The Miele Dialog Oven was first released as a unique cooking appliance that offered more precise oven or microwave cooking, and now Miele is launching the Dialog Oven meal kits. The meal kit is the closest approximation of what the service will actually be as they're actually fully pre-plated dishes. These recipes, and plating options come from a start-up called MChef which aims to offer on-demand gourmet dining.
Up to six MChef meal kits can be cooked in the Dialog Oven at once, ensure users will not stand around waiting to heat each meal individually. Cooking the Dialog Oven Meal kits incredibly simple as all settings can be transmitted to the oven through the MChef app.
