The salamander is a useful little kitchen tool, ideal for grilling, toasting or browning food. It can also be used to keep cooked food warm and give it a final touch before serving it to the customer.
The main component of any type of salamander is an electrical heating element that emits continuous heat to the dishes and food that are placed on the bottom to allow them to be kept at the desired temperature.
In the independent cooking range of our catalogue, we offer commercial electric ultra-rapid salamanders equipped with special electric heating elements with tungsten filaments. It is a state-of-the-art technology that we incorporate into our units in order to offer the best to our customers and to professionals in the hospitality, confectionery and similar sectors.
Thanks to this type of heating element, Fagor's professional ultra-rapid electric salamanders are ready for full use in 20 seconds. Another of the great innovations of these models is their cooking time display control panel, which can be set from 5 seconds to 99 minutes, giving you a time margin depending on the food you wish to cook.
These salamander models offer the possibility of working in continuous cycle, allowing you to be much more effective in your work and get more performance out of your kitchen appliance.
Commercial ultra-rapid electric salamanders have a height-adjustable roof, which is where the heat source is located. This allows you to regulate and adjust the distance between the heat source and the dish or food under it, thus controlling the intensity of the heat that is emitted to the various foods.
It is a very useful tool for many establishments that offer some type of food or pastries, such as restaurants, pintxo bars, snack bars, pizzerias, pastry shops and fast food establishments.
Professional ultra-rapid electric salamanders facilitate the work of any hospitality professional and make any business more profitable. Moreover, it is a kitchen tool that doesn't take up too much space and is very versatile and easy to use in any professional's day-to-day work.

Normally when we hear the name salamander, the first thing we think of is the animal of the same name. And it is certainly from this animal, which was believed to be immune to fire according to mythology, that the name of this kitchen appliance comes from.
The salamander as it is known today was already in use in the 18th century, but back then it referred to a metal dish that was operated with a long handle and rested on the food on the fire to brown it from above or to keep it warm. Since then, it has evolved into the practical kitchen tool it is today.
