Two guys that will actually help you cook! – Fivebop’s Lid Lifter.

Standard

OMG! These little guys are too cute. The icing on the cake is: They actually work!!!!!! I make my own sauce a lot, and it always splatters everywhere. Even when I have the heat setting on 2. I have a very large and heavy, cast iron pot, that I mainly use. These guys held up the heavy lid like it was nothing, and kept my sauce from splattering everywhere. They let the air circulate, while still letting the ingredients you are cooking, to continue cooking, without lowering the temp. It’s more efficient this way, and I do not have to babysit the pot, and constantly stir it. It frees me up to be able to do the other cooking I need to do. These two pot lid holders look like two little guys. Honestly, I really can’t get over how cute they are, lol. You place them on each side of your pot, and then place your lid down on them. If you have a small lid, you can just use one. They are made out of thick and sturdy silicone. They are so durable. It doesn’t matter if you drop them, throw them, step on them, and let your kid play with them. They will remain in the same condition. All you’ll need to do is wash them. They are even dishwasher safe. These two pot lid holders are made out of non-toxic silicone. Silicone has great heat tolerance. Just don’t let them get close to open flames. I use a lot of silicone in the kitchen in regards to utensils and cookware. It cleans so easily, as food really doesn’t stick to it, and the durability is awesome. You can even use one of these as an impromptu cell phone holder. My phone case isn’t slippery itself, so I can lean my huge Note 5 in an Otterbox case, against the little man, and it holds it up for me, horizontally. It’s just another great use for these. I do not have any chopsticks, but they mention in their ad, that these can be used tableside to hold your chopsticks. That would be really fun to do. I might have to break down and order my husband the light saber chopsticks now, lol. It doesn’t hurt to want whimsical items in the kitchen, when they actually help and make your job easier. It makes a chore not feel like a chore. These are a great quality and highly useful item. My mom has already told me she wants a pair as a gift, and I can’t blame her for that. I think every kitchen needs a set.

A modern edge in the kitchen. – The Checkered Chef’s Stainless Steel and Silicone Utensils.

Standard

I am a big fan of stainless in the kitchen. It is such a durable material, and so easy to keep clean. Unfortunately, not all pans love stainless. So this silicone/nylon and 18/10 stainless combination is perfect. Aesthetically, I love the modern, clean look. You get 1 holder, 1 spatula, 1 tongs, 1 slotted spoon, 1 spoon, and 1 ladle in this set. I love the stainless holder with the square cut outs. It is really sharp looking, and pretty sturdy as well. There is even room for more cooking utensils in this container as well. Which I find very handy. All of the tools are stainless but the ends have a thick coating of silicone coated nylon on them. They are all a good usable size and are comfortable to hold and use. The tongs do not have a lot of resistance built into them. They are very easy to use, and grip well. Even though you get the holder, each utensil even has a loop to hang them from. I am personally not a utensil hanger, lol, so I am loving the actual holder. Only the very tips of the utensils are soft. Just shy of the edge of the utensil is just silicone coated nylon, but the actual body is solid with the interior stainless body. These are full size, quality made cooking utensils. Overall, there are all approx.. 13” tall. They are even a good size for a man’s hand. They say the nylon gives the strength for the coating, while the silicone give the utensil a strong heat resistance, so there won’t be any worry of it melting. Silicone has a very high heat tolerance rating. I have a set of pans that have a ceramic nonstick coating on them. I love them, and this set of cooking utensils ae perfect for my pans. They are gentle on the finish, but are very sturdy utensils, and do not bend or flex on me. The can handle any meal you throw at them.
