would this apple corer go into your 10 must-have kitchen tools/gadgets?
would have to admit, i’m a sucker for these new befungling gadgets too. but there will always be the tried and tested and very basic ones which are absolute musts in my own kitchen, and gotta be in this order.

1. good kitchen knife
2. wok
3. immersion blender
4. cast-iron stew pot
5. my Bosch food processor (which can do a million things, so this is kind of cheating a bit on this list…)
6. wine cork opener
8. peeler
9. mortar and pestle
10. coffee maker

there goes. i wonder what would constitute MM’s essentials in his own kitchen?…

Another single-use gadget recently patented in the US was the mango splitter. Quite ingenious and I wonder why we didn’t think of it first. I guess we just love sucking the pit. The only drawback is that it isn’t big enough to handle our kalabaw mangoes.

Among my favorite gadgets–microplane graters, they make zesting citrus and grating chocolate or cheese so easy, you find yourself figuring out new uses for these ingredients!

Titanons, just leave the core in, then do another apple… the first core should pop out then…
