There is no doubt that life has become more expensive recently. As electricity bills put more and more pressure on our pockets, a way to make the most of electricity has emerged, and one of its uses is to use the heat generated by different appliances to cook food.
Although this may sound strange to those who have never heard of it, the fact is that this technology has been circulating in some circles for some time. Of course, it has its drawbacks, but it allows you to prepare some dishes while we wash the dirty dishes.
The trick is to place the food in an airtight glass jar. The dishwasher cycle reaches a temperature of about 50 degrees, which is enough to slowly cook some ingredients, but you have to be very careful because this heat is not enough to eliminate some bacteria, so you have to make sure the jars are clean. Seal completely before inserting them into the device. Today we bring you three recipes so that you can try this technique.
