  • Cooking Quick Tip: Necessary Gadgets
  • From "Ask DIY"
    episode ADI-515
    advertisement

    Chef Paul Sturkey suggests three gadgets no kitchen should be without:

    • Knife sharpener: Be sure to get one that sharpens both smooth and serrated blades.

    • Instant-read pocket thermometer: Get one with large numbers that can be seen from a distance. Some models look like a fountain pen and are printed with a guide that tells you at what temperatures foods are done.

    • Pastry bag: Even if you're not a pastry chef, this gadget can be used to make a variety of tasks easier, such as serving mashed potatoes or even stuffing the Thanksgiving turkey!
