72 MacDirectory I like to make breakfast. However, cooking eggs have never been a strength of mine, which is why when I found out about M-Cuisine Egg Poacher, I was "egg-static". This microwave egg poacher makes preparing poached eggs a breeze. It is very easy to use. There are two colanders build it. Fill each compartment with water and then break each egg. Cover with the lid and microwave it. To serve, lift each colander and drain the water. Every chef needs reliable knives. The LockBlock & 6-Piece Knife Block Set not only comes with sharp knives, but also provides a block that locks each one into place, making it safe to keep around children. The LockBlock allows you to safely store kitchen knives. It has an innovative design that locks each knife inside the block, and to release each knife there is a concealed button that requires an adult had to add pressure. Each knife is held by a unique Cam-lock mechanism. A small child's hand will not be large enough to be able to work this mechanism. Now that you have a proper set of knives, you also need a proper cutting station. The Slice & Sharpen Wood is a cutting that comes with an integrated knife sharpener right around the handle. This is a brand new design by Joseph Joseph and its available is high-quality beech wood. It's a classic aesthetic. This sturdy cutting board comes with non-slip feet to prevent it from moving around while chopping vegetables. I've had the same design ice cube tray for decades. You fill it up with water and then you stick it in the freezer. Simple enough. However, sometimes my ice can smell like a freezer, and it can be difficult to remove each ice cube, especially if I only need a couple cubes. The QuickSnap Plus uses a unique switch mechanism that holds each ice cube securely into place. You have the option to release only one ice cube if so desired. Simple push the switch behind the desired cube and watch it pop up effortlessly. It also comes with a lid for easy stacking, and to avoid those unwanted freezer odors. There are a few utensils that will make your life easier in the kitchen, like the Smasher. It is designed to speed up the mashing process. Simple put the potato under the smasher and press. The Clean-Press is another essential that will end those garlic pressing nightmares. Simply put a clove inside the garlic press, and watch the clove come through the pierced extruder plate. Separate the two levers and use the top one to scrape the crushed garlic from the extruder plate. Being able to quickly clean up after cooking is just as important as having the right tools to cook. The Easy-Tear is an innovative product that makes tearing off paper towels with one hand possible. It stands up right and it has a sharp edge which allows for easy tearing. It also has a heavyweight base for stability and resistance when tearing sheets. Last but not least, the Fold-Flat Grater Plus comes with four styles of blade (one on each surface) in one unique design that folds down completely flat. This makes it really easy to store inside any drawer. It has secure handholds at the top to safely grab from while grating. This grater is perfect for coursing cheese, vegetables, and even works as a slicer for cucumbers, and potatoes. FEATURE MOM'S DREAM KITCHEN > WHAT INNOVATIVE GADGETS IS YOUR KITCHEN MISSING?
