Okay, so if I spent this much on a toaster, my bank would call me to check for fraud, but since I’ve discovered the Balmuda steam toaster my toast has started to taste like plywood.
This Tokyo-based tech company specialises in perfecting kitchen gadgets, and it’s gone to town on the humble toaster.
Balmuda says its oven uses: “steam technology and precise temperature control to bring out the best in very kind of bread”.
I apologise now to all past bread for failing to help you reach your fullest potential.
Anyway, the oven turns five millilitres of water into steam, and wafts it over the bread in three controlled temperature phases.
