It can sometimes feel like we’re cooking for hours only to sit down and eat for 5 minutes, and then we end up cooking instant noodles or cereal for dinner instead. While that definitely works every now and then (and in college) it might not be a viable option in the long run. However, these kitchen gadgets that we have found will hopefully make cooking a little less boring and inspire you to try out some new, tasty recipes!
Multipurpose Tool
If you’re reluctant to spend a lot of money on different kitchen tools because you’re not that into cooking, this tool is perfect for you. It’s a lemon squeezer, cheese grater, measuring cup and more, so it will save you a lot of money! Get it here for only £12.14.
“Absolutely great, many gadgets in one and looks great on the kitchen side. Thank you!”

Have you ever dreamt of becoming a sushi master? In that case, this is for you. Your guests will be so impressed when you serve them homemade sushi (they don’t have to know that you used this helpful kit). You can even create differently shaped sushi with this, like heart-shaped ones. Get it here for only £22.95.
“Very simple to use and makes great sushi! The sharp sushi knife is perfect for the job and everything is easy to clean and store. The only downside (?) is we now have fresh sushi pretty much every other day….”

Teppanyaki Grill
This is another tool that will make your life so much easier, and on top of that your guests will have fun with it. This way everyone can cook their own food table-side, either Japanese dishes like shrimp or traditional Western ones such as chicken or fish. Get yours here for £34.99.
“Best kitchen item I have ever purchased. Easy to use, sociable way to eat and cook.”

With this smart little tool you can easily put flavor in your stew and soups without the mess of having herbs float around in the stew or getting stuck in your teeth when you’re eating. It will make your cooking so much easier and more fun! Get it here for only £9.95.
“Love the Ototo Herb Infuser. Looks great and works really well. You can fit quite a lot of herbs in it and it’s not too big for the saucepan. Brilliant product”

If you’re an egg lover, you certainly need this handy tool. It’s primarily made for making amazing omelets, since it enables you to easily make two at the same time, but you can also use it to make fried or scrambled eggs. This brilliant tool is available for only £19.99.
“The VonShef is brilliant. So easy to use and the fluffiest omelettes I’ve ever had. Put raw mushrooms in and perfectly cooked after 8 mins. So easy to clean, just a quick wipe over with a damp cloth at the end and it’s done. Looking forward to experimenting with lots of flavours!”
says Gurney Girl
Although this tool might look a little bit intimidating it’s really quite the opposite and you will be so grateful for it. With this alone you will be able to create slices, dices, fries and juliennes so much quicker than with regular knives. Plus, it’s a lot safer than using knives! Get it here for £32.99.
“Excellent product! I used this to cut up potatoes and carrots to make crisps and it was perfect! I had to play around with the cutter to make sure we had the correct thickness but that was quite easy to do. It is also better than the other cutters as it is safe to use and no risk of slicing fingers.”

This might not be a cooking product but we still had to include it. This tool will clean your microwave in only a few minutes. All you have to do is fill it with vinegar and water and microwave it, and grease will loosen up so that you can wipe it off afterwards. Get yours here for only £3.40.
“Omg I just Love this product. It said to use vinegar but I hate the smell of it so used lemon juice instead. Angry Mama did exactly what she was meant to & ive never found cleaning my microwave so easy. I would highly recommend this product to everyone. 5*”
