Hello
Was trying to look to preview techno gadgets on Japanese websites and came across one of the best cooking gadgets I've ever seen!
It's a new type of oven called Healsio by Sharp. It uses super-heated steam at 300 degress celsius to roast food. Apparently it can even make (non soggy) toast!

The film picture link shows videos of food cooking. 'Cos it's in Japanese I didn't realise at first that the food was being cooked by invisible vapourised steam and wondered what all the fuss was!

It comes out in the UK end of 2005 and will be too expensive for me to buy!
Cheers
