From a classy pantone-coloured whisk to a nifty gadget that turns your analogue rice cooker into a sous vide machine, these stylish pieces will be the talking points of your kitchen.
SLEEK BEATS
Normann Copenhagen Beater Whisk, $19, from Dream Interiors
When you're not using it to whisk, slip the centre ring down and it’ll collapse into a sleek column for easy storage. But an even better idea is to just leave it on your countertop ─ it’ll enliven the kitchen with a sophisticated pop of colour.
LUNCHBOX ENVY
Prepd Pack, US$60 (S$81.50), from getprepd.com
This gorgeous lunchbox is just the motivation we need to pack a home-cooked lunch to the office. It comes with microwave-safe modular containers (and a mini dressing pot for salads), and the cutlery magnetically “clips” on to keep everything neat.
KITCHEN CHOPS
The Ultimate Cutting Board, US$149 (S$202), available from November from theultimatecuttingboard.com
It’s no mere chopping board. This multi-tasker comes with a slicer/grater attachment, measuring cups, a citrus juicer and a drawer for stowing away knives. You can even detach the interlocking halves to get two beautiful, maple serving boards.
FLAT-PACK WONDER
Aurea Dish Drainer by Delica, $109, from Ewins Home.
Dishwashing has never been so stylish. The minimalist dish drainer can be disassembled, flat-packed and stowed away easily. It's not the largest, but it can hold about nine plates, and a couple of mugs as well.
#FOODPORN
Le Petit Kit of Food Styling, $65, from beylonguefille.com.
This pencil case-sized kit is what every foodstagrammer needs to glam up a shot. Everything from the vintage and wooden teaspoons to linen fabric were curated to provide a versatile mix of props for any kind of food photo.
EASY SOUS-VIDE
Codlo, £119 ($214), from codlo.com.
You don’t need an expensive, space-hogging machine to do sous-vide at home. Codlo is a smart gadget that can turn your existing analog rice cooker or slow cooker into a sous-vide unit. Plug your cooker into the Codlo, and its food-safe thermometer will switch your rice cooker on and off to maintain the desired temperature.
STYLE-WORTHY RAGS
MyDrap Cotton Napkins, $33, from Tott.
Think of this as an elegant, midway solution between a kitchen rag and disposable paper towels. The pretty geometric prints add colour to the kitchen, and these cotton napkins are machine washable too.
