When it comes to the kitchen, I’m on board with savvy splurges. These are the tools that make your time in the kitchen a little easier, even when you didn’t realize the old tool was making things difficult. My list isn’t really about luxury. These are the tools I’ve found that are worth a little extra cost because they save me time and energy.
Splurge Kitchen Essentials
There are a lot of kitchen “essentials” that people splurge on to give their chef an upgrade. But, these are the three things that I absolutely adore in my kitchen that might not have made their way to yours, just yet.
Some things bring me joy every single time I use them. And, my Unicorn Pepper Mill is undoubtedly one of them. There’s no comparison. It simply showers pepper at every twist. Be warned that it sells out often, though. Once, it was out of stock for two years as they had to replace manufacturers for the bearings. So, if it is available, grab it FAST!
I heard rave reviews about Thermapen thermometers for years before finally giving in and buying one. Just, wow. Lightning fast (and accurate) temperature readings from any angle? Consider me a lifelong fan. If you’re looking for gift that will wow the cook in your life, you just found it.
It may not sound like much, but this Gourmet Easy garlic press is hands down the greatest garlic press I have ever used. This doesn’t just smash the garlic into paste. The press comes in two different sizes, and the larger one actually cuts it into teeny pieces. AND the BEST part? It’s just two pieces of stainless steel that click together and come apart for the easiest cleaning you can imagine. Definitely an upgrade from your run of the mill garlic press!
