Get the Scoop by Evan Orensten
The Nuscüp, that is. We love this new multi-function measuring cup, designed by Pollen Design (designers of the Rabbit corkscrew) for the Swiss kitchenwares company Dalla Piazza.
It is easy to use, ergonomic, and very sturdy. Your thumb controls the amount by easily moving the slide up and down. The cup holds both liquid and dry ingredients, and includes ml (30-140), liquid oz (1-4), tbsp (2-9) and cup (1/8-1/2) measurements. It has a magnet so it can be easily mounted on the fridge or other surface, comes apart for easy cleaning. Other sizes are promised.
From $10-$15. Available online at Sur La Table and other retailers.

Double Balloon Whisk
While fancy electric mixers costing hundreds show up on many a bride-to-be's registry, cream whipped by hand has a more velvety texture and just tastes better. Any cook with an overdeveloped forearm will appreciate the ingenious design of these Kuhn Rikon whisks. By simply doubling the number of wires, the stainless steel beater cuts down whisking time by half. Available in 10" and 12"...

TheFoodLoop
Florence Fabricant wrote about TheFoodLoop in yesterday's New York Times and it's a great little invention: A simple worm-like heat-resistant reusable silicone fastener that you use to keep food together when you cook it. Unlike string or other fasteners, it doesn't break, stick, dry out or burn. Oven safe to 675ºF, expandable by linking multiple loops together, and dishwasher safe, it's time to throw...

With their help, scallions or other fresh herbs can instantly transform into a manageable, chopped pile. This take on herb snips features five three-inch stainless steel blades stacked on each silicone-coated arm. And although they'll likely remain in the arsenal of only the most pampered chefs,...
