Stew in the autoclave vs store-bought
What is the difference between store-bought and homemade stew? To answer this question, we conducted a blind test: two plates of stew — one from the store, the other prepared in a UTEHO autoclave. And the results turned out to be more than revealing.
Tasting results

What is the main difference?
- Store-bought: meat, fat, stabilizers, flavorings, preservatives.
- Homemade: meat, spices, salt. Only natural ingredients, no chemicals.
- Store-bought: dense with a thick layer of fat, dry and fibrous meat.
- Homemade: juicy meat that separates easily and melts in the mouth.
- Store-bought: sharp, with notes of chemical additives.
- Homemade: natural aroma of meat and spices from homemade cooking.
- Store-bought: pinkish meat shade, thick layer of fat on top.
- Homemade: rich meaty color, less fat, and it looks appetizing.

Why choose homemade stew?
- Meat quality is under your control. You choose what meat to use: pork, beef, chicken, or even game.
- No surprises in the ingredients. Homemade stew contains no “extra” components — only meat, spices, and salt.
- Savings. The price of homemade stew is always lower than that of store-bought jars, especially if you buy meat in bulk or raise animals yourself.
- Versatility. Homemade stew is great for a quick dinner, camping, or as a strategic pantry reserve.
- Taste of childhood. Many will recall how jars of homemade stew always stood in grandma’s cellar — a taste no factory product can beat.

Homemade stew won the blind test
Homemade stew from the UTEHO autoclave wins in every category: it's tastier, healthier, and safer. It’s real meat you can cook yourself and be confident in its quality.
The autoclave allows you to make preserves that match factory ones in shelf life but far exceed them in taste and nutritional value. Making stew at home is simple, cost-effective, and very delicious.
