Gadgets: The Cook-Zen Microwave Pot
A gadget for microwave cooking? Color me skeptical. But that's exactly what the Cook-Zen Microwave Pot is all about. It's surprisingly amazing—and not just for the college student. The Cook-Zen pot has allowed me to become lazier, more ambitious, and somewhat healthier all in one fell swoop. Sound impossible? Believe it.Gadgets: Top 5 Favorites From a Year of Reviews
It's been just over a year since Gadgets became a regular feature here at Serious Eats, so I thought it was about time I looked back and picked some surprise favorites. Below, my top five finalists from a list of fifty-two, to give you an idea of which ones have risen to the top of a gadget-filled kitchen.Gadgets: Sur La Table's Oil Mister
Cooking healthier is just one advantage to having an oil mister—for me, equal draws came in the shape of small-batch infusions and hopefully, less money spent on expensive oil over the course of the year. Sur La Table's budget version is cute enough to leave on the table, but that doesn't necessarily mean I've been using it as much as I've been looking at it.Gadgets: Vinturi Essential Wine Aerator
It seemed like a good indication that, when I bought my Vinturi Essential Wine Aerator a few weeks ago, the man at the checkout counter started a long-winded rave about the product. But I figured the proof would be in the pudding (and by pudding, obviously I mean my wine-filled belly).Gadgets: The Beater Blade
Stand mixers make life easier in all too many ways, but I can't stand it when recipes ask you to scrape down the side of their bowls. I'm too impatient to stop and scrape, but afraid to get my spatula or spoon in the way of the whisk attachment or angering the machine somehow. It's a minor crisis, but the Beater Blade helps.Gadgets: Scoop Colander by Joseph Joseph
Oh, Joseph Joseph. I love your products. Really, I do. You have a way with design and function that drives me crazy in the best of ways, and you've never, ever failed me before. But that spoon scoop colander has just got to go.Gadgets: Utensil Pot Clip by Trudeau
As we've seen in Gadgets before, sometimes the smallest (and cheapest) kitchen accessories are the most useful. So is the case with this little guy, the Utensil Pot Clip, whom I picked up recently for a fiver at Sur La Table.Gadgets: Brownie Cup Pan by Wilton
Given that it's currently for sale for less than $10 at Sur La Table, I thought that the Wilton Brownie Cup Pan may finally be worth adding to my collection. It's certainly not a necessity in any pantry, but the brownie cup pan is a fun little toy—albeit one that doesn't perform nearly as well as something so specialized should.This Week in America's Test Kitchen: Electric Corkscrews
It sounds like something that Q would give James Bond: Press a button, and presto, the wine uncorks. But are electric wine openers really handy or just another gimmicky gadget? America's Test Kitchen finds out.Hot Topics: Technique of the Week | The Food Lab
