ABSTRACT:
A machine to fast cook individual servings of spaghetti and the like, particularly spaghetti which has a microscopic bore through the center of each strand, comprises a pressurized boiler to heat water to a temperature of about 155 degrees Celsius under pressure of about 7 atmospheres or about 105 psi, a first cooking chamber to receive an individual serving of spaghetti for cooking and to thereafter receive the heated and pressurized water from the boiler to cook the spaghetti for about thirty seconds, a second cooking chamber to which the partially cooked spaghetti is then transferred through a conduit whose passage is controlled by a ball valve for further cooking in water at a temperature of about 90 degrees Celsius for a duration of about twenty seconds. The second cooking chamber is in the lower part of a housing which includes an expansion chamber above the cooking chamber, such expansion chamber enabling the pressurized water from the first cooking chamber to decompress, vaporize and escape through a discharge outlet. The bottom of the second cooking chamber has a hinged lid which opens after water has been drained therefrom to deposit the cooked spaghetti on to a serving plate.
