October’s Kitchen Gadget of the Month
October is here: and with it comes the chill of the autumn air. When the cold mornings and dark evenings start to draw in, there’s nothing better than preparing some homely comfort foods in solid wood kitchens to warm up your insides.
The Stirio auto pot stirrer from Norwegian kitchen experts Unikia is perfect for all ‘one-pot wonders’. With this kitchen gadget, never again will your porridge, stews or risottos stick to the bottom of the pan. It comes with a handy charging station, and has the option of two stirring speeds.
With a rechargeable battery (good for around 45 minutes of stirring), an adjustable head to fit any sized pot from 16 up to 28cm, the Stirio stirrer is easy to use and clean – it can be totally dismantled so can even go in a dishwasher.
There have been similar products available previously, but none that we have seen are quite as simplistic and versatile as the Stirio. It also won a prestigious Reddot Design Award in 2014, meaning it has been given an approving nod from a board of independent designers.
The Unikia Stirio retails for £39.99 direct from Unikia, but if you shop around, it can be found for £28.99 from IWantOneOfThose.com and a variety of other websites.
Have you tried the Stirio? If not is there any other kitchen gadget you simply cannot live without? We would love to hear your comments on either our Facebook page, Google+ page or on Twitter.
