Six Great Kitchen Gadgets

Today time is more valuable than anything else is. Personally talking, kitchen is one place where I do not believe you should spend too much time of the day. Eating good, healthy and hygienic food requires your kitchen to be equipped with gadgets that make your task simpler and more efficient.

Since childhood, I observed my mother doing so many tasks at the same time in the kitchen. This is true for 90% percent moms. I have collected a list of SIX great kitchen gadgets that will assist moms with multitasking and make their lives a bit easier.

1) Wrap Master

I can make sandwiches but having to wrap them perfectly with a cling is near to impossible. I dclip_image002o not remember doing this task even once without cursing or hurting my finger on a row of miniature teeth. The Wrap Master makes it convenient for you to roll out a precise, flat piece of cling or aluminum foil with guillotine action. Now it is easier to roll out a strip and place your food item on it before cutting to length. The Wrap Master comes in a plastic unit that has rubber feet to stick to the counter of the kitchen. I have tried it in my kitchen and trust me; my life has become so much trouble-free.

2) Twist Assist

Opening a jar is cumbersome task, which at times requires you to adopt unwanted measures including having to place the jar in hot water or banging it against clip_image004the cabinet wall. A Twist Assist Jar Opener is a sigh of relief. Now you do not need to panic if there is no strong man at home to open the stiff jar of fruit cocktail. The Twist Assist has a suction cup on the bottom, which attaches itself to the cap of the jar. Lock the handle into position and pull the leverage to open the tops on any can. Irrespective of how stubborn the top is, you can remove it without spoiling your mood. Similarly, all sturdy plastic seals can also be placed off with Twist Assist.

3) SmartShopper

This is an interesting kitchen gadget, which uses the latest voice recognition technology. Every time any of your grocery items are out of stock, press a button and say the name of the item you require next time you go shopping. The device features a large LCD screen, which displays the name of items that have been input into the unit. Next time when you plan to go for shopping, use the built-in thermal printer to print out the list and carry it with you to the mart. So next time you do your grocery, you don’t have to come back home and say “I knew I was forgetting something”!

4) Vipp “Yellow Cab”

The Vipp 24 Pedal Bin is made of stainless steel and rubber and has a capacity of 8-gallon. Although, this bin is costly but if you are a hygiene freak like me and prefer not having to bend down to open the lid of the waste basket especially when your hands are full, consider buying this Yellow Cab Pedal Bin by Vipp. Hide your trash with style!

Its time for your husband to come back home and you have planned a surprise dinner for him. You want to keep the surprise until your dish goes to the table. What to do about the aroma that spreads around the kitchen place and all the way into the rest of the house? Get odor-absorbing screens from Lifetime Brands, which help to reduce unwanted aromas. These screens are packed between two layers of stainless steel mesh, which work like a carbon filter and absorbs pungent aroma from the pan as you cook up foods like onions, garlic and fish. Use these Odor-Absorbing Screens to avoid using scented sprays in the home environment.

The precision spoon scale is a gadget for baking. It aids you to scoop out the precise amount of ingredients. The spoon is fitted with a LCD display screen on the handle, which displays the exact weight. Now there is little chance of the cake going wrong. What say?

For me, as a work-at-home mom, all these kitchen gadgets have done wonders by saving so much time, and gone are the days when I used to spend hours in the kitchen!:)
