In My Kitchen Gadgets

The old saying "one man's junk is another's treasure" also holds true in the kitchen. If you don't process strawberries anymore, someone else could make great use of that strawberry huller - leaving room in the drawer, for the gadget you've always wanted!

I've come up with a game that would add great fun to an annual cookie exchange or a wedding shower. Follow the rules below, and have fun with it.

What's the risk? Nothing! Since you didn't want your gadget anyway - you've nothing to lose. What's to gain? One you do like or have need of. There is no cost to play, nothing to buy.

There should be no consideration of the value of your gadget, since an item of no use to you, is valued at zero! Actually, ugly, partially worn gadgets just add more fun to the game.

Each guest brings a (non-electric) kitchen gadget they do not want or use, for whatever reason.

On arrival, each person adds their name to a 'drawing' basket. Have small papers and pens ready for this purpose.
Gadgets are placed on display, amid remarks like: 'What's that?', or "I want one of those!".

Top 5 Things You Need in Your Kitchen

If you are just starting to cook, or are moving in on your own, chances are, you don't have much in terms of cooking equipment. Here is what we recommend for you to get, as you are starting out. As times goes by, you will, of course, get more kitchen gadgets. But here are five that we recommend starting out with:

- Chopping board. This is something very basic, as you can't chop anything without having a chopping board. Some people prefer to get separate chopping boards to meat, dairy items, vegetables, etc. Others get differently sized chopping boards, and use them depending on the volume of things they need to chop.

- A knife. Again, this is very basic, but you will not be able to chop or cook anything without a knife. A good, sharp knife goes a long way to help you prepare food. You can go to some stores, and hold the knives in your hand, so that you know which one you are comfortable with.

- A big pot. You need a pot for pretty much anything - from boiling pastas to making soups to stewing to pretty much anything else. Some pots come with colander inserts, which makes it easier to cook pasta. Or, you may get a colander separately, and use that.

- A saute pan. We love saute pans, and use them all the time. Again, they are very versatile, and we recommend getting ones without wooden handles, so that you can put the saute in the oven as well. Use the saute pan for preparing stir fries, sauteing meat and fish, cooking vegetables and much, much more.

- Roasting Pan. These are perfect for preparing things in the oven. From roast to roasted chicken to roasted vegetables, a roasted pan can help you cook your favorite dishes in the oven.

Cooking - The Gadgets

I love kitchen gadgets, not only do they speed up the cooking process, but they extend one's ability to cook certain dishes.

Food Processor - I consider this to be a must have because it can do so many tasks. It will slice, grate, chop, mince and mix. It cuts the time by about ten times for making pastry or mixing dough and you can't beat it if you have a large quantity of onions to chop or carrots to slice. Whipping egg whites or cream becomes the work of seconds.

Mixer/Beater. Because you need to be very, very careful when using a food processor to mash potato or make a cake mix, a hand-held electric beater is a useful tool to have. A food processor just works too quickly, if you're not careful and you can end up with a dreadful gluey mess, so get a beater as well - they're very inexpensive.

Coffee Grinder. Whether you actually want to grind coffee beans is immaterial here. A coffee grinder is amazing for grinding whole spices. It means goodbye to the effort of using a pestle and mortar and you have a home made spice mix in minutes. Makes for interesting-tasting coffee, if you do use it for beans as well!

Pasta Maker. This is actually a bit of a misnomer as a pasta maker doesn't actually make pasta, but it does roll it really thinly and cut it into spaghetti or tagliatelli. You may also need a drying rack, if you intend to keep your home-made pasta for any length of time.

Bread Maker. This does do as the name suggests with no more effort than it takes to throw the ingredients into the pan of the bread maker and switch it on for delicious home-baked bread. In addition, it will make fantastic dough, all kneaded and risen, for you to turn into rolls, plaits, pita bread or pizza bases and bake in the oven yourself.

Blow Torch. A great tool if you like to make flat bread in a frying pan or want to give that just-grilled look to anything at all. Fantastic for crème brulée.Of course you can go further than this, if you have the space in your kitchen to store rice makers or electric steamers, electric pizza makers and many other things too numerous to mention.

10 Great Kitchen Gadgets for Healthy Cooking By: Erin Rogers

Being prepared can often mean the difference between being able to whip up a simple, healthy meal or resorting to fast food or the delivery man. The desire to eat healthy food makes quick preparation a bit more difficult than simply boiling up some macaroni and cheese with hotdogs and frozen peas. But, with a little planning, you can make it much easier to quickly prepare a delicious and nutritious meal.

Here are some of my favorite gadgets for quick and healthy cooking:

1. Small and large nonstick skillets (you'll use nearly every day)

2. Several different sizes of glass measuring cups (for quick and easy measuring)

3. Sharp knives (a godsend!)

4. Blender (great for whipping up sauces, dressings and smoothies)

5. Food processor (also great for shredding, and making sauces, dressings)

6. Steamer basket (super-quick and healthy vegetable preparation)

7. Pasta pot with drainer lid (make pasta with less dishes)

8. More than one cutting board (so you don't have to wash between chopping meat and veggies)

9. Gas or charcoal grill (many healthy grill recipes)

10. Large ziploc bags for marinating (quick prep and quicker cleanup!)

If you' have great tools to work with, cooking becomes easier and even fun! So, invest in some quality equipment and the use it to create great healthy dishes in a flash.

Features drive kitchen gadget evolution by Mike Duff

The trouble with the gadget business today is that you always have to do yourself one better. Manufacturers and retailers are trying to do that with products that are easier to use, easier to employ-a different consideration-and more stylish looking.

All that has to be accomplished with an eye on price. Kitchen gadgets was among the first categories Wal-Mart revised in its efforts over the past couple of years to remerchandise its home assortment.
