Hello everyone it is Barry here welcome to my virgin kitchen hope you are well today
we are testing some more fun food gadgets now the majority of these today are ones where
you have sent me links and I have acquired them so yeah they are all your suggestions
hopefully you will like them, there is a huge amount of food gadgets in my kitchen right
now I am going to be giving some away so if you do not follow me on my twitter or facebook
page keep an eye on them as over the next few weeks and months I will be sending them
out to you guys for getting involved I guess but without further ado lets get on with our
first food gadget, this is a bike pizza cutter basically it is called a pizza cutter ride
fast over your pizza is the tagline and it is pretty self explanatory I guess hence the
picture right there we cut the pizza with a bike as you do but I quite like the idea
it has two blades on it and seems to have some sort of stand so lets get it out of the
box oh wow it is actually pretty good quality and it does indeed have a stand check that
out it does not feel cheap and nasty so these are the blades right here I have a pizza in
the oven lets see if it works.
It is a little too early for pizza it is 8 in the morning but nevermind we have taken
the bike off the stand I guess you do not want to go in too much I am going to ride
through the pizza ok I am reversing maybe should not do that.
I have done a couple of slices here folks and it is working really well you have to
dig it in first of all to get past the crust then push it through then the final back wheel
does some really decent slices so you can play with it cut the pizza then put it in
the stand once you are done so I think that is a cracking start too early for pizza for
me, is it ever too early for pizza?
No.
This thing I am really excited about not this thing this is a banana but this thing which
is obviously self explanatory it is a banana slicer now it may seem lazy but we must remember
like some of these other gadgets some people can struggle doing activities like this so
it can be useful indeed so lets peel the banana, there is our lovely banana now with this banana
slicer I was slightly confused because you have the stronger ridges and bits that would
cut this side but then this bit feels more comfortable but you turn it over and it is
all quite rough but I will go for this side anyway so we get a nice cut on it here we
go push down on the banana ok it kind of worked but it has opened it up even more.
Alright that did kind of work but I am just going to try the other side too so we have
the smooth side on it here we go lets push it down again oh wow that has gone through
much better push it out like little banana coins easy peasy fun gadget that.
Well so far my brunch is going to consist of pizza and banana so we may have some herbs
with that these are some gourmet herb scissors by goodqol sounds like a goblin I am really
quite excited about these they are multi bladed scissors I have seen images of these online
before but you guys asked me to get hold of them lets chuck this out there you go theres
the scissors I do not know what that is some sort of complimentary comb cover and there
we go multi bladed scissors chives are good for snipping one by one but when you can get
a bunch like this here we go nice and level and then we just snip oh brilliant look at
that they have buckled ok so the more you cut they fall out then you get your brush
thing to be honest that does save a lot of time and effort not completely ideal as they
get stuck in there but I actually really like those and will keep them so get hold of some
for yourself.
On the last gadget review you guys thought that the biscuit mug was a little bit pointless
check this out this is a self stirring mug yeah the height of laziness I have already
put the batteries in it it is a mug that stirs itself take the lid off coffee in there press
this button down I have already put the batteries in the compartment there that thing in there
spins around so lets see if it works.
I have my coffee granules here and the thing I do not get is you need a spoon anyway to
put the coffee in kind of defeating the point of not stirring as you have a spoon in your
hand anyhow we will go with it so get the water in there will add milk too and a bit
of sugar ok milk in again not going to stir it and as I like a bit of sugar teaspoon of
sugar in there and again I want to stick the spoon and stir but instead we are going to
press our stir button oh wow, oh jesus did you hear that noise I thought it was going
to blow up oh wow it has a foamy head on it suddenly turned into a pint of Guinness it
is quite cool I will give it that it does create a vortex look at that you just want
to jump in there don�t you that is addictive, that is actually quite cool but again pointless
lets see if it has worked though and mixed through I have washed it out already but not
the best coffee I have ever made.
Really sorry but this mug is addictive I could just stare at that all day anyhow the doorbell
just rang and another food gadget has arrived I was not going to show you this is like a
digital thermometer with an infa red laser beam number 2 so really good for tempering
chocolate if you want me to review it I will but you will just see it in future videos
so that is what that looks like but we do have another thing here lets move that out
the way this is a potato cutter I have just realised it says potato cutter nice because
on the other side it says kartoffelschneider is that right, it is a potato cutter basically
put a potato in there push it through that grate and it should come out with really cool
chips I love making my own chips and love making them chunky and rustic when you do
it yourself but on this thing using this it is potentially homemade mcdonalds territory
lets see if it works.
Ok I have just taken it out the wrapper and first thing that is a big old machine I am
happy about that as potatoes are pretty darn big so a that look at that thing that is a
beast we are going to push the potatoes through there so lets get the potato will not take
the skin off it we are going to go all like this and it must simply be a case of pushing
down on the shaft thing so let me change the angle here.
There we go that is a little bit better so you can see it now and we just press down
here we go haha I just sprayed chips all over the floor and now the dog is trying to eat
it hang on, look at this potato protest in the kitchen they look like chips lets see
if it worked they have sort of worked but they have been bowed they have a kink in it
like a rainbow lets make rainbow chips so there we go we will get rid of those as they
have been on the floor but look guys a self stirring mug wahey!
We will finish off this food gadget review with a flurry of kitchen gadgets that work
well together and remember if you have seen any fun gadgets you want me to review leave
me a link down below and I�ll gradually get hold of them as I say we have quite a
few so will bring the videos out every month or so right here to one side is a pan of water
I am bringing to a simmer just put some salt in that but it is all about the gadgets this
is a bowler hat colander why spend 50p on a standard colander when you can have a bowler
hat colander I will wash this but look you can wear it and feel like Charlie chaplin
that is pretty much it so a bit of a novelty gift I guess but we will use this to drain
off our spaghetti I cannot remember how much this was I will put it on the screen now but
I do not think it was that cheap, so quite a quirky gift if you have someone that likes
bowler hats so we need to measure out the spaghetti I am so hungry I could eat a horse
know that phrase we are going to eat a little bit of a horse as I do not have that much
spaghetti this is a spaghetti measurer, there we are then a piece of plastic really a spaghetti
measurer a horse is enough for 4 people as it is shopping day here we only have a little
spaghetti so I am going to show you what it would be like it would sit in there n fact
the drawing on the box does it well but you can measure out your pasta and slot that in
there and we can see near enough that is for one person so yeah bit of plastic with a horse
on it.
We are sticking the spaghetti on to cook and this brings us to our two other gadgets let
me show you how these work this is one I was sent called a banana handle ok and it is exactly
that it is a banana made of silicone and it is ideal if you have those pans where the
handle itself can get really hot or you shove it in the oven because it is silicone it can
stand really hot temperatures so all we do is slide it, it is getting a bit sensual slide
it on the pan if this was going into the oven it would be ideal but this is one of those
pans which stays cool anyway but then you can hold it like a banana it is quite a good
grip although I do not feel like I want to trust it apparently that is the way it is
supposed to go on but I do not know I do not trust that if you have a hot pan and holding
that I dunno.
And these things in fact I am not even sure what they are called in fact you can make
a human centipede out of them gets a bit kinky but they are just silicone men and I think
they just sit on the pan like that and are good because you can apparently let a bit
of steam out and crush the mans head just like that but any hot pans or bits and bobs
you want to rest and also use as an earplug or something like that they can high five
like that yo man they are rowing that is pretty much what they do there is something creepy
about that look anyhow our spaghetti is cooked lets drain it off with the bowler hat here
we go double wammy with the banana grip oh my gosh going to need a bigger bowl no that
is ok steamy steamy colander bowler hat shakey shakey spaghetti facial all done.
So there we are folks our gadget review for this time all done and dusted my favourite
without a doubt is the good old self stirring mug amazingly pointless but pointlessly amazing
at the same time, I just love it remember to subscribe if you have not already let me
know down below any more gadget suggestions and that is it I will see you again next time
