so, my latest obsession is kitchen gadgets. i already am ok at and enjoy baking but i want to improve my cooking skill. ive been trying lots of new recipes lately so i regeisterd for a bunch of stuff for the wedding. i didnt get much of what i wanted but i was able to return enough to get what i really wanted.
my most favorite item is by far my cookie scoop. its like a mini icecream scoop. its makes perfect size cookies everytime. and since they are the perfect size, they bake in the perfect amount of time and are fabulous!
today i just got a micro planer and a big food processor. ive been wanting a microplaner for a long time, lots of the recipes ive tried call for grated dinger or the zest of some fruit. the food processor is phenomenal! i got a small one for the wedding, but decided that i didnt like it so i exchanged it for the next size up. i just made a dough for a cobbler like thing that im making for dessert and it was sooo easy! and, it has a slicer attachment perfect for slicing apples. apple tart, here i come!
and i got an immersion hand blender for making soups and stuff. i call it my boat motor. im making a roasted tomato soup later this week. and it came with a whisk attachment so i can use it to make homemade whipped cream!
finally i got a whole new set of calphalon cookware. my faveorite part of the set is the wok. ive made some killer stirfry and my next challenge is fried rice.
