What are your favourite and best kitchen gadgets?

[TyneTeas]

Frankly I have no need for yet another thing for the kitchen but the excitement of my recently purchased universal knife block and oil separating scoop has worn off and I am feeling a bit shoppy

What do I want...?

My jar key is my happiest kitchen gadget. A small thing but a game changer in my life.

Oooh, I did fall out with a jar of gherkins earlier today, so is on the list!

Red wine aerator/pourer (one of the ones that you stick into the neck of the bottle and it aerates the wine as you pour.)

Made me think of this cartoon from probably the eighties : )

Sous vide, Ninja 4537668932-in-one and Philips pasta maker.

We have a holder for all the big spoons/ ladles etc. was 4euro in ikea and still adore it years later! Also cheese grater with handle (also ikea!)

By grater with handle do you mean a little barrel whirly one that is like old bus ticket machines or a box grater with a handle on top?

Apple corer

Oh! I did not know there were pasta making machines. Hello!!

I am not sure what I would cook sous vide but I will add it to my list of things to research!

I already have an air fryer and an electric pressure cooker and stuff, so as versatile as the Ninja is I don't think it would do anything different (although would likely liberate a lot of bench and cupboard space!)

Ninja little electric chopper. So handy and also functions as a decent blender when I can’t be arsed with the proper food processor.

I think I may already have one and am now wondering why I don't use it when making crumble.

I must have a sort through the utensil draw

Coffee bean grinder.

Have loads of big gadgets but my apple corer/slicer is the most used

TyneTeas The exact one!

Ooh yes, this! I have the cuisinart grinder, it comes with two little cups with blades, you can dedicate one to coffee and keep the other for nuts, breadcrumbs etc

I have a wand blendy stick for when I can't be bothered with big one, but if it chops and goes in the dishwasher it is going on the list!

I don't drink coffee but if I did I would definitely want one!

Pasta maker is amazing - ingredients (which it weighs for you) to fresh pasta, in all shapes and sizes in 3 minutes!!! To be fair I prefer making 'proper' handmade but a bunion op made standing for an hour kneading and rolling untenable.

Sous vide is also a game changer - vac pack the toughest bit of cheap meat, stick it in at 60c for 24 hours and it comes out melting.

Bean to cup coffee maker and ninja foodie max. Use them both every day.

Morphy Richards soup maker.
I make fresh soup about 3/4 times a week. Its brilliant.

I am so tempted by a pasta maker. We were just talking the other night about liking the idea fresh pasta but not the actual effort

I often make soup too but just use a pan and the wand blendy thing if it needs blending.

What are the advantages of a soup maker please?
