Introducing the Tefal COOK4ME Intelligent Multicooker.

With more and more people wanting great tasting recipes, cooked at home, and not always knowing where to start, or having the time, Tefal introduces Cook4me. Cook4me is an intelligent interactive multicooker with over 80 pre-programmed recipes that guide you step-by-step so you can cook deliciously tasty meals, but in a fraction of the time.

In the Tefal COOK4ME product review, Mouths of Mums members will receive a Tefal COOK4ME so that they can trial, review and create some wonderful meals for their families.

The Tefal COOK4ME is a revolution in the kitchen!

The interactive control panel guides you through each step to ensure your meal is cooked to perfection while allowing you to cook for 2, 4, or 6 people at a time. Tefal Cook4Me also saves you time with over 65% of the pre-programmed recipes taking less than 12 minutes to cook, and over 80 recipes using  six ingredients or less. Cooking has never been so easy with Tefal Cook4Me.

The Tefal Cook4Me not only saves you time and relieves the stress of cooking at the end of a long day, but with the ‘Delayed Start’ function, you can program your meals to be ready the moment you step through the door. You can delay the start of cooking your meal for up to 15 hours in advance so all you need to do is plate it up and enjoy your delicious meal with the family. What’s more, the ‘Auto Keep Warm’ function will ensure those late arrivals won’t be served an evening meal that has gone cold.

The 6L capacity allows you to cook for up to six people so you can feed the whole family at the push of a button. It has a self-release safety valve and a removable non-stick bowl with cool touch handles so cleaning is a breeze too.

  • Brilliant for busy families!

    I've just started using my COOK4ME. I was impressed with the size as with a family of 5, I wanted to be able to cook for us all, so with the options of cooking for 2, 4 and 6 - this is perfect.

    The options to brown and to keep warm are brilliant! I have a slow cooker and never bother browning meat as it means an extra pan, extra time and effort. With the Tefal COOK4ME, I can do it all in one - perfect!

    I also love the 'keep warm' function with a husband who often works late, and teens who have activities that often end around tea time or after.

    I have made a green chicken curry, beef stroganoff and bolognaise sauce this week, and the family have loved them all. So quick and easy! I really look forward to using it more and testing out it's capabilities - especially now the weather is getting cooler. Risotto is next on my list!

    Being so easy to use and to clean has made the COOK4ME a perfect addition to our falmily!

    I bought a tefal cook 4 me, 4 months ago and it's honestly the best appliance in my kitchen. It's easy to use and makes getting dinner read for my family quick and healthy. The recipes are easy to do and taste delicious. I love the green Thai curry and massaman beef, hubby commented that he will never get Thai takeaway again, it's just so good.

  • This just gets better and better.

    Well my fry pan died last night right as im about to fry up the mince for our spag bol. But never fear for Tefal is here. So I use the manual cooking option and brown mince. Then I chuck in the sauce and continue to brown. By leaving the lid open I ensured it wouldnt go to watery as previous recipes have done.

    So once cooked enough I served as usual. It was still full of flavour and the texture the same as it always is in the normal pan. So the Tefal COOK 4ME saved me from a night of cardboard takeaway much to the kiddoes disappointment.

    Love love love the versatility.

    I used my daughters TEFAL to make the mushroom soup in the recipe book. Got all the ingredients that I needed together and from there it was so easy. Told me step by step what to do and then it simmered away while I went and did other things.

    I was given a cook 4 me for my birthday, I loved it when I first got it and I still love it now. It took me a while yo be confident to use the manual setting but now I haven't looked back. This appliance has saved me so much time and makes cooking easier when my 15 month old will not sit still while I prepare dinner. I highly recommend this to anyone who is looking for something to make their lives easier. You will figure out how to adjust the recipies and create new ones in no time.

  • Great cooker

    We have had the tefal cook4me cooker for app 7 months now.

    I am mostly cooking the easy 3 min meals.

    I found chilli con carne to be my favourite,

    The machine is eay to use. You just have to make sure you have the right amount of juice/or water a few times i have had my meal stuck in the cooker because it said low water level. But that was my fault. The cakes taste ok not like you would make in a oven and i try to avoid making deserts just because my own personal taset i dont like the taste of steamed cake. Over all perfect machine looks meat so tender. Would buy again .

Article ‘I Grabbed My Car Keys And RAN!’ The New Supermarket Bread Everyone’s Talking About

‘I Grabbed My Car Keys And RAN!’ The New Supermarket Bread Everyone’s Talking About

Mum-of-two Rebecca McCracken has spent the last four years reading ingredient lists on pretty much everything she buys at the supermarket.

Like many parents raising kids with food allergies, a quick trip to the supermarket often means checking labels, comparing products and hoping to find something the whole family can eat.

Bec’s four-year-old son and 17-month-old daughter were both born with cow’s milk protein allergy. While her son has since outgrown his allergies, her toddler still reacts to dairy, making even everyday staples like bread a challenge.

“Unless we buy expensive sourdough for seven or eight dollars, we don’t really have a choice.”

Even then, it’s not ideal.

“A kid doesn’t want to eat a sourdough sandwich,” Bec laughs. “And fairy bread on sourdough is not great.”

A New Loaf On The Block

Bec runs an online community for allergy families, so she spends plenty of time sharing recipes, product finds and supermarket discoveries with other parents.

It was one of those parents who first told her about new JUST bread.

“A follower messaged me and said, ‘Oh my gosh, this bread is coming soon.’ I was like, ‘Where? When? I need to know. I’m getting my car keys and running!'”

Made with baker’s flour, water, yeast, vinegar, oil and salt, JUST bread contains no artificial preservatives, flavours or colours.

For Bec, it sounded almost too good to be true. “When we saw JUST bread, I was like, ‘You’re joking.’ A bread that’s fresh baked but in the bread aisle? That’s unheard of for us.”

“It was really exciting for our family and for the allergy community.”

The Family’s Toughest Critic Approved

Of course, there was one person whose opinion mattered more than anyone else’s.

“My toughest critic is my daughter. She is so fussy. We know something is really good if she approves it, and she approves it. She loves it. She’ll eat it plain, toasted, as French toast … whatever. She loves it.”

Bec says she was impressed too.

“I like it. I like that it’s only got minimal ingredients and doesn’t have the additives and preservatives that are in a lot of other brands.”

A Simpler Option For Everyday Families

Bec tried out JUST bread because of her family’s allergies, but she says it has a broader appeal.

“I think everyone is becoming more conscious of additives and preservatives in their food.”

It’s a feeling many of us can probably relate to. We don’t all want to overhaul the way we eat, but plenty of us are paying a little more attention to ingredient lists and looking for products that keep things simple.

Bread is one of those foods that’s always around. It ends up in lunchboxes, on the breakfast table, alongside soup on a cold night and covered in hundreds and thousands at birthday parties. When we eat something that often, it’s only natural to wonder what’s in it.

JUST bread keeps things simple with a handful of pantry ingredients and no artificial preservatives, flavours or colours. It’s the sort of loaf that fits easily into busy family life without asking us to compromise on taste or convenience.

Little Changes, Big Difference

 

For Bec, finding a loaf of bread her whole family can enjoy is about more than ticking another item off the shopping list.

“It seems like such a little thing to the normal community, but for us this is a massive win.”

Being able to make sandwiches without worrying about ingredients. Packing lunchboxes a little more easily. Bringing back fairy bread for birthdays. Sometimes it’s the little things that make family life feel a whole lot simpler.

And while Bec found JUST bread because she needed another allergy-friendly option, its simple ingredient list is likely to appeal to plenty of other families too. After all, when we can choose everyday foods made with ingredients we recognise, that’s a pretty good place to start.

JUST Bread is made on a line that also processes soy and sesame.

Mouths of Mums is proudly working with JUST. to bring you this article. JUST bread is made with just a handful of pantry ingredients.  JUST. The Good Stuff.

  • It’s at a good price point for families on a tight budget and is “cleaner” but missing the mark with Canola oil . I wouldn’t be running to a supermarket for it but it’s alot better than other varieties on the market. It’s nice to see supermarkets are at least trying and listening

    Reply

  • Most breads are dairy free anyway so I am surprised by this article. Additive free is a bonus. I always go for a grain bread nowadays and have the kids eating it too so I’ll be sticking with that. It’s always great to have variety out there though for the ones that need it.

    Reply

  • We bought this bread from the supermarket and it is a good price for bread which of course can indeed be expensive. Each slice is a good size and our favourite meal to create and eat with this bread is cheese toasties. The bread holds and is good to eat.

    Reply

  • I am so glad to hear about this and will definitely be on a look out for this in the supermarket. I have noticed that there are starting to be more ‘cleaner’ products in the supermarket, meaning consumers are being heard. We are going full circle back to how foods use to be produced before companies got greedy and started taking shortcuts to producing food items. I hope we continue seeing more preservative and additive free options that are affordable come back in the supermarkets.

  • Grabbing your car keys and running for a bread ?? I can’t imagine doing so for a bread lol ! It’s nice to see that more and more allergy friendly products are being produced and put on the market.
    I don’t agree with the statement that “A kid doesn’t want to eat a sourdough sandwich”. It depends on what type of bread you introduce to your kids. My kids grew up with 7 seeds, rustic bread and sourdough and they love it. It’s also quite easy and cheap to make sourdough bread yourself.

    Reply

  • I haven’t seen this bread in the supermarket but will be looking for it now. I have been trying to avoid preservatives and additives for some time now and as highlighted in the article bread it difficult to find, or super expensive, without them so I don’t have it often.

    Reply

  • This is fantastic, finally a bread that is not full of nasty stuff. I will be going straight out to buy this. My son has ARFID and will only eat white bread, but it’s not terribly healthy. With this bread, at least I know that it is much healthier than the alternatives. Woohoo

  • what about gluten is it gluten free thats what i need

    Reply

  • I cant wait to give this bread a go (so far its always been sold out at my local woolies so it must be good). So good its suitable for those with allergies too. I think nowadays were all looking for cleaner options of ingredients in our foods so this is a step in the right direction.

    Reply

  • I am glad more and more allergy friendly products are being produced and offered. I don’t agree with Bec’s statement that kids don’t like sourdough bread. My kids were introduced to sourdough and the most rustic and seeded breads from the time they started to eat bread, and they love it

    Reply

  • Oh I cannot wait to try this bread! We go through that much bread each week and I always feel so guilty with how much my kids have – not anymore! Would love to see them introduce other variants in the future – multigrain and gluten free would be superb!

    Reply

  • This is such a great product that I’m looking forward to trying! I’ve only been buying bread from bakeries the last few years because grocery store bread texture was so dense and unpleasant. But the hassle with bakery bread is I can’t get it everywhere! I’ll be really keen to give this a go
