I'm no Martha Stewart, and sometimes when I go into the Home appliances section of a department store I get overwhelmed with immersion blenders, stand blenders, coffee percclators, drip coffee machines, single-serve coffee machines....you get the picture. Every once in a while, I get caught up with the gleaming, chrome, majesty of a kitchen appliance which could make my life so much simpler such as a mango corer or a Belgian waffle maker. Fortunately, my mother often gives me a dope-slap of reality and reminds me that kitchen space is a precious commodity. Besides, do you really need a pineapple corer? How many times do you eat pineapples anyway? (Beware of a circular answer eg: "Well I'd eat them more if I bought this corer..")
Learnvest created a great slideshow with popular kitchen gadgets that details the amount of times you'd have to use your gadget to have it pay for itself in cooking time-saved. Of course, certain appliances are necessary, such as a blender/food processor, and if your ancestors hail from the Asian continent--a rice cooker!
listen all you needs is a good radio a few pots and pans and some tap shoes and you can Make a wonderful dinner.

ReplyDeleteI think a new garlic peel should be invented that isn't so complicated and can peel/mince! Peeling and mincing garlic requires fine skills working with small cloves, while you can get away with coarser skills in other techniques such as dicing, slicing, etc..
