Five foodie-finds for Friday, March 8th.

nwafoodie foodie finds for friday

Hello beautiful Friday and you know what that means… it is time to explore five more foodie-finds!  Each Friday I share five kitchen gadgets and foodstuffs that I think are interesting enough to crave.

1.

Prime cuts dishtowel. This one is for all you carnivores out there who like quoting your cuts of meat.  The only downside is that now your guests will know if you are telling the truth or not.

 

2.

Copper hand strainer.  Please don’t tell me that you have a cheap plastic pasta and vegetable strainer. If you have one as beautiful as this copper-plated stainless steel one, give yourself an A.  If you would rate yours a C or below, replace it immediately!  If you are at a B, perhaps it is time to put this on your wish list for the future.

3.

Egg pasta flour.  If you like the idea of getting more hands-on when it comes to your pasta dinners but aren’t quite ready to take the leap to getting a pasta machine, this may be your first step.  A Williams-Sonoma exclusive, this pre-measured flour blend will get you that much closer to al dente.  Simply mix according to directions, roll out on your countertop, and cut into strips.  Dinner will be ready in no time… what time did you say for me to arrive?

4.

White enamel-coated steal measuring jug.  Be still my heart. This is beautiful and wow, what a conversation piece.  Made by the Reiss family from Austria for over 200 years, this one-liter measuring jug is both functional and something you can leave on the counter.  (Although, if I keep bringing you items each week that you can leave on your counter… you’re going to have to install a larger counter!) There is also a smaller measuring jug available, in pink.

5.

Weiner dog oil and vinegar set. Never again will you have to pull out that ho-hum pair of oil and vinegar glass bottles. At fourteen inches long, these little guys will do the trick, and neatly too.  Look at you, you will try anything to make that salad just a little more interesting.  I understand.

Happy foodie Friday!

I am always on the lookout for foodietabulous items so let me know if you found something you would like me to share.  Keep coming back!

Eat well, my friends. Eat well.

“Just like becoming an expert in wine–you learn by drinking it, the best you can afford–you learn about great food by finding the best there is, whether simply or luxurious. Then you savor it, analyze it, and discuss it with your companions, and you compare it with other experiences.” – Julia Child
