Deluxe Cherry Stoner and Olive Pitter (Euro Scissor Design) Review

Deluxe Cherry Stoner and Olive Pitter (Euro Scissor Design)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Had a long discussion with our local kitchen store owner and looked at her stock. It looked like this cherry stoner would be the most efficient. It has a curved plate that holds the cherry in place as the pit remover is extracted from the fruit. It works just as well as I thought it would.
It extracts most pits cleanly without losing any of the fruit and the cherry drops out of the tool with a flick. Once I got a rhythm going, and realized that the the fastest extraction happens with the cherry inserted sideways, I was processing a cherry about every couple of seconds. It's not quite as fast as the old hopper feeder/lever action model I grew up with but almost. It also doesn't mangle the cherries like that did. They come out looking nice. It's a good thing that cherries ripen in mid summer so I could pit them over the glass patio table. Juicy cherries can be messy. Inside a sink works too but why waste a summer day?
If there's any negative it would be that this is made of plastic. It is certainly more fragile than a metal model. Though using it for a couple of hours a year I don't see that durability should be a problem. On the other hand, that plastic makes it very inexpensive.
I works well for Calamari olives too. The tool holds the larger fruit size just fine.

I bought this expecting a better product after a few washes the upper part began moving away from its original position and during whisking seems to move and does not whisk nearly as good as my original whiskers would not recommend this product

Norpro Silicone 11.5 Inch Medium Red Scoop Review

Norpro Silicone 11.5 Inch Medium Red Scoop
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is probably the most ingenious little tool, for the sheer fact that the rubber head pops off of the handle so you can throw it in the dishwasher without ruining the wood. Brilliant. Handle is comfortable, spoon head is nice and wide and sturdy...I plan on ordering at least 2 to 3 more and replacing my other crappy rubber spoon/spatulas. Highly recommend!

Norpro 4 Piece Silicone Prep Bowl Set, Red Review

Norpro 4 Piece Silicone Prep Bowl Set, Red
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
These little silicone prep bowls are great. The insides are so smooth, and nothing sticks. Super-easy clean-up. They are ridged out the outside for a better grip. They are lightweight, and stack nicely, taking up very little space. The pour spouts make adding liquid to a mixing bowl easier. I also find that I am always grabbing one of these to hold my grapes, popcorn or tortilla chips. My eight-year-old grandaughter loves to spend a few hours at Gram's house, and she likes these funny squishy bowls that won't break. Perfect for her snacks. She has become a big fan of these squeeze bowls too. The shade of red isn't too bright. Just all-around nice for the price.

Progressive International 9 Inch Stainless Steel Locking Tongs Review

Progressive International 9 Inch Stainless Steel Locking Tongs
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I needed a pair of tongs that wouldn't slip from wet or greasy hands. This product is great. Strong stainless steel with rubber inserts to help with the grip. I have a long pair too - that are perfect for working with outdoor grilling and smoking. These are the shorter ones and are just right for working with stove top cooking and serving. Oxo makes similar ones but I like these slightly better.

Norpro Stainless Steel Scoop, 50mm (3-Tablespoon) Review

Norpro Stainless Steel Scoop, 50mm (3-Tablespoon)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Finally, an ice cream scoop that gets the ice cream out of its container AND then out of the scoop into the dish. Sounds like a no-brainer, right? Should be -- but this is the first scoop design I've ever used that managed both with equal ease. Most of the old-fashioned ones had a release mechanism that got the ice cream into the dish pretty well, but needed tons of hot water and the strength of 10 men and a boy to get the goodie out of its native container. More recent versions have made the container-to-scoop process less of a herculean task, but need the assistance of finger or other appendage to make it the rest of the way to the bowl.
This delightful object has solved both problems. In addition, it's a God-send for baking cookies. I operate a virtual cookie factory every Christmas and have tried many techniques to speed the dough-to-baking pan transfer. Last year, I saw this scoop and its smaller (2 teaspoon) sibling at a kitchen supply place and purchased both. I was able to bang through all my drop cookies in record time -- hurrah!
Whether ice cream or cookie baking is your passion, I can't think of a better way to spend 10 bucks!
Enjoy!
