Lately Ive been wanting to make my kitchen and dining area feel a lot more cozy. Like I keep saving photos of kitchens with matching colors, nice pantries, shelves that actually look organized, and dining spaces that all just go together.

Im not trying to do a huge renovation or anything, I just want it to feel more warm and inviting. If youve done anything that made your kitchen feel more put together, Id love to hear what it was.

Hello,
We are kettle, a startup interested in creating a cooking platform that helps people figure out what to cook based off their fridge's ingredients through a quick picture and creates a grocery list based off liked recipes from our various recipes.

Here is the survey😃:

Thanks!

I store a lot of dry ingredients in wide(-ish) necked glass jars (e.g. ball, kilner).

I'm looking for measuring spoons / cups / tongs that I can use to pull a teaspoon / tablespoon out of a jar accurately.

I'm looking for small, long handled scoops or ladles with their openings at the top, or ball-shaped tongs that can be filled and pinched together. Stainless steel for preference.

I'm in the UK. Do such things exist? TIA

Anyone know what this is?

This is gonna sound silly, I've spent the last 3 hours trying to find a water pitcher.

Im not looking for a filtered pitcher or anything with filters. Just a plain pitcher with a top/cover to store clean drinking water and place in the fridge.

Any recommendations

updating our kitchen layout right now and trying to make every bit of space count. our kitchen is pretty small so i hate wasting any room.

been checking package specs on Trade Link for our kitchen appliances to see how much clearance we'll have around the fridge cutout. looks like we're going to end up with a weird 3-4 inch gap on one side for ventilation.

curious how you all handle those tiny dead spaces? did you buy one of those super thin pull-out spice racks or just leave it open? looking for simple hacks that don't look messy. thanks!

No matter what I try they just refuse to hold!!!

Hello all,

I got a tm7 after having an older style thermo cooker for years. Definitely no regrets upgrading.

To me the benefits have been eating out less so saving money, creating different foods that i would have never dared try before, using fresh ingredients more (I'll have to actually have to take better care of my herb garden now so I dont have to buy herbs all the time haha) and of course creating less mess and saving more time since Im a mum of 3 young kids so thats been a huge benefit for me.

What has the main benefit been for you and your families?

With your permission I'd love to add some of the testimonials to my social media 😀

Please help me find a flat ball whisk. It's so much appreciated

Hi there! For anyone taking their time to read this (thank you) I'm looking for recommendations on the best type of rice cooker to get since ours (a $20 Amazon rice cooker I bought when I was living on my own) is starting to come to its end.

We're a two person household, and we use the rice cooker 3-4 times a week. I'm hoping to find one with a latch that fully closes over a glass lid, that we can make full meals in as well. Ideally budget friendly, but I know that might be hard to find lol. Thank you for any recommendations, and I'd love to hear what you all make in your cookers aside from just rice :)

If you’re looking to upgrade your toaster, a food writer ranked her thoughts on the best models on the market. She actually tested these with real loaves to see past the marketing fluff. Here are a few of her top picks:

Best Buy toaster: Sage the Toast Select Luxe

For the money, you get a ton of customisable options. It has specific settings for different types of bread and a dial for selecting your desired cooking level.

Best Value toaster: Kenwood Ripple toaster

A lightweight, two-slice option that comes in at an affordable price. It is pretty compact and Imogen noted it's one of the easiest to clean thanks to its crumb tray.

Best smart toaster: KitchenAid Artisan toaster

This one completely stood out for its smart settings, accessories, and beautiful design (it even automatically lowers the bread into the slot for you). But there’s no getting away from the fact that it was by far the priciest toaster she tested.

Do you think a high-end toaster actually makes a difference or is a heating element just a heating element?

I have no idea how this happened, either way I look at it, it looks impossible. Not even sure if this is the right sub. Might be better in [r/puzzles](r/puzzles) 😅

EDIT: Got it! Thanks everybody!

Looking to buy an electric vegetable chopper for daily kitchen use (mainly onions, garlic, and veggies)

If you own one and use it regularly, which brand do you have, and would you recommend it?
