Kyocera Ceramics by Ami Kealoha
Kyocera makes a razor sharp line of ceramic kitchen utensils and knives that, only second in hardness to diamonds, retain their sharpness up to ten times longer than stainless and high-carbon steel blades. They never corrode, rust or transfer metallic flavors to foods. If you're not ready to invest in a new set of knives, consider one of the new eye-popping utensils such as the Wide Julienne Slicer, which will produce perfect string cuts. We also love the Ceramic Mega Peeler, which is great for peeling large and difficult-to-peel fruits and vegetables like squash and melons and can also be used for shaving chocolate or parmesan cheese. Both products are dishwasher-safe.

Prepara Herb-Savor
Although it's common knowledge that fresh ingredients yield the best results when cooking, the organic locally-grown herbs I bring home from the farmer's market always seem to wilt the second I close the refrigerator door. Replacing the old tin can-and-plastic bag method, Prepara's Prepara Herb-Savor prolongs the life of fresh herbs for up to three weeks keeping them encased with the ends submerged in...

Catamount Microwave Popcorn Popper
Avoid the oily mess, expense—and extra calories—with Catamount's microwave popcorn popper.
