It’s easy to overlook the kitchen gadgets you commonly use. A cooling rack is just a rack for cooling cookies. No biggie, right? Wrong. Because some kitchen must-haves have uses beyond their primary purpose. You’ll be surprised by what more they can do. Let’s find out.

1

Thick Wire Cooling Rack

You’ve probably seen this thick wire cooling rack used to make perfectly sized avocados for guacamole. But that’s not all it can do to make your life in the kitchen easier. Use it to turn a hand mixer into a stand mixer in seconds. Just pass the attachments through the rack, secure to the hand mixer, then place the cooling rack with the hand mixer over your mixing bowl. Voila! Hands-free mixing. Pretty cool for a cooling rack, eh? Definitely a great addition to your kitchen arsenal.

Natural Bamboo Skewers

Perfect for your BBQ and kitchen needs, these natural bamboo skewers are thick enough to handle heavier foods, and their sharp tips make grilling a breeze. Made from 100% bamboo, they’re an eco-friendly alternative to plastic. They’re also the perfect tool to get as much lemon juice as you need while preserving the rest for later. Using the sharp tip of the skewer, poke a hole at the end of a lemon and squeeze. With the lemon still intact (well, almost), it stays fresh for longer. Rinse and repeat the next time you need lemon juice.

Wide Mouth Tulip Jar

Sourdough enthusiasts are obsessed with this wide mouth tulip jar and for good reason. The thick, sturdy glass ensures durability, while the wide mouth design makes it easy to mix and clean. The included clips secure the lid, keeping your sourdough starter fresh. But that’s not all this jar can do. It’s also your best friend for making perfectly peeled hard-boiled eggs. Place your eggs in the jar, add a bit of water, replace the lid, and shake it like you just don’t care. Well, until all the peel comes off. It’s the ultimate hack for hands-free egg peeling.
