Hearth and Soul

Turn Your Oven into a Hearth Oven

You’ve grilled salmon steaks on your George Foreman, sizzled turkey bacon in the microwave, even whipped up soy smoothies in your blender.

So why is it you haven’t seen the inside of an oven since you acted out Sylvia Plath in a game of charades back in college?

You’re ready to graduate from small appliances to old-fashioned oven cooking. (Operative word being old-fashioned.) HearthKit converts your oven into a hearth oven, which means you can make roasts, breads, and veggies that taste like they came out of a brick oven. Hearth cooking is better because it combines conductive, radiant, and ambient heat, so you can cook food at temperatures 50 to 150 degrees higher without burning the bejesus out of it. But never mind the science. All you need to know is that your grub will cook faster, be juicier, and taste better.

The HearthKit comes in two sizes, fits most conventional ovens, and takes less than a minute to install. Now get off your keister and start cooking.

Because incompetence in the kitchen is so 1998.
