Thanks to this Marta MT-4314 model, you can please your loved ones with such dishes as homemade yogurt, roast, jelly, boiled pork. You can cook jam or vitamin juice in a slow cooker. Automatic programs are especially valuable in that the temperature in them is selected taking into account the preparation of the dish while maintaining its beneficial properties. In the instructions that came with the multicooker, all the programs are listed and what you can cook thanks to them. The name of the program does not always mean a rigid cooking framework. For example, if the “Jam/Jam” program involves the preparation of only jam and jam, then the “Milk porridge” program involves the preparation of all types of liquid porridges, both dairy and non-dairy. The pilaf program will help you cook not only pilaf itself, but also risotto, paella.
The ability of the multicooker to set independently the duration and temperature in a number of automatic programs further expands the range of their use. Moreover, she will remember the last entered data and reproduce them the next time she cooks. An entire kitchenette in one place.
A feature of the Marta MT-4314 multicooker is also in the SMART program. This setting allows you to take into account different time and temperature conditions for cooking a dish in several stages. You no longer need to be afraid of how to cook soup in a slow cooker. She has already thought of everything, it remains only to press the button.
Built-in two-stage cooking programs allow you to cook pilaf or bread as if it were done by hand, with the necessary break and temperature change. An audible signal will tell you when the multicooker has changed the mode. Setting in the "user programs" mode allows you to prepare your own individual recipes. All settings are made manually. But the "express" program will quickly prepare side dishes from cereals. Cooking is carried out by evaporating water, which you need to pour yourself.
The "multi-cook" program is designed to set the time and temperature manually, accurate to the minute and degree. Works in tandem with programs "chef" and "shev-pro". The first allows you to directly adjust the settings, the second saves them in memory. Any, even the oldest, recipe can be cooked in a slow cooker using manual settings.
Heating control functions, such as "auto-heating", "auto-heating off" allow you to pause before serving the dish, without fear that it will burn or cool down. For example, your guests are delayed or distracted by a phone call - the program will automatically control the temperature of the dish.
"Delayed start" helps several programs run at a specific time. For example, getting up in the morning for hot porridge or not enjoying a freshly cooked dinner upon arrival from work.

This multicooker model is equipped with a bowl, the coating of which is made of the latest type of coating GREBLON C3 + according to German technology. The coating is ecological, which is completely safe when cooking. It requires careful care and exclusion of damaging actions.
The multicooker includes 46 cooking programs. Of these, 16 are auto-settings and 30 are individual settings. The difference between them is as follows: in automatic mode, the cooking time and temperature are set, and in manual mode they are set independently.
The "multi-cook" mode allows you to set the desired values yourself. cooking is possible in a temperature range from 30 degrees to 180. Any time can be set, within a radius of 24 hours. Accordingly, this program allows you to cook any recipe that comes to mind.
The multicooker allows you to show your imagination when using a set of standard programs. For example, you can cook meat according to 5 programs, not counting the “multi-cook” function: “stewing”, “jelly”, “steam”, “frying”, “baking”. At the same time, you do not need to stand and wait for it to cook, the programs themselves will adjust the cooking time.
"Auto heating", so beloved by many housewives and young mothers, is available in this model too. Only the “yogurt” and “frying” programs do not support automatic heating.
"Reheating" allows you to heat up already prepared food, doing your own thing and not being afraid that it will burn or run away.
Delayed start is also one of my favorite features.It is incredibly convenient to come from the cold to cooked hot food. Or a mother with a small child - to raise the whole family to an already prepared breakfast, which was organized by an electronic assistant.
In addition to the basic functions, the multicooker was supplemented with unique features.

A convenient solution for the hostess to combine a pressure cooker and a multicooker in one appliance. In it, you can cook, in addition to various programs, in two modes - without pressure and under pressure. The bowl for cooking is thick-walled, made of environmentally friendly GREBLON CK2 material. The covering differs in durability and lack of harmful allocations during cooking. In addition, it does not absorb the smell of the product, so the mixing of flavors during cooking is excluded. Anti-bacteria protective coating that preserves the best qualities of the products.
The pressure cooker function is reflected in pressure cooking.In the range of 24 hours, you can set any desired time for cooking. The temperature range is from 30 degrees to 160. The lid has a valve for the release of steam, which is collected during operation. Pressurizing while cooking increases cooking speed and preserves vitamins. This is especially true for meat, which has to be stewed for a long time if cooked by hand.
In the multicooker mode, 30 programs are available. There are 14 of them with auto mode and 16 with manual mode. Programs for frying, baking, making jam, yogurt, dough and multi-cooking work without pressure. The rest of the programs are set to work under pressure. The fastest is cooking porridge (5 minutes under pressure), and the longest is cooking yogurt (it takes up to 8 hours).
The instructions indicate the minimum cooking values, based on their technology. Therefore, in reality, they can differ both up and down. You also need to lay some time for steam injection. For example, in pressure cook mode “chef”, the minimum time is 2 minutes.
The difference between this model is the manual setting of all multicooker modes that work without pressure. It doesn't matter if it's auto or manual. This is very convenient, as it expands the possibility of cooking any dishes in any temperature conditions and for different durations. This is especially true for those who trust their recipes more, but want to adapt them to the slow cooker.
The multicooker-pressure cooker also has a standard set of functions for a multicooker, such as keep warm, warm up, delayed start. This is the best invention for making breakfast. You wake up, and hot porridge is already waiting for you.
Despite the wide possibilities of the multi-cooker-pressure cooker for individual settings, the manufacturer put a book of 200 recipes in the box.
Unique opportunities include the preparation of homemade cheese and cottage cheese, pasteurization of products. Fondue can be prepared for a romantic evening. For a family with a small child, sterilize the bottles, and use the “preservation” function during the season of harvesting.
Definitely, buying a Marta multicooker will be a good choice. The presence of a wide range of programs, most of them can be adjusted independently. The combined model of the multicooker with a pressure cooker in the pressure cooker mode cooks at a very high speed. An indispensable assistant for housewives, and not only for housewives.
