Kitchen Gadgets That Make Life Easier

Pasta Cooker

Timing is everything when it comes to making pasta dishes, and an experienced cook knows that she has to have enough time to prep, wait for the water to boil, and get the sauce prepared. But what if you could cut the pasta-making time down considerably, leave your stovetop clean, and even let the kiddos handle making a simple meal? The Lekue Pasta Cooker is a specially designed container that is meant to be used in the microwave, cooking and steaming food that can be served in minutes. The Pasta Cooker has a special lid that prevents bubbling over, something most microwave pasta cookers don’t account for, and a built-in strainer.

Herb Cutter

Being able to cut, mince, and chop herbs quickly is something that a lot of home chefs struggle with because it's time-consuming to do correctly. The Zyliss FastCut Herb Tool is designed to get the job done with just a few swift strokes, no matter what amount of herbs you are trying to cut. The blades are sharp, so use caution, but they need to be to slice through a stack of fresh herbs.

How to Cook Corn on the Cob Instant Pot

Corn Stripper

Fresh corn is one of the best harvest veggies to add to the menu, and there are so many ways to prepare it. One of the most tedious chores though is shucking ear after ear of corn to use in any of your dishes. It's difficult, it's messy, and it takes up a lot of time. This RSVP Shuck Deluxe Corn Stripper kitchen tool is designed to keep the mess contained and is easy enough for older kids to safely use.  This cooking gadget will save you both time and mess. This is one tool I wish I had learned about a lot sooner.

Fat Separator

Making your gravy or sauce takes your cooking up a notch, but there is a reason why so many home chefs buy the stuff canned– it takes a lot of patience to make and is tricky to get just right. One of the biggest problems with making stock involves separating the fat released during the cooking process from the stock itself. The OXO Good Grips 4-Cup Fat Separator is designed so that once the fat rises to the top of the tool, the gravy can be poured out without worrying about the two mixing again. The fitted strainer at the top of the cup is a useful bonus, and missing from most other separators. It allows you to fill this kitchen gadget with the top on, removing any large pieces of debris.

DIY Father’s Day Tie Herb Pot

Dicer and Chopper

I love dicing up veggies and adding them to as many dishes as possible, but the time it takes to slice and dice is almost as long as some dishes take to cook and serve. With the Progressive International Dice and Pop Chopper, you can have veggies diced with a single move. Your veggies pop out into the measured holder for convenience.

Mandoline

Mandoline slicers have been around for a while, but there are so many kitchens out there without one…or at least a decent one. Because of how you use a mandoline to quickly slice all types of vegetables, you need one that is stable, easy to handle, and has a good blade that will not bend or dull. The Gramercy Stainless Mandoline Slicer offers all of these things and more. It has several interchangeable blades so that you have different ways to slice up your veggies and even has an easy-to-use grip system so that you can slice right over a bowl for quick plating. This kit even comes with safety gloves to keep your fingers from being cut.
