Beyond The Kitchen Sink

Like A Big Pizza Pi

Pizza Pi Cutter

It was only a matter of time.

Quick question: which pizza has more pizza? The 18â€ large at pizzeria A or the 16â€ large at pizzeria B? Why pizzeria A of course. But if they charge a higher price for their large, it doesnâ€™t necessarily mean it is the best deal. To figure out the area of any ~~pizza~~ circle, pi is necessary. Remember pi x r-squared? Yup, thatâ€™s area. As in usable, eatable pizza pie. So it seems only appropriate that the Pizza Pi Cutter exists.

Of course, this doesnâ€™t take into account any coupons for chicken wings to go with, but it would work for mostly circular chicken nuggets. But if your pizzeria is hawking nuggets, you probably want the other pizzeria anyways.

Measuring Spoons Where You Expect Them To Be

Measuring Spoons & Caddy

Measuring spoons are pesky little kitchen utensils: they are never where you expect them to be and when you do find one, itâ€™s usually the wrong one. Keeping them all attached on a key ring is one way to keep â€˜em togetherâ€”assuming you can find it in the back of the drawer. This set of Measuring Spoons & Caddy keeps the handy utensils always within reach on the countertop. The stainless steel set is unobtrusive and as an added bonus, even comes with an extra tablespoonâ€”just in case one gets misplaced.

Click ‘n Cook Modular Spatula

Having the right tool for the job is an essential aspect of cooking. One look in most any kitchen drawer will confirm as much; they are often cluttered with a horde of cooking implements. One option for keeping long-handled pieces out where they can be easily reached is the old-fashioned crock jar. For some, that unorganized look just won’t do, but there is another solution.

Serving Crackers On Their Own Tray

Crackers often get overlooked. Special attention is always paid to the cheese or the spread, but when it comes to the delivery vehicle–the cracker–more often than not they get tossed onto a plate as an afterthought. Even saltines deserve better. The Wilton Armetale Reggae Cracker Tray elevates the lowly cracker on up to the level of its serving partner. The 13-inch long platter holds at least a package of crackers and also happens to be safe for oven use–but serving hot crackers probably won’t fool anybody into thinking you made them yourself.

When Your Cooking Isn’t The (Good Type Of) Bomb

Cooking can be deadly. Hopefully yours isn’t, but just in case, there is a way to warn your guests. The Time Bomb Kitchen Timer is a simple little kitchen timer, but the implications are explosive. If someone you know has cooking skills that could use a little work, then maybe this is the gift to get them. Then again, that could always blow up right in your face too.

Kitchen Gear Made For Kids

Kids aren’t particularly good chefs, but that’s not (entirely) their fault. Often, nobody has taught them what to do. If the very real concern of letting them use the grown-up tools is the issue, then perhaps setting them loose on their own kitchen gear is the way to go. The Curious Chef 27-Piece Foundation Set is a (knifeless) kid-friendly set of kitchen tools designed for small hands. While the good news is teaching kids in the kitchen will provide valuable life long skills, the better news is that with their own gear they will stop messing up the good stuff.
