OFYR Cedar Wood Planks are a must-have accessory for any outdoor cooking enthusiast looking to add a smoky, juicy touch to their preparations. Designed for the OFYR cooktop, these planks not only add a delicious flavour to food, but also prolong the cooking process, allowing dishes to cook slowly for a tender and flavoursome texture. Below, I detail each key aspect of these planks so you can make the most of their benefits.
Slow Cooking for Deep, Juicy Flavour
One of the greatest benefits of cedar planks is their ability to slow down the cooking process by up to 50%. This is ideal for meats, fish and vegetables, as it allows the food’s natural juices to stay in, enhancing texture and flavour. By cooking more slowly, food has time to better absorb aromas and flavours, resulting in juicier, more nuanced dishes with greater depth of flavour.
Unique Smoky Aroma in Every Preparation
Cedar is known for its aromatic properties. By using cedar wood planks, the heat from the cooktop generates a steam that penetrates the food, imbuing it with a characteristic smoky flavour. This flavour combines perfectly with all kinds of proteins such as fish, chicken or meat, as well as vegetables. Unlike the use of wood or charcoal chips, the aroma provided by these planks is milder and more refined, enhancing without overpowering the natural flavour of the ingredients.
Reusable with Proper Care
One of the most attractive features of cedar planks is that they are reusable. This not only makes them a more environmentally friendly and economical option in the long run, but also ensures a consistent dining experience if properly cared for. With proper maintenance, you will be able to use them several times, always enjoying the characteristic smoky taste without having to replace them after each use.
Exclusively for OFYR® Hobs
These planks are specifically designed for use on the OFYR cooktop, ensuring that food is cooked in a controlled and even manner. It is important not to place them in direct contact with flames or use them on traditional grills as they can quickly burn and lose their effectiveness. The indirect heat of the OFYR plate ensures that the planks do not burn, allowing for prolonged use and precise cooking.
Ideal for Keeping Food Warm
Once the food is ready, cedar planks also work perfectly for keeping food warm before serving. Placing them on the OFYR hotplate prevents dishes from cooling quickly without the need to reheat them, which is especially useful at outdoor events or gatherings where serving times can vary.
