Despite proclaiming that I like to live like a minimalist , I will admit today that I am a sucker for kitchen gadgets – primarily the ones that are functional and time-saving.
A good example would be the Instant Pot or my Blendtec blender.
I spent hours debating whether to buy these items and if they justified their price tag. Now that I love them so much, I often wonder how did I ever live without them?
Not all kitchen tools that are helpful and functional have to be expensive, there are plenty of nifty and budget friendly kitchen tools that simplify the life of home cooks like the ones I have listed below. They are an excellent addition to your own kitchen or as a gift for the cook in your life.
