ing. Heat is distributed in a gentle and even way,
which allows to recover taste and aroma of food

heat food directly on a plate. You can reheat
more than one plate at the same time, using dif-
ferent shelf positions.

with a very good professional-like result in terms
of crispiness, colour and crust gloss.

vents dough surface from drying and keeps the
