A sturdy food processor on a kitchen counter makes for an impressive sight.

The large base has a weighty appeal and gives off a sense of efficiency. If the size doesn't impress you, the blades-in-waiting and protruding feeding tube will. And yet, even though these standard kitchen appliances look like they can handle any task, sometimes they are just too big and bulky.

Styles may have changed through the years, but the basic idea has always been the same and that is to make bread more delicious by browning it. That includes the ones that toast differently.

The soft sound of bread toasting is a welcome addition to any morning.

The crackles and pings of metal heating up and stretching to greet the day are a comforting way to shake off the cold sleep of night. The sounds mean that the smell of slathered butter and cinnamon will soon greet the air, offering a perfect complement to the slowly brewing coffee. And then the toaster pops up the finished toast with a pang loud enough to raise, if not the dead, at least the rest of the household.

Consider a re-imagining of the morning scene, complete with … Read more

We ask much of our kitchen gear, often pushing whatever we have past its limits. Forks get used as knives, blenders are put into action as food processors, toaster ovens suddenly become complete-meal makers; anything to avoid dirtying another pot, pan, or dish, right? As such, it has become commonplace to find appliances that have multiple functions built right in.

The Cuisinart Multi Cooker is a slow cooker, a steamer, a roaster, and a frying pan all rolled up into one. Especially convenient is the saut?ing function. Instead of breaking out a frying pan to brown meats before roasting … Read more

Grilling isn't always about bringing the kitchen into the backyard; sometimes it is about bringing the kitchen to the park, beach, or big game (or even not-so-big game). Thankfully, manufacturers long ago figured out that bulky kitchen equipment should stay right where it belongs. It wasn't long after that when the same thing was discovered as it relates to the backyard grill; it's no fun trying to lug the full-size grill around, even though that doesn't mean many of us have tried.

Where backyard grillers looking for an outing may have failed, owners of portable grills … Read more

The rush to get out the door in the morning can be a hectic whirlwind of activity. After bumping into walls and tripping over end tables we manage to find the kitchen, ready to tackle the basic necessity of food. (And coffee.) All too often at this point we are presented with a conundrum: enough time to prepare something to eat, yet not enough time to eat it. Luckily, sustenance doesn't always take the form of solid food, and a highly portable smoothie will suffice.
