Culinary helper devices

Kitchen gadgets are small tools and devices designed for specific food preparation tasks: garlic presses, avocado slicers, egg separators, melon ballers.

The term often carries a hint of frivolity—useful inventions mixed with unitaskers that clutter drawers: My kitchen is full of gadgets I never use.

Distinguished from essential equipment like knives and pans.
