Detail Spotlight: Epicure 30" Gas RangeHOW LUXURY COOKING SHOULD BE DONE

You have been inspired by your favorite chefs and are excited to test the Spicy Ginger Chicken Satay or Spinach-Fontina Lasagna recipes you have read in The Simple Art of Convection Cooking Cookbook or one of the many you have seen on television. 

You want the most from your cooking experience and that includes professional-level results. For that, you need performance like the pros.

Gas cooking allows for greater accuracy, more precise temperature control and easier ignition. With gas, there is no waiting for the burner to warm up or cool down and cooking stops as soon as you turn off the burner. Foods can cook faster and more evenly and Dacor’s new Epicure® 30” Gas Range gives you the advantage you need to get the results you want.

Epicure 30" Gas RangeWith the Epicure 30” Gas Range, you can effortlessly achieve gourmet results with an appliance that radiates a feeling of luxury and gives complete control over every aspect of the cooking experience.

Additionally, this new range fits perfectly into any shabby chic cottage, upscale urban condominium or ornate Victorian kitchen, offering both impeccable design and all the benefits of a professional kitchen appliance.

The commercial-inspired stainless steel style of the Epicure 30” Gas Range offers all the durability and control preferred in professional cooking appliances, with exclusive details that appeal to distinguished cooks and design savvy consumers alike, including features that make cooking safer and cleanup easier.

SIGNATURE DETAILS 
Epicure 30" Gas Range: Illumina Burner Controls
 
Epicure 30" Gas Range: SimmerSear Burner 
Epicure 30" Gas Range: Extra-Wide Continuous Platform Grates 
Epicure 30" Gas Range: Three-Part Convection System 


Featuring the remarkable details that make Dacor ranges works of art; the  Epicure 30” Gas Range has a brilliant appearance that looks cool, even at its highest temperatures.  Designed for greater safety, Dacor’s exclusive Illumina™ Burner Control Knobs function as stylish accents that glow in the brand’s signature “flame-blue,” visually indicating the range is in the “on” position even when the flame is barely visible at its lowest point. 

High-performing SimmerSear™ Burners deliver professional-level accuracy over a wide range of cooking temperatures for the perfect simmer, sear or sauté.  Each burner is designed to accommodate your every need, whether the recipe requires an ultra-low heat to melt butter or chocolate, or a fast-rolling boil to cook pasta.  The multiple sealed burner configurations allow cooks to prepare different foods, at different BTUs, and in various sized pots and pans, all at the same time. 

Two 14” Continuous Platform Grates make maneuvering pots and pans around the burners a simple task and provide an especially spacious cooking surface to fit oversized cookware easily. The heavy-duty cast iron grates extend to the sides of the range to create a larger cooking surface and sit on four rubber feet so they can be safely transported from cooktop to countertop without damaging surfaces.   A one-piece spill basin sits underneath each pair of burners to catch any food or grease that falls through, simplifying cleanup. 

The exclusive Three-Part Convection System™ uses the fan, air baffle and convection filter to ensure precise oven temperature control, superior cooking performance and zero flavor transfer, while the stainless steel bake element, rated at 30,000 BTU and the increased power of the infrared ceramic broil element provide superior power. 

With four cooking modes – Convection Bake, Convection Broil, Bake and Broil – you can explore a wide range of culinary options. The simple control panel has an easily accessible switch to toggle between conventional and convection cooking modes. 

Optional removable searing grill, griddle and wok accessories provide you with the ultimate tools to be completely creative in the kitchen. The flexibility to store away the griddle and searing grill when not in use keeps the cooking surface free and clear of clutter. Dishwasher safe, the griddle features a superior nonstick scratch-resistant coating, and the wok ring can accommodate any size wok.
