We’re now launching into week three of our month-long member discount on Zavor multicookers and induction cooktops. All APPCA members are eligible to get a 35 percent discount on Zavor Electric Multicookers and Induction cooktops PLUS free shipping. Members may purchase up to one induction cooktop and one multicooker of their choice with the discount. The discount will be valid from September 15 to October 15, 2020, and you can obtain the details on our member forum’s private discussion group.

If you’re a chef who hasn’t put a multicooker to use on behalf of clients (or yourselves), we thought we’d share collections of recipes for its pressure cooking function this week. Next week, we’ll look into recipes for several other functions the multicooker offers, like making rice and yogurt, searing and even stir fry. The multicookers by Zavor can do both of these and much more. NOTE: Some of these links reference Instant Pot–but that shouldn’t make a difference to you in the context of recipes.

We’re very excited to announce a great deal only for our APPCA members!

All APPCA members are eligible to get a 35 percent discount on Zavor Electric Multicookers and Induction cooktops PLUS free shipping. Members may purchase up to one induction cooktop and one multicooker of their choice with the discount. The discount will be valid from September 15 to October 15, 2020.

Not familiar with Zavor? Well, you may remember the company Fagor America. In fact, we featured a promotion for members with Fagor back in 2017. The company shut its doors in 2018 but several longtime employees didn’t want to let the quality equipment disappear and launched Zavor before the end of 2018. Think of it as the phoenix of a late, great manufacturer.

Here’s what member April Lee of Tastefully Yours Personal Chef Services in Baltimore, who helped organize this discount with Zavor, said about the promotion:

“Zavor’s multicookers have been name as the best by leading industry reviewers: Cook’s Illustrated/America’s Test Kitchen, Consumer Reports, Food & Wine, Chowhound, EatingWell, and others. The discount plus free shipping really is a generous promotion and great opportunity for personal chefs to buy an excellent appliance.”

We’re betting that you’ll be thrilled with this new company’s wares!

The five products discounted for you include:

Induction PRO Cooktop: This cooktop cooks up to 50 percent faster than gas and electric, which saves energy. The cool glass surface means food will not stick. It has eight quick launch buttons for cooking functions: Warm, Simmer, Boil, Rapid Boil, Sauté, Brown, Sear and Stir Fry. Perfect to use as an extra cooking zone in the kitchen.

LUX Multicooker: The Lux Multicooker, available in 4, 6, and 8 quart capacities, offers 7 main functions from pressure cook and slow cook to steam/rice and yogurt. It also has keep warm and time delay functions, a mute feature, adjustable time and temperature, and 3-position pressure valve.

LUX Edge Multicooker: This multicooker has 14 preset functions, including pressure cooker, slow cooker, rice cooker, and yogurt maker. It also has a manual function for complete cooking control. It’s available in 4, 6, and 8 quart capacities. There is a keep warm function for up to 24 hours and a time delay function for up to 6 hours.

LUX LCD Multicooker: The LUX LCD Multicooker was named the Best Multicooker in the market in 2018 by America’s Test Kitchen. It features an LCD screen and has 10 main functions and over 30 settings, plus a Flex setting that allows you to program your own cooking temperature. It is available in 4, 6, and 8 quart capacities.

LUX LCD Multicooker Black: This multicooker has the same functions as the LUX LCD Multicooker, but is available in a stunning black metal finish. It is available in 6 and 8 quart capacities.
