VersaWok

The VersaWok Stir-Frying Cooker mechanizes stir-frying of Asian-style dishes on an industrial scale, with batch sizes up to 1,000-lb (454-kg), while producing high quality results equivalent to those prepared by the hand of a seasoned chef.

Thermal oil circulates through the VersaWok's serpentine channel jacket at up to 590°F (310°C) - far hotter than possible with standard steam supply and without nagging “hot & cold” spots common to direct-flame heated cookers - providing the extremely high temperatures necessary to sear the surface of ingredients while retaining the crisp, fresh inner texture expected of traditionally prepared Asian stir-fried dishes.

Automated agitation mimics distinctive wok mixing action.

Patented temperature resistant scraper system minimizes burn-on.

Blentech engineers have automated the VersaWok's agitation action to replicate the distinctive mixing and tossing action needed to properly stir-fry products. The PLC-controlled agitator includes “batch balancing” technology to guarantee maximum cooking efficiency. A version of Blentech's patented scraper system, manufactured of a temperature resistant polymer, is critical to inhibiting burn-on when stir-frying at such high temperatures.

The multi-recipe PLC operating program ensures results are repeatable and consistent, batch after batch. An optional product chilling system doses cryogen (Co2 or N2) on the batch halting residual cooking to keep the crisp texture of ingredients intact after discharge.

The VersaWok is the stir-fry system of choice for premier food processors seeking to prepare authentic Asian food products of superior quality.
