Top Four Kitchen Gadgets You Didn’t Know You Couldn’t Live Without

With so many kitchen gadgets on the market now knowing exactly which ones you will need, and which ones you will actually use can be overwhelming. As a person who loves to cook, and loves to try new products I can not even begin to tell you how many new kitchen gadgets I have bought that I will never even use, but there are some items that I have bought, thinking that I would never use them and have found out that I couldn’t live without them. Here is my list of the top four kitchen gadgets that you never even knew you couldn’t live without until you have them.

Apple Wedger

My son discovered the Apple Wedger at a friend’s house, and begged me to purchase one for our house. I was not sure if I would ever use it but I purchased it any ways, and have found it to be one of the greatest kitchen gadgets I have bought in a very long time. The Apple Wedger cores your apple, and cuts it into perfect wedges in just a matter of a few quick seconds. I have seen Apple Wedgers everywhere from the Dollar Tree, to Wal-Mart, to Pampered Chef, with the quality of Apple Wedgers ranging from place to place. Depending on where you purchase the Apple Wedger it can range in price from $1 to $13. The Pampered Chef Apple Wedger, which can be seen on their website, is $11.50, and is made of stainless steel blades.

Citrus Peeler

The Citrus Peeler is something that my mom had in her kitchen growing up, and as I grew older that I forgot about. It wasn’t until my kids started eating oranges on a regular basis that I started wishing I had one. The Citrus Peeler has one end that cuts the peel while the other end is used to pull the rind away from the fruit, which keeps you from getting the gunk from the oranges under your nails. I had a hard time finding the Citrus Peelers in the store but I found them online on both the Tupperware Website and Pampered Chef Website for less than $1, quite a deal for such a handy little tool.

Pampered Chef Adjustable Measuring Spoons

The Pampered Chef Adjustable Measuring Spoons are one of life’s little conveniences that I never knew I was missing out on. The Adjustable Measuring Spoons come in two sizes, small and large. The small spoon adjusts from 1/8 to 1 teaspoon while the large teaspoon adjusts from 1 teaspoon to 1 tablespoon. The Adjustable Measuring Spoon eliminates multiple measuring spoons, and the mess of storing them in your kitchen drawers. The Adjustable Measuring Spoons are $7.25, and can be found on Pampered Chef’s website.

Pampered Chef Easy Adjustable Measuring Cup

The Pampered Chef Easy Adjustable Measuring Cup is another gadget that makes my life just a little easier by combining seven different measuring cups into one, three tablespoons to one cup. The Pampered Chef Easy Adjustable Measuring Cup retails for $15.50 and can be found on the Pampered Chef website.
