Weird and Wonderful Kitchen Gadgets
Weird and wonderful kitchen gadgets are a unique way to spice up your cooking and make life in the Kitchen easier. Whether you are trying to cook an entire roast or just slice an avocado you can add some flare with ease, just take a look here for some potentially weird and wonderful kitchen additions.
Egg Cuber
An Egg Cuber is a cube-shaped product that turns hard-boiled eggs into a unique dice shape. This device can be used to create chef salads or egg sandwiches, as well as a wide variety of other dishes. To be honest, it’s as useful as a chocolate teapot in reality; but its fun and unique and as well as being used for eggs, it can even be used for other things, like making ice cream or smoothies.
Microwave s’more maker
Bit of a sweet tooth, then why not try a Microwave S’Mores Maker?
We have found a great version online from Prep Solutions by Progressive which makes two S’Mores in 30 seconds. With a simple design, you just fill the reservoir with water, then add the chocolate and graham crackers ( In the UK, there’s no such thing as graham crackers. The closest thing we get is the digestive biscuit). Place in the microwave for about 30 seconds and watch as they melt.
The s’mores will come out slightly gooey, but not as crispy as those roasted over a campfire. S’mores are a huge thing in the US, however having tried these, I can vouch for their Yumminess and once hooked – you will keep going back for more!
Avocado slicer
An avocado slicer slices avocados without the need for any slicing motion. They usually come with a plastic blade for opening the avocado (these are not sharp to the touch and prevent the accidents that avocados are infamous for) and a scraper for removing the skin. This gadget is like a Swiss Army knife for avocado lovers and can be used in a variety of avocado recipes.
Aside from being convenient for slicing avocados, this tool can be used for a variety of fruits, such as mangoes and apples. The larger squares of the slicer help prevent food from getting stuck so it is nice and easy to keep clean too!
Towel-Matic Paper Towel Dispenser
The Towel-Matic Paper Towel Dispenser is a revolutionary automatic paper towel dispenser that works with any brand of home paper towels. It features an automatic sensor that ensures that the dispenser only gives out a single sheet or half-sheet every time. The dispenser uses four D-size batteries or an optional mains adaptor to operate. Towel-Matic is designed to sit on a table or wall so it easy to site in a perfect place for you.
Electric Corkscrew (RBT)
With the automatic electric corkscrew, you’ll never have to worry about manually removing the cork from your favourite bottles again. This device will automatically eject the cork from a bottle on contact with the cork, allowing you to enjoy the wine you’re drinking with no problem. Amazingly, this product can work well with both wood and plastic corks. This device can open up to thirty bottles on a single charge. Other features include a built-in foil cutter and a micro USB wall charger unit.
The ones from The Rabbit Company on Amazon are functional and affordable AND there are some great “sets” also (including Bottle Stops, Foil Cutters, Ice Buckets & even more).
Mandolin Slicer
A Mandolin Slicer slices a variety of foods while keeping your hands away from the blades. Most of these slicers have multiple options to fit your needs, including julienne, matchstick, and dicing with varying slice depths and widths. These have developed over the last decade to have safety features that are also impressive, no more grazed knuckles!
Pizza Boss Cutter
This pizza cutting gadget uses stainless steel blades and a non-stick nylon base to cut countless kinds of food. It’s heat-resistant up to 400 degrees and doesn’t scratch your countertop or pizza stone. It’s easy to operate and features spring-loaded handles for comfort and ease of use.
Its a quirky but seriously effective pizza cutter based on a circular saw, the Pizza Boss is built from tough, engineering-grade plastics and its laser-etched stainless steel blade makes light work of even the toughest crusts. Sure to put a smile on any pizza-lover’s face and this is a useful gadget for people who have hand strength issues.
Orblue’s dough whisks
The Orblue dough whisk is a modern kitchen accessory that makes mixing batters a breeze. Made of superior stainless steel and oak, it will not get rusty or break easily. Its extra-long handle is comfortable to hold and reduces hand strain. The wire loops in this blender/food processor slice through batters without adding extra gluten stretch.
Orblue’s Danish dough whisks come in a set of two and are lightweight, but durable enough to handle a variety of baking tasks. Its thick wires will help you to mix even the most difficult batters, and its smooth stainless steel handle will help you grip it comfortably. These dough whisks can even be washed in a dishwasher.
Pancake pen
Finally, if you have kids this is a great fun way to make pancakes. The pancake pen holds about 3 cups of pancake mix and once filled you can squirt pancakes letters and shapes into the pan. Suddenly pancakes are more fun!
