A lot of us depend on various kitchen tools
and appliances every day. Whether you love cooking or not, these tools –
from a blender to measuring cups – are always great and useful and help
save time. Today, we will take a look at some unusual kitchen tools and
gadgets that you never knew you needed before. Not only will these
unique pieces of equipment make cooking and eating a lot more fun, but
they will also make your life in the kitchen a lot easier. From a toast
rack to an egg piercer, these fun, quirky, and useful tools should be a
part of every kitchen.
1. A citrus peeler for oranges, grapefruits, lemons, limes, and similar fruits.
2. This is a pumpkin carving scoop. The indent in the center is where you place your thumb to press
3. A corn stripper. Just place it on top of
the cob and with one twisting/pushing motion, you'll have fresh corn in
front of you to add to your meals
4. This is a holder for fruits and vegetables that are to be sliced on a mandoline food slicer
5. A bottle/jar opener that's been designed to fit all kinds of jar lid sizes
6. Have you ever seen this thing before? It’s a dish towel holder. Neat, huh?
7. An ice tapper. This classic bar tool is perfect for hand breaking ice before stirring a cocktail
8. This is a frozen food knife. It's built
to cut larger blocks of frozen vegetables and bread given its
versatility, strength, and heftiness
9. A super useful toast rack that can be used to serve up toast on a table with ease
10. This stainless steel fish scale remover makes scaling fish easy and
fast
11. Slicing and dicing onions don't just
make us leak tears, it can also leave a strong stench on our hands.
However, this aluminum bar, which is shaped like a bar of soap, can be
used to remove the onion smell (or of garlic) from your hands. When you
rub this object on your hands after cutting onions, the molecules in the
steel bind with the smelly sulfur smell on your hands, and thus the
molecules along with the smell are transferred to the metal and off from
your hands.
12. This is an egg piercer that helps keep eggs from cracking while boiling. Pretty helpful, right?
13. This is a crab cracker and is used to
crack the hard shells of crabs, lobsters, or any other edible
crustaceans. They are similar to a nutcracker in shape and purpose
