Spice Up The Spice Rack With A Twist

Nambe Twist Spice Rack

Spice racks are a generally overlooked item in the kitchen. After all, no matter how good one looks it is what they hold that is infinitely more interesting. However, while you can’t cook with a spice rack, you still have to look at it.

The Nambe Twist Spice Rack puts a spin on the traditional by combining aesthetics and function in one piece of countertop kitchen gear. The rotating unit is comprised of acacia wood and a distinctive metal alloy familiar to Nambe products. Includes 16 bottles with thyme, curry powder, oregano, red pepper flakes, basil, onion powder, tarragon, bay leaf, parsley, rosemary, garlic powder, paprika, coriander, cumin, mustard and chili powder. Although at a price of two hundred bucks the box most likely was sitting around for some time; you may want to replenish some of those spices.

Piece Of Cake Isn’t

Nambé Rocks Cake Plate

Eating pie and cake is dangerous sport. Somehow the expression “piece of cake” evolved to mean something that was quite easy to accomplish. Considering just the amount of wedding-cake fiascos and pies-in-the-face that occur on a daily basis, this saying is something of a farce. Perhaps we let it slide because cake is so sweet and delicious. In any event, the actual serving of a piece of cake usually isn’t fraught with tension. While the Nambe Rocks Cake Plate might not be on par with any cake-related mishaps you may have experienced, its off-center base provides just enough excitement to keep things interesting. Overzealous cake-cutters may want to beware.

When On The Rocks Isn’t Cold Enough

Margaritaville NBMGDC1000 Chillin' Pour Liquor Chiller

Most alcoholic beverages are somewhat of a required taste. Remember your first beer? Doesn’t taste so odd now, huh? As a gateway drug drink, beer has nothing on the next level up: hard liquor. Soon after discovering that sugar is an effective mixer, 21-year-olds (ahem) everywhere learn that, for their still-developing tastebuds, when it comes to booze, colder is better.

Providing a means to chill drinks colder than ice, the Margaritaville NBMGDC1000 Chillin’ Pour Liquor Chiller is a super-freezer and a drink-dispenser all in one. Chilling spirits down to 15-degrees F, the small countertop unit uses a distinctive throttle handle to ease out a shot of super-cooled booze. The unique bar accessory holds up to 750-mL of booze, or just enough to get the frat party started. At a price point similar to that of a college textbook or two, it may not constitute required reading, but it shouldn’t come as any surprise what will get more use.

Gratelifter Grill Gets Grillers Going

Cuisinart Gratelifter Charcoal Grill CCG-100

Portable grills are imprecise beasts: charcoal gets dumped in, and maybe or maybe not it will be enough fuel to feed a crowd. As the procession of burgers, steaks and chicken come off the grill and make their way into hungry hands, the charcoal burns down and grillers try to squeeze every last bit of heat out of the coals. Because nobody wants to get all grimy lifting up the greasy grill grate to add more charcoal.

Featuring an integrated mechanism that does the lifting for you, the Cuisinart GrateLifter Portable Charcoal Grill keeps the food party going. When engaged, the grill grate couples to the lid, allowing for both to rise in one easy motion. Just add more charcoal, and get those grilled goodies going again.

Corner Cutting Board Doesn’t Cut Corners

Kitchen counter space is always at a premium. Filled with appliances, countertops quickly go from being a center for useful gadgets to being messy mazes in which to work around. Even the simple everyday task of prep work can become hazardous in such circumstances. For those resigned to having cluttered countertops, having a little more space to work with is always appreciated.
