APPARAruS FOR COOKING AND MASHING
ASTARCHY VEGETABLE FOOD
This invention relates to cooking apparatus and, more especially, this invention relates to apparatus for cooking and mashing a starchy vegetable food. The starchy vegetable food may be, for example, yams, potatoes, sweet potatoes, plantains, pumpkins, cassavas or beans.
Yams are starchy tuber-type vegetable food which are widely eaten in Africa, Asia, Latin America and Oceana. There are many different types of yam varieties. Yam tubers can grow up to 2.5 metres in length and they can weigh up to 70Kg. The yams have a rough skin which is difficult to peel, but which softens after heating. Yam skins vary in colour from dark brown to light pink. Underneath the skin, the yams are composed of a relatively soft substance which is known as the "meat" and which ranges in colour from white to bright orange in ripe yams. Yam tubers can be stored for four-six months without refrigeration, which makes them a valuable source of food in countries where food is not readily available at different seasonal periods.
Yams of African varieties must be cooked in order to be eaten safely.
This is because various natural substances in raw yams can cause illness.
The cooking of the yams is a time-consuming process, involving pounding, leaching and boiling in order to remove the toxins. If the yams are to be served in the form of a mash, then the yams are boiled in water in order to soften their skins, and then they are pounded in a large pestle and mortar until the desired consistency is reached. The entire process of cooking the yams, and also cooking similar products, is time consuming and tiring.
It is an aim of the present invention to reduce the above mentioned problem.
Accordingly, in one non-limiting embodiment of the present invention there is provided apparatus for cooking and mashing a starchy vegetable food, which apparatus comprises: (I) a first container which is for the food, and in which the food is cooked by steaming under pressure; (ii) a second container for containing water; (iii) an electrically-operated heating element for heating the water in the second container and generating steam for cooking the food in the first container; (iv) mashing means for mashing the food after it has been steamed; (v) an electrically operated motor for operating the masher means; and (vi) control means for controlling the cooking of the food by the steaming under pressure, and the mashing of the food by the mashing means.
The apparatus of the present invention is advantageous in that starchy vegetable food such for example as yams can easily be cooked without the previous time-consuming and laborious manual efforts.
Preferably, the first container comprises perforations for enabling the steam to contact the food. The perforations may be in a base and/or sides of the first container.
The apparatus may include a mashing bowl which is located inside the first container and in which the food is mashed. The mashing bowl is advantageously designed with curved surfaces which facilitate good mashing of the food.
Preferably, the mashing means comprises a plurality of mashing arms which extend from a drive shaft and which rotate to cause the mashing of the food. Other types of mashing means may be employed if desired. The mashing may be effected with a pounding action such that the food is pounded.
The mashing arms may each have a shank portion which terminates in a head portion. The head portions of the mashing arms are advantageously positioned at different heights in the first container, thereby to ensure that the food is mashed at different levels in the first container.
The mashing arms may have protuberances for augmenting the mashing of the food. The protuberances may be of any suitable and appropriate shape and size. The protuberances are preferably positioned on the head portions of the mashing arms but the protuberances may be positioned elsewhere if desired.
The apparatus may have blade members for cutting food in pieces.
The blade members may form part of the mashing means. The blade members may be separate blade members or they may form part of the mashing arms.
The control means may comprise a control panel having control settings for cooking different types of the food. Preferably, the control means compnses scroll means for providing the control settings as a list of control settings in scrollable form. The control means may be connected to a micro-processor which may provide for required different food processing programs.
The control means may include push buttons or touch buttons for operating the control means.
The apparatus of the present invention may include memory means for retaining recipes.
The memory means may include receiver means for receiving the recipes. The receiver means may be a Blue Tooth receiver, a (JSB port interface, or any other suitable and appropriate receiver means.
The apparatus of the present invention is preferably mains operated.
The apparatus may however be battery operated if desired.
Usually, the apparatus will be constructed as a portable stand-alone unit for use on a kitchen work surface or other surface. Other constructions for the apparatus may however be employed. The apparatus may be constructed for domestic or commercial use.
The apparatus may be one in which the control means includes a micro-processor.
The apparatus may be one which includes an in-build memory system.
The apparatus of the present invention is preferably employed for cooking food in the form of yams. The apparatus may however be employed for cooking other food including, for example, yams, potatoes, sweet potatoes, piantains, pumpkins, cassavas or beans.
An embodiment of the invention will now be described solely by way of example and with reference to the accompanying drawings in which: Figure 1 is a sectional side view of apparatus for cooking and mashing a starchy vegetable food; Figure 2 is a perspective view of the apparatus shown in Figure 1 but without a lid which closes the apparatus shown in Figure 1; Figure 3 is a sectional side view like Figure 1, taken on the same plane but at a different location and shows in more detail various parts of the apparatus; Figure 4 is a side view of the apparatus shown in Figure 1; Figure 5 is a top view of the apparatus shown in Figure 1; Figure 6 is an exploded view showing the various parts of the apparatus shown in Figure 1; and Figure 7 is an exploded view showing parts shown in Figure 6.
Referring to the drawings, there is shown apparatus 2 for cooking and mashing a starchy vegetable food. The apparatus 2 comprises a first container 4 which is for the food, and in which the food is cooked by steaming under pressure.
The apparatus 2 comprises a second container 6 for containing water.
An electrically..operated heating element 8 is provided for heating the water in the second container 6 and generating steam for cooking the food in the first container 4.
The apparatus 2 further comprises mashing means 10 for mashing the food after it has been steamed. An electrically-operated motor 12 operates the mashing means 10. The electrically-operated motor 12 is an induction motor.
The apparatus 2 further comprises control means 14 for controlling the cooking of the food by the steaming under pressure, and the mashing of the food by the mashing means 10. As shown in Figure 4, the control means 14 is positioned in the side of a housing 16. The housing 16 is provided with a base part 18.
The first container 4 comprises perforations 20 for enabling the steam to contact the food. The perforations 20 are in an upper part of sides of the first container 4.
