kitchen gadget

Culinary helper device

A kitchen gadget is a small tool or device designed for a specific culinary task: a garlic press, an avocado slicer, an egg separator.

The term often carries a hint of frivolity—gadgets occupy the space between essential equipment and impulse purchases that end up forgotten in drawers.

The store was full of kitchen gadgets I didn't need.
