Oxox Good Grips Will Make Your Life Easy
When reviewing this month’s super tools for the kitchen, the Oxo Good Grips line grabbed our attention as top-of-the-line kitchen tools. Oxo tools are innovative in design and include such features as soft rubber grips, user-friendly design, and a great deal of functionality. We enjoyed using these products so much in our own kitchens that we’ve listed our top five Oxo Good Grips products in this article to share with you.
1. Angled measuring cups: Simple and practical! These measuring cups allow accurate measurement with the ease of viewing by looking straight down into the cup. The measurement ticks on the side of the cup are clear and easily distinguishable and the innovative design is practical and easy to use. It also is visually stimulating and an attractive addition to any kitchen.
2. Snap-lock can opener: we really enjoyed using this unique can opener. To begin opening a can, just gently squeeze the opener - with a snap, it locks onto the can. After you’re done, just press the lock and it will open with a second snap. Not only is this can opener functional and fun to use, but it also is a boon to anyone (such as people with arthritis or with small hands) who struggles to have a tight enough grip to keep a can opener closed.
3. Fat separator: separates fat from any liquid, using a devices that looks like a measuring cup. Heat-resistant,, the fat separator can easily de-grease gravy and hot soups. The device has a rubber stopper on the spout that prevents fat from leaking out the spout’s top. It also includes a strainer to catch food particles that you’d also like to keep out of the final product.
4. Folding cutting boards. Oxo Good Grips presents this handy new innovation. It’s made of polypropylene to withstand higher temperatures. But the best part is you can fold it up so it takes up less storage space! And for safety, it includes rubber panels on the sides so it doesn’t move or slip while you prepare foods.
5. Manual slicers are available in either the mandolin or julienne varieties. They are readily gripped because they possess excellent handles. They will prepare thinly cut fruit or vegetables very quickly. The area around the blade is transparent allowing you to see precisely what is being cut. One has the choice of slicing on a flat surface or hooking the slicer over a dish.
