Things You Can Do With An Egg Slicer

January 6, 2017

Making precise slices of softer, smaller foods in a snap, literally, with this tool designed to hold slippery, hard-cooked eggs in its cradle as the wires cut through. Cleanup is just as speedy – use a kitchen brush and warm, soapy water.

It can quick slice soft fruits and vegetables such as peeled kiwis, hulled strawberries, white or cremini mushrooms, and pitted olives.

Create perfect rounds from soft cheeses, like fresh mozzarella balls and goat cheese.

Make even pats from a stick of butter.

Be creative and try using an egg slicer on soft foods that you’re preparing. The possibilities are endless.

Creative Kitchen Laboratory

September 10, 2016

Lately I’ve been working in my kitchen as if it were a creative kitchen laboratory. The kitchen is really a food laboratory isn’t it? I’ve begun to add more science-like tools to my collection of cooking equipment. This week I purchased a bunch of beakers in various sizes. I use them as measuring cups as well as a place to hold liquids and chopped things. I’m not certain exactly why this makes me so joyous, but it does.

Kitchen Equipment

Great tools make for better food and a more pleasurable cooking experience, which tends to make you want to cook more often. This is a good foundation for good cooking and eating. Throw out the junk that clutters your kitchen drawers and cabinets, and invest in good quality knives, measuring cups, pans, and cutting boards. As your skills and interests progress, add more specialized tools, such as a a mandolin, a microplane grater, and a kitchen scale.
