Kitchen Accessories
We’ve managed to kick the gadget habit and pare down our kitchenware to the essentials well, the essential tools plus a few extras that we feel add enough value to keep around.
FOOD PROCESSOR: They are awesome gadgets for making pates and dips, and mixing smooth and creamy deli-style tuna fish. They are an essential kitchen tool that will save you loads of time, and once you start using it, you will discover more and more uses for saving time in your cooking.
SLOW COOKER: It is a slow cooker, also known as a crockpot. Aside from the energy savings from using a slow cooker versus the oven to cook a roast, this little beauty is a great way to use up leftover meats and vegetables.
RICE COOKER: Rice is a staple of any frugal cook’s pantry, and it is probably used often. This gizmo is the best and most energy efficient way to cook your rice – whether white or (my preference) brown – to absolute perfection every single time.
JUICER: Not only are juicers a great tool for squeezing lemon, lime and orange juice when called for in recipes, the’ye able to juice vegetables as well.
BLENDER: This handy gadget will provide you with a multitude of uses from making smoothies and blended cocktails to your own sorbet from frozen fruits and juice.
FOUR-SIDED STAINLESS STEEL GRATER: A good grater is not only a great time saving gadget for quickly grating cheese (and grating your own cheese is far superior in taste to buying store-grated cheese), you will find it handy in grating raw vegetables of all types, from carrots to radishes, potatoes, and much more.
AIRTIGHT FOOD STORAGE CONTAINERS: They will save you both time and money in the kitchen, because you can neatly store your rice, pasta, dry baking ingredients, and snacks, and even organize your spice packets and meal mixes.
