Recently I observed a few new gagetry ideas that were somewhat unique. How about sizzors for cutting Pizza slices or some tongs that help you lift your turkey?

There are numerous new electronic gadgets such as an electronic pepper mill that grinds your pepper and then monitors the remaining peppercorns you have left.  I found a hand held electronic mixer/blender and a refrigerator air purifier. I found a voice alert thermometor and even a cleaver cutter.

I saw some gadget that monitors your recipies and even gives you access to internet recipies mounted conveniently to your kitchen cabinets to observe while you cook. You could place something like this close to your beautiful knife block or lovely knife block set.

Don’t hesitate to tell me about your discovery of some new gadget that interests you. I welcome your comments.

Carving knife sets usually consist of a carving knife and a carving fork and are usually sold as a set.  The carving knife is sometimes called a slicer tho generally constructed a little different.  The carving knife has a shorter and wider blade than the slicer which usually has a longer and narrower blade.  The carving knife usually ranges from 8 to 15 inches in length and is used primarily to cut thin slices of meat such as ham, poultry, roasts or other cooked meats.  A carving knife is thinner than a chef’s knife which allows it to cut thin slices.   

The carving fork is a long, two-pronged fork used to hold the meat while carving the meat.  It’s important to use a carving fork while carving meats to keep it from slipping aroung and allowing a more controlled cut with the knife.
