "Low" defaults to 8 hours, both adjustable up to 20 hours. This mode is energy-efficient and ideal for preparing meals that cook while you're away. The unit automatically switches to keep warm for up to 4 hours after slow cooking.
Steam Mode: This function uses the steaming rack to cook vegetables, fish, and other ingredients. Users add a small amount of water to the pot, place ingredients on the rack, and cover with the lid. The default steaming time is 30 minutes, adjustable up to 2 hours, with the unit reaching 100°C. Steaming helps retain nutrients and flavors, producing brightly colored and slightly softened results.
Rice Mode: The multicooker automatically prepares perfect rice. After adding rice and water according to the provided chart, the unit cooks until the temperature reaches approximately 105°C, the liquid is absorbed, and excess water has boiled off. It then switches to keep warm for up to 4 hours. The lid should remain closed throughout the cooking cycle.
Boil Mode: This mode is suitable for boiling ingredients, making soups, or cooking pasta. It has a default cooking time of 30 minutes, adjustable up to 2 hours, and reaches 100°C. For pasta, it's important to ensure the water is boiling before adding the pasta.
Keep Warm Mode: This function allows users to keep already cooked food warm for up to 4 hours before serving. It is not intended for cooking food.
The multicooker is designed for ease of use with a clear digital display and intuitive button controls.
Maintaining the Russell Hobbs multicooker is straightforward, with removable parts designed for easy cleaning.
