“Miele’s products work extremely well in terms of the aesthetics of this space. I wanted to create a seamless look which these items achieve. The induction cooktop, in terms of function is incredible, its speed to heat something up is amazing, perfect for finishing dishes in front of the guests here with efficiency.”

Ashley's Coconut and ginger steamed chicken with fresh herb and noodle salad
Ashley relies on our steam oven to ensure perfectly succulent chicken every time when preparing her aromatic Coconut and ginger steamed chicken with fresh herb and noodle salad. Our steam appliances have been expertly crafted to preserve important vitamins and minerals when cooking thanks to our impressive DualSteam technology. A powerful 3.3 kW external steam generator creates steam quickly and then injects it into the cavity at high pressure. The result – perfectly even distribution of steam for uniform cooking results.
