Kitchen Cabinet Guide

Having made a few cherry pies in our day with pit removal being a pain, it’s nice to find this pit remover from Oxo. The Splatter Shield protects your work area from juices and removes for cleaning. The sturdy, die-cast zinc construction removes pits with ease by pushing the pit right out the bottom. The generous cherry holder accommodates large cherries like Bing and Rainier, and is recessed to secure smaller varieties. And if you’re worried about having this in the kitchen with kids – it locks closed for convenient storage and safety.

It’s funny because we’re not sure when the electric skillet left our kitchen, but we used to use one when we had an apartment all the time. We really like this powerful, environmentally friendly electric skillet because it lets you sear, fry, griddle, simmer or braise using a ceramic-based nonstick surface that’s petroleum-free and contains no PTFE or PFOA. The big thing about an electric skillet is you can typically make an entire meal right in it, and add ingredients as you cook to make a sizable meal for 3-4 people easily.

14″-round cooking surface provides more than 150 sq. in. of space.
Heat disperses evenly across the entire surface for consistent browning.
Nonstick surfaces are easy to clean.
Six temperature settings: warm, 250°F, 300°F, 350°F, 400°F and 450°F.
An indicator light turns off when the set temperature is reached.
The tempered-glass lid makes it easy to monitor cooking progress.
Polished-stainless-steel finish.

The Transfer Cutting Board from Chris and Ruby makes the age old problem of moving your cut foods from the cutting board to the plate a bit easier. The cutting board has a round cutout for plates and is raised up slightly allowing the plate to slide right under for food transfer. We’d like to see have an adjustable set of feet underneath the cutting board to allow for larger bowls, salads, and other things besides plates, as we usually transfer to the final place or smaller prep bowls.

We really like this 15-bar pump-driven espresso machine with durable stainless-steel boiler, that features 2 thermostats for separately controlling water and steam pressure. It also has a self-priming operation; accommodates E.S.E. pods and ground espresso. The adjustable swivel jet frother looks like it will whip up a nice latte, and the removable 35-ounce water tank is large enough to reduce trips to the faucet.
Measures 7-1/2 by 9-1/2 by 11-1/8 inches; 1-year warranty

We’ve been using this 12-Inch stainless steel fry pan with stainless steel lid from All Clad over the past week and love it. It features a 3-Ply bonded construction with aluminum core that distributes heat evenly, and they aren’t kidding. We’ve made eggs to fried catfish, and clean up is easy as long as you leave a little hot water in the pan. Our favorite part is how the 18/10 stainless steel interior will not react with food.

We recently became aware of one thing in our kitchen – a hurting lower back after chopping and cutting for hours on end. We pretty sure a perfect height meets cutting experience would help our ailing back. So off we set to find an adjustable or even better height cutting board and we found WP.

WP offers cutting boards in a variety of thicknesses and heights to allow you to adjust your working height to one that is comfortable for you AND a specific task. They can also build kitchen islands and carts that are taller than standard.
