Cooking meals and making snacks can be a fun experience. It can be a way to connect to your loved ones or relive memories of cooking with your family members. However, it can be a stressful or hurried task after a long day or when you are in a hurry. The good news is that there are brilliant kitchen gadgets you can nab that will help simplify your cooking tasks. As Anthony Bourdain famously said,” Good food is very often, even most often, simple food.” Check out our curated list below to make your life in the kitchen easier and help you stick to the basics.
Taking Things Slow
What could be better than an aromatic and savoury dinner that you don’t have to oversee the cooking of? Imagine only having to add your ingredients into a pot and have the free time to spend with your family and friends or get some other chores done while it cooks. You won’t have to imagine it for long if you grab yourself a slow cooker.
Stop Waiting for the Water to Boil
Gone are the days of waiting for the water to heat if you want to have some hard-boiled eggs. With an electric egg cooker, you can also take the guesswork out of trying to figure out when the eggs are done.
A Healthier Fry
Grill, bake, steam, roast, or fry your food with just a press of a button with an air fryer. It allows you to cook quickly, with 75% less fat; all you need is a tablespoon of oil. They also come in handy when preparing multiple things that need to be cooked at different temperatures. The recipes available for air fryers are endless and effortless, so what are you waiting for?
Easier Toasties
Sure, you can grill your toastie in a pan, but what if you didn’t have to sit and wait at the stovetop for it to be done or for when it is ready to be flipped? A sandwich maker will ensure that your toastee is golden and delicious every time; all you have to do is place it in the tray.
Stop Fussing With That Lid
Let’s face it, for some of us, there is a lot of time spent in the kitchen just trying to get the lid off the jar we are trying to use. Admit it, you have forgone an ingredient before because you couldn’t open the jar; we know we have! Jar openers will simply get the lid off those jars without you having to tell the person who opens the jar that you ‘loosened it for them’.
Get All Your Steaming Done At Once
A multi-teared food steamer is perfect for simultaneously steaming all the elements of a healthy meal. Shrimp, veggies, and rice? No problem. Even if all aspects of your meal need to be steamed for different durations, these steamers can do it all.
