equipment (e.g., immersion circulator, blowtorches)

Equipment like immersion circulators and blowtorches are tools used in cooking and food preparation. An immersion circulator heats water to a precise temperature for sous-vide cooking, ensuring even and controlled results. It typically consists of a high-quality immersion heater attached to a motorized circulator that maintains the water at a set temperature. Blowtorches, on the other hand, provide direct, high-temperature flames used for finishing dishes—such as caramelizing sugar, searing meat, or adding a crispy surface. Both tools enhance precision and texture in culinary techniques, making them valuable for achieving specific flavors and appearances in dishes.
