Back in July at Foodstruments the OXO Large Salad Spinner was reviewed, which not only did a splendid job at spinning the dirt out of your greens, but it was easy to use with its one-handed pumping mechanism and preserved the fresh lettuce for a number of day. Besides offering up this salad spinner in small and large sizes, OXO also has the Good Grips Green Salad Spinner, which is effectively the same product but colored green.

Chopping garlic and managing to have your hands smell good afterwards is always quite the task. Moreover, trying to cut up those already small cloves into tiny pieces is even harder! Usually you get out that big chopper that you push down on it a lot all for that measly piece of garlic. Well, in reality, all you need is the Chef'n Garlic Zoom. With this small and compact tool, you can mince garlic up with ease and walk away with smelly-free hands.

Whether you are just slicing through the bone of a chicken or opening up dry ingredients, a good pair of kitchen shears is necessary for any kitchen. Many budget-conscious home chefs will use just a pair of normal scissors, but they are not as strong as most kitchen shears, which can mean they are not nearly as effective and in some circumstances even dangerous. If you are in that situation, perhaps you might want to try the Wüsthof Come-Apart Kitchen Shears, which are built very well as would be expected from the Wüsthof brand.

Have you ever wished for an easier way to poach eggs without putting them in direct contact with boiling water? Personally, I think the water takes away from the taste of the egg as do many others. To my pleasure, by using the Fusion Brands Poachpod, you can make healthy poached eggs without the blandness of an egg that has been poached directly in water. The Poachpods not only make a better poached egg, but it also makes cleaning up a breeze with its nonstick molding that is dishwasher safe.

I hate having to store all those measuring cups. I have dry measuring cups and liquid measuring cups, which ends up taking up a decent amount of room in my kitchen. I have always wanted a measuring utensil that would do it all. Well, even though this certainly is nothing new, there is a solution to my problems. The KitchenArt Adjust-A-Cup is perfect for both dry and liquid measuring.

Finding the perfect set of pots and pans for any individual can be very difficult. First, you must decide whether you prefer stainless steel or non-stick pans. This usually is not a hard decision to make since most people have a pretty strong opinion as to which they prefer. Calphalon is one of the manufacturers that have a wide variety of both stainless steel and non-stick pots and pans. For seeing how well Calphalon can make a stainless steel set, this review will be about the Simply Calphalon Stainless 8 Inch Omelette and 1 Quart Covered Sauce Pan. Though as the one sentence synopsis, this good quality set will last you a very long time.

I am always having trouble finding space to put just one more piece of storage-ware in my cupboard. Finding ways to save space in the kitchen can be difficult. It is hard to find good quality storage-ware that does not take up all of your cupboard space. Well, with this Pyrex Storage 6-Piece Round Set, Clear with Blue Lids, all of those troubles can be eliminated. The makers at Pyrex specially planned this piece to have the ability to insert each bowl into the next largest bowl to enable minimal storage space.

I am a big fan of steaming foods rather than cooking or baking. They taste just as good if not better since you are keeping all the flavors inside instead of baking or frying them out of the food. This is why I decided to check out the Nordic Ware Vegetable Steamer. This affordable steamer is easy to use and easy to clean. What more could you ask for? Oh, and it works really well too.

Are you sick and tired of buying shredded cheese that is very overpriced? Trying to find a grater that grates any kind of cheese is next to impossible. Mozzarella and Swiss cheese are a couple examples of soft cheeses where people have to buy them pre-shredded in order to have them shredded. Most graters only grate hard and semi-soft cheeses, and even those require a lot of work. However, with the Zyliss All Cheese Grater, it really does grate all cheeses.

Everyone's craze these days seems to be finding a good diet to lose weight. Simply exercising and eating healthier always helps. But who likes to prepare vegetables? Well, cutting up vegetables can be quite a hassle so everyone just skips to the easy, already packaged foods. Fortunately, you can start saving your money and cut up your own vegetables with ease with a Progressive Vegetable/French Fry Cutter. This is a healthy product -- assuming you do not use it to cut up potatoes to prepare a plate of French fries. Soon, you will have so much fun cutting up the vegetables; you will forget that you are actually preparing them to eat!
