Have you ever come across a kitchen gadget or utensil that you absolutely love and wish you had known about sooner? I find that the right tools in the kitchen make my job so much quicker and easier. So I decided it might be a good idea to share those items with you!
For instance, I recently purchased a Beater Blade for my KitchenAid mixer that doubles as a spatula so it virtually eliminates the need for scraping down the sides of the bowl! What an ingenious product and it works great!
These four utensils are everyday necessities for me. A quick squeeze allows me to get lemon juice directly into my measuring cup from this useful lemon juicer. (You can also use it for limes) For basting, I love my silicone basting brushes. They get the job done easily without losing fibers in my food and clean up is a snap. For cutting herbs, trimming vegetables, cutting pasta and a zillion other things I use these incredible Joyce Chen kitchen shears. I have had them for years and they still cut like they are brand new. For whisking sauces in smaller portions I love my little sauce whisk. It ensures that you reach every corner of your bowl or pot. (I have a larger one too!)
So, I have set up an Amazon.com aStore on my blog that you can link to and see these and other items I use everyday in my kitchen. I also have a category for some of my favorite cookbooks and personal care items. You can link directly to any of the items for a detailed description or to purchase, if you so desire. I plan to add items often, so be sure to check back regularly to see what new great new finds I have added!
You will find the link in the right column on my Welcome page. Take a peek and let me know if you have some other favorite items that you like to use in your kitchen. I’d love to hear about your fav’s too!
