You want to upgrade your household equipment, have decided to improve your cooking skills or are planning to set up a modern kitchen from scratch in your new apartment and don’t know which appliances are the most useful?
In today’s article you will find a list of essential appliances that no kitchen should be without. We’ve selected only those that can be used in many ways, and most importantly, those that you’re not going to leave on a shelf and forget about for months or even years. In other words, the list below showcases the kitchen essentials and includes exactly those appliances that are really useful, whether you’re cooking complicated menus every day or only using your kitchen at the end of the week to make your favorite cake.
Multipurpose blender
A good blender can save your hands as it reduces the time you spend cooking, but also because it creates new possibilities in the kitchen. Thanks to such an appliance, you can easily prepare a sauce, a veloute soup, or even portions of pureed baby food. Preparing a healthy fruit smoothie is a matter of minutes when using a powerful blender, and if you like to invite your friends to parties, you can successfully use it to prepare cocktails as well. It’s best to choose a multi-purpose blender so you can use it to chop, puree and blend ingredients, as well as crush ice.
Polygon Multi
The most dangerous and unpleasant part of preparing an interesting recipe is when you have to cut the ingredients. How many times haven’t you gotten cut up trying to chop onions as fast as professional chefs do? A multicutter will help you save time and reduces the risk of accidents in the kitchen. But to be really useful, it’s a good idea to choose a powerful multi-cutter, between 400 and 600 W. These multifunctional models also allow you to use them to make sauces or stir a filling. You can consult the specifications of the appliance before you buy it to know all its uses.
Multi-purpose toaster
A multi-purpose toaster can help you in many ways, and it’s one of the appliances you’ll likely use on a daily basis. Whether it’s to make a quick toast or to prepare waffles for the kids, or even to bake for Sunday dinner. Because it basically works like a small grill, you can use it to cook meat and vegetables. If you want to take advantage of all the benefits this appliance has to offer, make sure you choose a model with removable plates.
Coffee maker
The coffee maker is essential for those who love that delicious energy-giving beverage, but it can also prove essential for those who love tea. It is best to choose a model that has automatic programming and an auto shut-off function. Who doesn’t like waking up in the morning and finding hot coffee or tea ready in the kitchen?
Table mixer
For recipes that call for meringue, a stand mixer with a large capacity (about two pounds) is most useful. You can also use a hand mixer, but with a stand mixer you won’t have to hold the bowl at the same time and it allows you to add more ingredients to your recipe. We suggest you choose a model that also has a kneading accessory, which will come in handy for when you want to make bread at home. Finally, one more suggestion: it’s a good idea to know all the properties of your home appliances so that you don’t find yourself in the unpleasant position of having bought an appliance that does the same thing as an appliance you already have at home. That way you won’t incur unnecessary expenses and clutter your kitchen.
