The single-phase electric hot holding unit provides versatility to a range of commercial kitchens, offering a hinged door, countertop, under-counter or built-in design and with an optional shelf, commanding flexibility and portability and ideal for a compact commercial kitchen.
Alongside maintaining optimal taste and texture, the Hot Star enhances food safety by ensuring food is kept at safe temperatures, resulting in less food wastage. Operators can rely on the hot holding cabinet to hold a wide range of food items either throughout the day or when transporting it from one location to another, all whilst maintaining freshness.
Philip Sanderson, Business Development Manager at Valentine & CuisinEquip comments:
“With challenges around staff training and retention, reliability, flexibility and ease of use are essential within busy commercial kitchens. As a supplier of high-quality catering equipment to the foodservice sector, our equipment is found in commercial kitchens across the country and we’re proud of our reputation for delivering robust, reliable and hardwearing equipment, backed by comprehensive aftersales service and support. We are therefore delighted to be introducing the Locher Hot Star Hot Holding Cabinet to our extensive range of quality equipment. Designed with the latest, innovative technology, the Locher Hot Star delivers ultimate precision, not only streamlining the cooking process and allowing chefs to work more efficiently but also maintaining food quality and minimising waste.”
Harnessing technology that is capable of driving quality and consistency, the intuitive digital touch-sensitive control panel not only offers heat moisture control to ensure food looks and tastes as if it has just been cooked but allows operators to achieve highly precise electronic temperature control with simplicity. For added flexibility and adaptability in a commercial kitchen, the Locher Hot Star comes in three models – the ‘HotStar’ with space for 3 x 1/1gn trays, the ‘HotStar Mega’ with space for 5 x 1/1gn trays – and the ‘HotStar Heated Drawer’ which features a 1/1gn drawer, in which a tray can be inserted. Both the HotStar and HotStar Mega are also available with a temperature probe for accurate holding and slow overnight cooking and all units are controlled via an intuitive, easy-to-operate digital panel. Using manually operated, openable air vents, the humidity inside the chamber can be adjusted, ensuring the unit is ideal for even the most delicate of ingredients.
