Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9303310A1] An oven using one or more quartz halogen tungsten lamps or quartz arc bulbs (16, 18) capable of producing 4KW of radiant energy of which a significant portion is in the visible light range of the electromagnetic spectrum and substantially forty to fifty percent of the radiation is in the visible and near visible range impinges visible, near visible and infrared radiation directly onto a food item (32). Radiation sources (16, 18) can be positioned above and below the food item (32) and the inner walls (12) of the oven are preferably highly reflective to reflect light energy onto the food (32). The intensity of the radiation light source (16, 18) is automatically controllable and can be varied throughout the cooking cycle.
