You should try to build a chamber that sprays liquid nitrogen or other cryogenic liquids at the food.
Idk, good luck.
What I would like to know is if we will ever have microwaves that stop the spinning plate in the same place that they started. It's XXI century, I want to take out my cup as easily as I've put it in.
There is a drink chiller that chills drinks in about a minute. You could use the same idea for other things.
The Chill-O-Matic is smaller, cheaper and probably easier to clean as it doesn't seem to have tubing.
The design of that machine in your link is a lot of overkill for something simple.
This was a b plot on the Bam Margera movie haggard.

In beer brewing there's a point where you want to cool your beer down as quickly as possible.
A chiller is dropped into the just cooked wort. (wort is the beer before fermentation).
It goes from steaming hot to room temperature very quickly.
It's just a spiral pipe that you run cold water through.
Sounds like you need something like that for a potato.
some kinds of fire extinguisher could accomplish this. bit expensive though.
It occurs to me that you could get some really high-speed cooling with liquid nitrogen (or dry ice and alcohol) but the reality of working with cryogenic fluids is that they're pretty dangerous so I don't think anyone would do that. Unlike a microwave where the dangerous part (the waves) is all self-contained and turns off the instant you open the door.
