I just got a great new gadget that I thought anyone who enjoys cooking would
be interested in. It's called StirChef, and it's a hands free, cordless saucepan stirrer. It only cost $29.95 (I brought mine at Bed, Bath & Beyond) and includes the batteries, a silicon splashguard (to keep the bottom clean) and has a continuous and intermittent setting (for when a recipe calls for only occasional stirring). I've used it for risotto, rice pudding, gravy, and sauces (to name a few things), and it really works great, but what is really nice is that it great when tempering chocolate. Instead of being stuck at the stove stirring, I was freed up to set the table, watch TV and even run out to the store for a thing or two I forgot for the meal! It has plenty of power (I've used it for polenta) and the batteries last a long time - the manufacturer says they will last 5 hours on continuous run or 10 hours on intermittent - I'm still on my 1st set of batteries and have used it over 12 times for about a total of 4 hours and the batteries are still going strong. If you want more info they have a web site - www.stirchef.com that you can check out. |
