Perforated GN container Stalgast 122064

A perforated stainless steel container designed for even steam circulation in convection steam ovens. The small holes allow hot vapour to rise through the food, cooking it gently without drying or scorching. This method preserves moisture, colour and nutrients better than dry heat, making it suitable for vegetables, fish and delicate proteins.

The container is loaded with ingredients, placed on a shelf or rack inside the oven, and the steam programme is selected. As the oven fills with vapour, the perforations distribute heat uniformly around each piece, eliminating cold spots and reducing the need to turn or stir. Once the cycle finishes, the container is removed and the food transferred or served directly from it.

Constructed from stainless steel, the unit resists corrosion and staining from acidic or salty foods. Its flat base and straight sides allow multiple containers to stack securely, saving space in storage and during transport. The 65 mm depth provides enough room for a single layer of ingredients without overcrowding, which would slow cooking.

The temperature range of -40 to +300 °C means the container can move from freezer to oven without thermal shock, and the stainless steel is dishwasher-safe for quick turnaround between services.

The 325 × 265 mm footprint matches the GN1/2 gastronorm standard, so it fits most professional steam ovens, combi ovens and bain-maries that accept that size. The 3.5 L volume indicates the amount of food it can hold in a single layer, guiding portion planning for consistent results.

Cleaning involves rinsing under hot water to remove food debris, then placing in a dishwasher. The smooth stainless surface does not trap residue, and the perforations do not clog when food is scraped off promptly after use.
