The kitchen is such an interesting and powerful place. It is interesting because a myriad of intricate activities takes place within the kitchen. A kitchen is also a powerful place because the affairs of the stomach are decided there. Food is one of the most important things in a man’s life and as such a lot of attention must be placed on the kitchen as that is where food is produced.
There are several appliances in the kitchen that aid in the production and serving of food. Some of these appliances have been with us for a long time. Others were recently introduced to the kitchen space and this article aims to highlight how these new appliances have the power to change your life.
Some of the interesting kitchen appliances which may change your life include:
Air Fryer
Like our regular fryers, air fryers are appliances used to fry our food. Unlike a regular fryer, however, an air fryer does not use oil to fry food but rather uses air, as the name implies. It is an innovative piece of kitchen technology that holds the promise of transforming the food industry. This is because it provides an alternative to our regular fryers by creating a means for us to enjoy fried foods without having to also consume oil. This innovation is really beneficial to the health of its users as it reduces the amount of oil and cholesterol entering into the system, thus helping to prevent cardiovascular and other similar diseases.
Cold-Pressed Juicer
Cold-pressed juicers are appliances used in extracting juice from fruits. Like regular juicers, they extract the juice from the fruit by crushing the fruit. Unlike regular juicers, however, cold-pressed juicers do not crush the fruits through the use of centripetal force but rather crush them by applying pressure to them. One of the benefits of this juicing method is that unlike regular juicers who use centripetal force, the method used by cold-pressed juicers does not cause heat. This protects the juice from losing valuable nutrients via their destruction by heat. Another benefit of the cold-pressed juicer is that its juicing method extracts the juice while retaining the pulp, a feature absent in regular juicers. The pulp has a lot of amazing health benefits, so it being retained is a wonderful advantage.
Bread Maker
Bread is a staple food everywhere in the world and is most likely what you would find on most family tables every morning. The sheer amount of bread consumed across the globe is mind-blowing and the bakers usually struggle to meet up with the demand. All these points to the fact that it is important to learn how to make your own bread.
But what if you are not a skilled baker or you don’t know how to bake at all? That is where the bread maker comes in. This appliance comes with a lot of features that enable it to handle everything about baking your bread from start to finish. All you need are the ingredients and a couple of presets. Once these are handled, your baking is good to go.
Pressure Cooker
A pressure cooker is a high-tech kitchen appliance that functions as a pot and a cooker. As the name implies, pressure cookers create a lot of pressure when cooking due to the tightly fitted nature of the cookers and their lids. This causes a vacuum to be created within the cooker and when the heat is applied, pressure begins to rise within the cooker. This rising pressure supports the heat in the cooking of food. Having pressure cookers are beneficial in the kitchen because the pressure created within the cooker makes food ready much quicker than it would have been in conventional cookers.
Vacuum Sealer
One of the most important aspects of life in the kitchen is storage. After food has been cooked the part not immediately eaten must be stored away. Foodstuff and cooking ingredients also need to be stored away for future use. The way they are stored needs to be properly handled and utmost care must be taken to ensure that neither air nor moisture can enter or affect them. This is where vacuum sealers come in. Vacuum sealers in conjunction with vacuum bags help in properly storing things in the kitchen. It works this way; when a material is put in a vacuum bag and passed through a vacuum sealer, the vacuum sealer sucks out the air and moisture in the bag before proceeding to seal the bag. This helps a lot in preserving food items and the like in the kitchen.
The kitchen can be such an enjoyable place to be in and the introduction of appliances such as the ones listed in this article will only serve to make it more interesting and with their wide range of features and benefits, they might really change your life.
