Is cooking your thing?  If it is are you using these nifty gadgets?

In this day and age, forks and knives don’t cut it anymore (pun unintended). It’s 2012! There are so many cool kitchen gadgets that make our lives a little easier in the kitchen.

  1. Food Scale: “A kitchen essential, this innovative digital scale is packed with user-friendly features. The display panel pulls away from the base, making it easy to check readings when your container overhangs the platform. As you add ingredients, just press a button to reset the scale and view the updated reading.” Read reviews.
  2. Chef Stand + Stylus: “Made especially for use in the kitchen, the Chef Stand + Stylus gives you the freedom to interact with your tablet while you cook—without worrying about touching your device with messy hands. The case-compatible stand has a non-slip rubber base and two different angles that are ideal for countertop use.” Read Features
  3. Pull’n Slice Mandoline: “This innovative mandoline has a revolutionary design for safe slicing. Place your fruits and vegetables in the safety hood, brace with the hand guard, then slide the plane back and forth for perfectly precise slices.” Watch Video.
  4. Fresh Air Compost Collector: “Say goodbye to smells and fruit flies with the odor-resistant Fresh Air Compost Collector. Its unique “wind flumes” allow air to flow through the compost, reducing the smell by facilitating aerobic breakdown. This means that food decomposes more slowly and stays drier during the composting process. No mess either with compostable bags!” Read Reviews.
  5. Digital Scale & Measuring Cups: “Professional chefs and bakers will tell you that measuring ingredients by weight is more precise and reliable than measuring by volume. Taking the guesswork out of measuring liquid or dry ingredients for American or international recipes, this precision tool is a kitchen scale and measuring cup in one.” Read Reviews.
  6. Corn Stripper: “Make the most of summer’s fresh corn with this mouse-shaped tool. The stainless-steel notched blade strips the sweet kernels off cobs in record time, trapping them in a container that empties through a hole in the top.” Read Reviews.
  7. OCD Cutting Board: “When cooking, do you get frustrated trying to measure out a precise “dash” or “pinch” of an ingredient? Are you not satisfied until you’re sure your celery has been “minced”, rather than just “diced”? Well, it’s time to let your inner obsessive loose in the kitchen, with this precision cutting board. The durable, beechwood board is clearly printed with absurdly detailed measurement markings, allowing you to chop perfectly square roots or calculate a slice of “pi” with absolute precision.” Read Reviews.
