I Got an AI-Powered Robot Chef to Cook My Sad Little Man Dinners. Here's Why I'm So Fond of It.
"There are exactly three meal-prep foods that I have on rotation: shredded beef, shredded pork, and, you guessed it, shredded chicken. All of these involve exactly two steps: Putting spices on a meat, and putting that meat into a crockpot. Every other dinner is leftovers or sandwich meat. Author Don't say I haven't tried. During the pandemic, I went through a jerky phase. I've sampled most of the meal prep boxes."
"The $1,500 countertop machine looks like a microwave gone premium. It's, say, 20 percent bigger, with an induction base, wide nonstick pot, and mechanical arm with three stirring attachments. From below, the reservoir pumps oil and water through a spout. On top, a rotating spice rack automatically doles out everything from salt to garam masala, no measurement required. A camera, which sits directly above the cooking area, takes pictures of the food in real time."
Many home cooks keep a minimal, repetitive meal-prep rotation of shredded meats and rely on crockpot simplicity. Pandemic-era experiments and expensive cooking classes failed to produce lasting new skills. A countertop cooking robot called Posha aims to change that by automating multiple steps. Posha combines an induction base, a wide nonstick pot, a mechanical stirring arm, a reservoir that pumps oil and water, and a rotating spice rack that dispenses seasonings without measurements. A camera photographs food in real time and perceptive AI assesses doneness for tasks like browning onions or achieving the right egg texture.
