THE WOLF GOURMET

MULTI-FUNCTION COOKER

Wolf Gourmet®’s signature style and unparalleled engineering come together

to create the next countertop appliance—the Multi-Function Cooker. With so

many intelligent and customizable features, there’s no shortage of ways to use

this multi-purpose appliance to your advantage. Slow cook a pot roast, sear a

steak or sous vide a fish fillet all in the same versatile machine. It also features

a removable stainless steel vessel that holds large cuts of meat, like a pork rib

roast, cooks up to 18 cups of rice and can go directly in the oven to create

golden-crusted dishes, like gratins and fruit crisps.

The large digital display and intuitive controls add aesthetic appeal as well as

simple functionality. Using the Multi-Function Cooker will become such a part of

your routine, you will wonder how you cooked meals without it. The amount of

time saved really adds up. You don’t

have to use a separate pan to sauté

vegetables or sear meat before adding

them to slow cook because you can

do it right in the Multi-Function Cooker. You can cook an entire meal on your

countertop in this one vessel without sacrificing flavor or quality.

SLOW
COOKING

FUNCTIONALITY AND FINESSE COME
TOGETHER LIKE NEVER BEFORE—
HANDS-OFF COOKING AT ITS BEST

The Multi-Function Cooker is equipped with three slow cooking modes. Each of these functions
offers a different set of slow cooking options to meet your culinary needs at home, whether you favor
time-saving features or precise temperature settings.

MANUAL MODE is the most basic function offered by the Multi-Function Cooker in that it works
like a traditional slow cooker. You can select your food to be cooked on LOW, MEDIUM or HIGH
heat until your dish is ready, up to 24 hours.

MEAL TIMER MODE allows you to set the number of cooking hours based on when you want to
serve your meal and automatically adjusts the temperature throughout the cooking process, taking
the guesswork out of which heat setting to choose.

PROGRAM MODE lets you tailor your cooking experience to fit your needs. 1 PROGRAM offers the
flexibility to cook on a specific heat and time setting. 1 PROGRAM WITH PROBE uses a probe for
cooking to a specific internal temperature, instead of a heat setting like LOW or HIGH. 2 PROGRAMS
allows you to select two heat settings and times in a single cooking session.

SLOW COOKING

MANUAL MODE allows you to add all of your ingredients, select the right heat setting for your

food and go about your day. This mode works best with recipes and one-pot meals traditionally
prepared with a slow cooker or cuts of meat that become most tender with a long cooking time.

SLOW COOKING

MEAL TIMER MODE is the busy home cook’s best friend. There’s no need to worry about

overcooking dinner. Simply set the number of cooking hours based on when you want to serve
your meal. The Multi-Function Cooker automatically adjusts the temperature throughout the day
to ensure dinner is ready when you need it to be. Once you press start, you can tend to more
important matters knowing you will come home to an expertly cooked meal. It’s not a problem if
you happen to be delayed on your way home; the Multi-Function Cooker automatically switches
to WARM when your meal is finished cooking.

SOUS VIDE

GENTLE, EVEN COOKING FOR
MEATS, FISH, EGGS AND DESSERTS

SOUS VIDE Mode cooks sealed food to an exact temperature (between 100°F-200°F,
or 38°C-93°C) in temperature-controlled water. A removable sous vide rack can be used
to separate individual bags of food to ensure proper water heating. The timer counts up
to let you know how long your food has been cooking for easy monitoring.

SOUS VIDE Mode works best with steak, fish, vegetables, eggs or any other food that
needs to be gently and evenly cooked. After cooking in the temperature-controlled water,
steak, fish or poultry can be given a crispy and browned exterior by searing with the
SAUTÉ/SEAR Mode.

While most foods must be sealed in bags that are labeled safe for sous vide, egg dishes
and some desserts, like custards and cheesecakes, can be cooked in tightly sealed
glass jars. The jars make a beautiful presentation for individually portioned eggs and
desserts at any meal.

chocolate, 3 tablespoons (42 grams) unsalted butter
and 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) heavy whipping
cream. Microwave on medium in 30-second intervals,

Melted butter, for greasing the jars

6 slices (219 grams) bacon, cooked and

crumbled

9 large eggs (450 grams), room temperature

3 tablespoons (45 milliliters) whole milk

1. Fill the Multi-Function Cooker with 3 quarts

(2.85 liters) warm water. Set the Multi-Function

and thyme. Process until smooth, about

10 seconds. Add cheese and process until combined.

Pour the egg mixture into the jars, leaving ½ inch of

head space in each. Seal tightly with the lids.

4. When water reaches set temperature, add the

jars to the Multi-Function Cooker. Cover and

15 minutes. Top with cherry tomatoes, thyme and

black pepper, if desired.

½ teaspoon (1.5 grams) kosher salt

¼ teaspoon fresh thyme sprigs

1 cup (100 grams) freshly grated Gruyère cheese

Halved cherry tomatoes, fresh thyme sprigs,

ground black pepper, if desired

and caramelize, 3-4 minutes. Remove and let cool

for at least 10 minutes. Make as directed, omitting

bacon and Gruyère cheese. Divide caramelized
onions, 3 tablespoons (16 grams) chopped roasted

piquillo peppers, 6 teaspoons (12 grams) grated

50 | mu lti -f un ct io n c oo ke r

PRO TIP

If you leave your eggs frothy when pouring into the jars,
the bubbles cook into the eggs and will remain at the
top of the jar. To eliminate froth from forming, either
spoon it off before pouring eggs into the jars or simply
let the mixture rest—this will allow the froth to dissipate.
