The immersion blender is a great kitchen gadget that's especially useful in cooler months when soup making is a frequent activity. Although I have an immersion blender I love, DearSugar does not.

I asked you to help me find her the perfect immersion blender. You headed off to market in search of practical, functional blenders with strong blades. You saved the sticks in the Yum Market on TeamSugar with the keyword tag, Immersion Blender.

W swears by her Bamix Swissline blender. With its "powerful motor, easy-to-clean attachments that work very well and effectively, and stretchy cord," she refers to it as a "godsend." For more immersion blenders — ideal for making pumpkin soup — browse the selection below.

The immersion blender is one of my favorite kitchen gadgets. It quickly and easily purees soups and sauces without dirtying another bowl. It's especially useful in cooler months when soup making is a frequent activity. Although I have an immersion blender I love, DearSugar does not. She recently asked me to help her find one, so let's head off to market in search of immersion blenders. Look for blenders with strong blades that are practical and functional. Save the sticks in the Yum Market on TeamSugar with the keyword tag, Immersion Blender.

Do You Own a Rice Cooker?

Last week, the New York Times discussed the versatility of cooking with a rice cooker.

Last week, the New York Times discussed the versatility of cooking with a rice cooker. I couldn't agree more: A rice cooker has always been standard equipment in my family's kitchen.

Plus, rice has been making a comeback — so it doesn't hurt to have one for that reason, either.

I love the convenience of owning one. I simply dump the rice and water in together, hit a button, and about half an hour later my grains are ready. What are your thoughts?

Flatshare Fridge: Love It or Hate It?

Got roommates who steal your food?
by partysugar

Got roommates who steal your food? What you need is a flatshare fridge! This creative fridge consists of a base fridge and four stackable pieces that allow each user to have a private fridge. Made for the Electrolux Design Lab Competition by Austrian designer Stefan Buchberger, the flatshare — which comes in a variety of colors — can be customized to include a bottle opener or whiteboard. I think this fridge is incredibly clever, but wonder if the small compartment could hold all of my culinary needs. What do you think?

From spice grinders to immersion blenders, electronic appliances make whipping up sauces, soups, and soufflés a breeze. While many gadgets have a specified use, others, like the food processor or standing mixer, are versatile multitaskers. Whether it's the espresso machine that makes your morning coffee or the ice cream maker that freezes your frozen treats, everyone has that one kitchen appliance — the tool you rely on to make you a better cook — that you just can't live without.

So, spill the beans: what's the one kitchen gadget you cannot live without?

Off to Market Recap: Indoor Grills

While I love to barbecue with friends, I don't have a grill to call my own — yet.

While I love to barbecue with friends, I don't have a grill to call my own — yet. There isn't room outside my apartment for a grill, so I asked you to point me towards indoor options. You looked for indoor electric grills in any color, shape, or size and you bookmarked everything you found in the Yum Market on TeamSugar with the keyword tag, Indoor Grills.

I love this Griddler by Cuisinart, because it has four separate grilling options: a contact grilll, a flat grill, a griddle, and a panini press. The plates are also removable, so they can be easily cleaned! For more grilling ideas, check out the appliances below.

Registry Roundup: Gadgets and Gizmos!

One of the most fun things to add to your wedding registry is kitchen gadgets!
by

One of the most fun things to add to your wedding registry is kitchen gadgets! From microwave ovens to coffee bean grinders, no kitchen is complete without a few gizmos. When choosing your registry items, be sure to look through your items first. If you already have a state-of-the-art mixer, then there's no need to register for another. If you never drink coffee, why bother with an espresso machine? Also, take note of which of your items you want to replace, and the colors you'll want to get.

Not sure where to begin? Take a look at our handy printable registry as well as all of our wedding coverage at IDoSugar.

Mommy Alert! Watch Out For Appliances

Kids and appliances just don't mix.

Kids and appliances just don't mix. I've heard stories about children hiding in file cabinets, climbing in dryers and losing their hair or fingers to hand mixers. But, now a washing machine has been added to the list with a recent story in the Virginia Pilot.

A four-year-old climbed into his family's top loading washing machine and got stuck. It said:

Donovan Hasseman, who wasn't hurt, was wedged up against the agitator with a knee folded against his chest, while the machine was empty and not running Sunday night, Dover Fire Capt. Mike Mossor said.
