Prep Chef and Prep Chef Compact

A must-have at Matfer Bourgeat, Prep Chef

is now available in two new versions: the detachable version, ideal for mass catering, and the detachable “compact” version, for smaller catering facilities. To dismantle the Prep Chef column, nothing could be simpler. Just turn the push button and in one simple movement it can be stowed away in a small space. In addition to saving space, once dismantled, Prep Chef can be cleaned even more quickly and efficiently.

But that’s not all! Matfer Bourgeat has come up with a new, even more versatile version of Prep Chef. It is modular, the new chef’s clerk: in a single tool, now offering 15 functions to cut, slice and crush fresh produce: fruit, potatoes, vegetables, cheese, eggs, and even onions! The hardened steel knives are extremely efficient and allow for perfect cutting without tearing. Thanks to a brand new tip, cutting 1 kilogram of onions into cubes takes less than a minute. As for the potato masher, it gives an exceptional texture. Of course, all these new attachments are adaptable and interchangeable on the Prep Chef and Prep Chef Compact supports.

Ergonomic, with wide and secure handles, Prep Chef offers even more comfort, for fast and efficient use due to the pusher’s lift springs. With its composite material support, it is light and robust. The compact version can be positioned on all types of gastro containers.

Pate en croute

It is one of the oldest hors d’oeuvres in French gastronomy and yet it has never been so contemporary! Returning to the forefront of the culinary scene, the 2020 Plain crusted pate is designed to be light, crumbly and, why not more “healthy” with vegetables. As a result, Matfer Bourgeat offers new mould shapes for inventive savoury pastries with innovative dimensions!

Each plain crusted pate has its own mould … For fish pates, the brand new round 20 cm diameter and 9 cm high round pate mould is original and highly suitable. Two hinged half-rings make it easy to remove from the mould without damaging the dough crust.

For an imposing rectangular pate, the Long Pate mould – 30 cm long by 8.5 cm wide and 8.5 cm high – will work wonders. This combination really is the ideal proportion with for result the perfect balance of pate and stuffing and a thinner crust for a less filling effect.

The new dimensions are suitable for all ovens. The moulds are made of exopan – fine steel with a non-stick coating on the inside and a protective coating on the outside, to prevent sticking.

Contouring systems on the sides of the mould ensure better heat circulation for even baking… and a very aesthetic visual aspect.

Gastroflex

Gastroflex, turns out perfectly without prior greasing through the use of excellent quality silicone, tested at high temperatures. For sweet or savoury preparations, Matfer Bourgeat offers a wide variety of shapes: madeleine, pyramid, savarin, petits fours, tartlet … And this year, new mould imprint sizes are available: half-spheres in 30 and 80 mm diameter, grooved 45 mm cannelé Bordelais moulds, as well as cubes in 50 and 35 mm.

Matfer Bourgeat uses high performance silicone superior to French legal requirements. As a result, Gastroflex sheets are thicker with a much longer life span; without risk of breakage after multiple use given that they are particularly resistant to deformation and impact. Gastroflex moulds can be used for baking as well as for cold storage, from minus 50 to + 250°C. They are compatible with all kitchen ovens and can be simply cleaned with water.

Stackable cloche for pastry tray

Matfer Bourgeat has provided the optimal space saving solution with the new stackable cloche for pastry trays. To meet the requirements of professionals, this cloche for pastry trays is a unique solution to protect products from direct contact with air and humidity, allowing them to be stored and transported safely from the laboratory to the shop. Suitable in all situations, it will prove indispensable, with the added advantage of being perfectly adapted to pinch-edged trays.

Not all laboratories have the luxury of unlimited storage space, and this cloche has the advantage of being unobtrusive. In between uses, it can be stacked empty. A precious space saver when you know how valuable laboratory workspace is! When full, it can be stacked without any risk of slipping thanks to the skids inserted onto the individual moulds.

In addition, the Matfer Bourgeat cloche for pastry trays adapts to its environment to make life easier for its users.

In thermoformed PET, with a 600 x 400 mm format and a height of 61 mm, this is the cloche to revolutionize the work of bakers and pastry chefs.

Its double reservoir system allows two products to be injected into the same bag. Easy to use with a traditional piping bag, Duo nozzles allow a multitude of combinations of colours and flavours, according to the inspiration of pastry chefs and cooks. The possible use of different types of nozzles (fluted, plain, log …) increases the ability to create original decorations!
