A kitchen is a place that has tons of available gadgets, all of which are supposed to allow you to cook different meals, prepare different ingredients, and generally make your life easier.
Many people don’t buy these gadgets on their own, because they don’t want to spend the money on something that they’re not sure of. They justify it because they’re doing just fine cooking how they are now. However, once you have that one magical appliance that changes everything, you’ll wonder how you were cooking without it before. One such device that makes for a great gift is a multi-cooker.
Multi-Cooker
These are large cooking appliances capable of doing tons of things, from slow roasting to frying, and even pressure cooking. With so many different functions, and while being able to be cleaned and stored fairly easily, this is a no-brainer gift for anyone with a kitchen.
Coffeemaker
Another kitchen appliance worth considering is a new coffeemaker. Anyone who drinks coffee regularly probably has had the same one for many years now, meaning it’s probably dirty and not producing coffee very well.
You can either spring for the same type of coffeemaker or get a different one entirely. If they normally drink drip coffee, get them a French press or an espresso maker, something to change up their normal routine a little bit.
Rice Cookers
Recently, rice cookers have become more popular than ever before. People aren’t fond of the mediocre instant rice and stovetop rice that they’re used to, but by taking the same amount of time and using a rice cooker, they’re getting much better results.
Stand Mixer
Another versatile kitchen gadget worth looking at is a stand mixer. They can be used for all kinds of different things and help avoid the process of getting your counter all dirty in the process of making dough.
Hopefully, these will give you some ideas if you are looking for gifts for the kitchen!

My current kitchen is teeny- so most of these appliances lack appeal. Moreover, I still love my Melitta filter system and cook my rice in a pot on a slow boil.

That makes sense. I went through and bought a lot of kitchen gadgets when I finished my residency. I do still boil our rice on occasion instead of breaking out the rice cooker! LOL

These are nice kitchen items that I’m sure many cooks would enjoy. It’s funny that I don’t happen to own any of them. I’m very old school when it comes to cooking I guess. I think I’d like some of these, but since we live off grid, the power we’d use makes me wonder if it’s worth it.
I’ve always thought the stand mixers are neat. So many pretty new colors!
God bless!

I have had my Kitchen Aid Stand Mixer for 20+ years. It is standing to show the wear so I will likely need a new one soon. They are fun for a lot of different things…

I haven’t been very active in the kitchen lately. My gadgets are gathering dust. I have to admit though, looking at these shiny insta pots create the illusion of my becoming this meal planning domestic goddess….
Dominique
I still haven’t really used my InstaPot yet but I am looking at the InstaPot multicooker and thinking of what I could do if I had more time…

I love the idea of a mixer but don’t know if I’d have room for it 🙁 Maybe someday. Thanks for the great ideas even though a want a bunch for me, lol.
Dominique
I want some of these for me too!

Those stand mixers look amazing. I got a cheap coffee maker from a big box store when I moved here and the pot broke the first time I used it. 🙁
These will make some happy people on Christmas morning!
