Gadgets & Gizmos
Every person loves gadgets and gizmos when creating food fondue, whether they need to be in your kitchen is up to you. I personally love kitchen gadgets. Things that will make meal prep, presentation, and cleanup easier and faster. When we redid our kitchen with new cabinets, I literally was visualizing where all my small appliances would go. Rather than a pantry, I have a small appliance pantry that also holds my pots & pans. I wouldn’t have it any other way!
Some of my favorite gadgets include my garlic press – it keeps the mess to a minimum; food processor – making smoothies or homemade salsa, both are a winner here; my Crock Pot – check out my favorite Chicken Recipes on how easy it is to use; Chopper – best to use when feeling extra stress; and then my collection of spice blends. You may not think of spices as a gadget or gizmo, but when it comes to having fun with flavors in cooking, there are no better than spices. Last but certainly not least, my wine bottle opener – Houdini. He may be manual labor, but I love how he wants to please me first. By always opening the bottle, removing the cork without leaving a trace and then relinquishing the cork for my collection barrel.
I also love gadgets that make outdoor cooking more enjoyable and easier. Just today I saw an outdoor pantry that can hold not just my grilling tools, but additional spices, tinfoil, even dishes! Now for that outdoor wine cooler, I have the fine wines already delivering to my door. I am looking forward to bringing you these ideas. So you can have just as much fun as me when it comes to cooking for your family.
