Filipinos are known to love food and gatherings. Whenever they are preparing for a big celebration,
whether it is for birthdays, fiestas or family reunions, the kitchen sure gets
so busy with all the cooking that needs to be done. All hands are on deck as all
available chopping boards are brought out and batches of ingredients go through
knives before getting them in the pots. While some ingredients are boiled or
steamed before they are combined with the other ingredients to complete the
dish, there are some that gets the heat treatment by frying, grilling, or
roasting. This is how Filipinos do their feasts as one big community or one big
family, helping each other, and then finally bonding over the dishes that they
labored for.
Younger families who trace their roots from far-flung
provinces are bringing in their family’s tradition to their very own homes,
where there might be not enough open space for a fire pit for roasting and
grilling, or those big and heavy gas ranges that could fire up a big wok and
take in enough volume of food enough for a good portion of the family clan or barangay. Luckily, these young generations
of families could still continue to enjoy and pass on further their family’s
great recipes with Midea’s newest lineup of gas ranges that are specially
designed to surprisingly withstand the test of Filipino cooking. They have
three models, two of which has an oven volume of 58L, while the other has a
bigger one with 65L, each of which could accommodate 4 pans and pots cooking
simultaneously. These sizes are more than enough to take in big batches of liempo or fish to grill, or a big slab
of pork belly, rolled into a porchetta stuffed
with tanglad and other ingredients
that makes a lechon flavorful.
The 65L model has its own thermostat, which makes it
easier for any home chef to control the temperature in the oven and serve only
the best home-cooked Pinoy favorites.
It could even function as a rotisserie, so that it could cook any kind of meat evenly
and perfectly. And with its tempered glass lid, monitoring your culinary
specialty with the gas range door closed is a breeze. While all of the models
are using SBT burners to make every cooking experience safe, the 65L model even
has a flame failure device to keep gas from building up within the appliance.
These features do not only assure the safety of everyone and getting every
family member involved and to bond in the kitchen, they also enable Midea’s gas ranges to be handed down to the
next generation.
Cooking in large volumes and very frequently could
lead to a burnout, with gas tanks running out of fumes to keep you going. One
of the 58L models has a hot plate where it uses electricity to heat up the pans
and allows you to cook. This could be helpful in keeping the whole kitchen
running, even if it is just one stove cooking and everyone is taking a quick
break to wait for an LPG refill or replenishment. After everything is done and
everyone in the family, friends, or guests are satisfied with the feast,
cleaning up the Midea’s gas ranges is absolutely friendly because its body is
made out of tough stainless steel.
Midea is also confident in giving their customers a
2-year warranty on parts and labor along with a 5-year warranty on burners.
This could only mean that Midea’s lineup of gas ranges are there to stay in the
kitchen for a very long time, dealing with more hard core cooking, Filipino-style
for the years to come. With that much time, another younger generation of
family members will be ready to take on the family tradition and hopefully pass
on the cooking torch as well.
