The room in a home that sees the most traffic throughout a typical day is the kitchen. Even during parties, guests congregate where food and drink are readily available.
It's one reason the kitchen is also the room in a home that sees the most investment. Americans collectively spend billions of dollars on kitchen goods each year.
A functional kitchen is nothing without purpose-built gadgets that take up minimal counter or drawer space. Here are the seven best options available in 2024.
The butter knife game levels up. The utensil's ergonomic design allows for easy cutting and spreading of cold butter without shredding bread. One side creates decorative curls.
The original gadget that began the one-pot craze is still unequaled. Prepare rice, slow/pressure cook, saute, make yogurt, warm or sterilize in one small appliance.
Start a party anywhere with this portable, sturdy raclette. It quickly melts cheese to pour over potatoes, burgers, etc. It can also make impulse fondue for one.
The days of accidental grease burns or spatters on a range top are over. This BPA-free fry cone can withstand temperatures of up to 450 F and will fit any pan with a diameter over 10 inches.
Effortlessly grind coarse salt and peppercorns with this handsome set of two battery-powered mills. They also feature LEDs for dimly lit dining.
The bad news is forearms will no longer get a workout mixing batter. The great news is crepes, muffins and more are just a few shakes away with this dishwasher-safe mixer/dispenser
Brown guacamole, while perfectly safe, can be unappetizing and often remains uneaten. This container snaps closed. Air is forced out by pushing the bottom up which keeps guac green and fresh looking.
All of these nifty gadgets can be found for purchase on Amazon. Every item costs less than $70.00 not including taxes and shipping.
Work smarter not harder with the best kitchen gadgets for 2024.
