Pasta is fast becoming the go-to staple in Australian restaurants. The iconic Italian foodstuff has long been a favourite in the land Down Under, with Euromonitor stating that a staggering AU$438 million worth of it was sold on these shores in 2014. Furthermore, in a poll carried out by Good Food Australia, it was discovered that 61 per cent of Aussies had eaten some form of pasta within the last week.

It’s evident, then, that pasta should play a big part in a commercial kitchen’s menu, unless the restaurant specialises in a different niche. Australians are eating pasta, and lots of it, so it pays to be prepared. You can do just that by installing a quality pasta cooker in your kitchen, and at Moffat we have a range for you to choose from. First of all, let’s take a look at just how a pasta cooker can benefit your restaurant.
Faster pasta
With pasta as popular as it is in this country, it shouldn’t take you by surprised if you find yourself inundated with orders for it. To keep your customers both happy and their bellies full, you’re going to need a device that can turn over orders as quickly as possible. That’s just not possible on a commercial scale with a traditional pot and pan, but with a commercial pasta cooker, it’s a different story. This is because the commercial kitchen equipment uses gas heat or electric elements to boil water at lightning speed, with the ability to cook quality pasta to an optimum level each and every time.
Go Bold or go home
Moffat’s range of Waldorf commercial kitchen equipment and pasta cookers are exactly what you need. Blessed with power and a great productivity output, these streamlined models will fit seamlessly into any kitchen, regardless of space. Additionally, the Waldorf Bolds each come with an industry standard depth of 805 millimetres, so your kitchen will be able to cope with even the biggest of demands from Australia’s pasta lovers.
Pasta is soaring in popularity across Australia right now.
The Waldorf PC8140G, for example, comes with an integrated water fill and starch skimming water faucet, ready for instant action. This faucet can be finely adjusted to fill the cooker as required and, once the pasta has cooked, it can be drained through on the incorporated stand. Cleaning the 316-grade stainless steel open pan is simplicity itself, and comes complete with a 10-year warranty. What’s more, four stainless steel pasta baskets are supplied with the model, so you can get a continuous cook of pasta going on if demand goes through the roof!
