The kitchen has long been the heart of the house, and at the same time, a place of technological innovation. We have come a long way from the kitchen of a fireplace, with the kitchens of today provides the power, technology and innovation at our finger tips. The kitchen is continuous development, from design and engineering of view from the house device is only amplified its role as a center of family relationship and human interaction.
Liberation through innovation
For centuriesEat more of a fire in a fireplace made of stone or brick was baked. The kitchen fire, and also shed light heats the room. In the early years of settlement in Canada, the kitchen was a multipurpose room, where the housewife not only prepared the meals, but heated water for washing, drying clothes on rainy days, and spun wool, among many other activities. More than any other part of the house the kitchen was the center of family life and the food made it necessaryFamily health and wellness. It 'was a tough job cooking in a kitchen fire - from lifting heavy iron pots beside the warm fire to the bush and stretching hundreds of apples to dry.
There was the joy of creating delicious dishes with seasonal produce and locally raised meat and wild garden. There was a satisfaction to know of how to preserve and store food during the winter and how to get the most out of limited supplies before the next harvest. Canada cooks quicklywere enterprising and economically. Nothing was wasted - even fat scraps from the kitchen, which, if made with lye from the ashes of the fire boiled extracts homemade soap. And the hostess was rarely alone in the kitchen: Anyone can be a member of the family cooking activities that use water in the well and included increasing the woodpile. By necessity, the kitchen was the hub of social home.
Over the last 150 years or so, women have welcomed newrescue work and cooking utensils, from the mid-19 th Century apple paring machine, non-stick pan. While these and other small appliances made life easier for chefs, some inventions transformed the kitchen and culinary traditions radically changed. The time saved also finally allowed women to spread their wings outside the home. The iron stove instead of a fire in 1850.
In 1920, gas and electric stoves were common. Today wesee induction hobs, a highly engaging and effective way of cooking that heats and cools quickly. Electric refrigerators began to be produced until 1925 in Canada, and the difficult economic times of the Depression slowed their adoption. It took a while 'for Canadian families to break the ice box to keep a regular supply of large blocks of ice to replace the cooling compartment is required. Home electrical refrigeration undoubtedly contributed, including the preservation of food. TodayRefrigerators are provided for the kitchen as a place of social gathering, to allow counter-current designs with depth for an additional space in the kitchen, and under-counter refrigerators, to bring the refreshments in the field, where you entertain people.
The 1930 starts in electric mixer. The most fundamental task of preparing the food - a mixture, stirring with a wooden spoon - could now be done with the machine. While in the past had kitchens as "living room" in which the owner has arranged pieceFurniture of their choice (free-standing sink, oven, refrigerator, table, wardrobe), the mid-1930 on kitchen design is always recovered the efficiency of all new equipment. Large household appliances were placed according to ergonomic principles and in line with a series of counters and cabinets. Take this concept of scientifically advanced and well-functioning, modern kitchen, which was formed in 1930 has begun, the ideal remains to this day.
A couple of new materials forTools (for example, easily shaped and colored plastic, heat-resistant silicone), new instruments (eg, steam dishwashers, blenders, food processors, microwave with built-in hoods) and new technologies (convection and induction) were included arsenal of cooking, but for the rest of the basics have not changed much. What we have seen, cooking utensils and design honed to such a peak efficiency is difficult to save even more time in this way, even if "smartHouses "offer tantalizing promise of the remote computer has established.
Elemental Connect-ion
For the biggest change in eating habits over the past ten years, you must look outside of the kitchen to store shelves as food, in which women (and men), now a selection of ready-prepared almost paralyzing, heat and may choose to serve food. Despite these developments on the markets to help families with their time challenged life, there was a corresponding loss of homeCooking skills, and Canadians are further separated from the original source of their food. If you can not wash away the mud that potato is less of a cooking task, but it is also difficult to see the connection between field and table names.
Many functions of a space, in rhythm with the agricultural cycle in the 19 Century, the Canadian Food in a place where families eat, you can not really prepare "cook". But despite this extraordinary development in the kitchenIt remains to be the central meeting place for the family. Food - its preparation and consumption - is not only a prerequisite for survival, but also a strong bond. It may not be necessary, as it was in previous generations, working so hard to produce a meal, but we still cook when we are in a position and we still want our food experiences to share with others - in a space efficient and friendly may be open to all.
We do not need in the kitchen (or fields)as much as our ancestors, but to interact with us for the base as a social being through cooking and eating. In the 21 century, we discover, it is important to know where they come from our food to make healthy choices to eat and pay attention to the unintended consequences of new technologies. Kitchens are obvious functional and efficient. It 'designer and manufacturer of products that the fundamental human need to respond with the production of foods that help usChart a course for the future culinary positive. This project is also in keeping the kitchen is the heart of the home to be successful.
