Outfitting your galley with a few groovy gadgets means less preparation and more recreation. We’ve rounded up some faves to whet the appetite afloat…
From clockwise, top left:
1. Bodum Chambord Shatterproof French Press
– known as the original French Press, the Chambord offers the purest coffee extraction, allowing your palate to experience the full essence of the bean. This Chambord is the same patented design, yet with a boat-friendly shatter-resistant carafe. 8 cup capacity shown.
2. Magefesa Practika Pressure Cooker Set
– Pressure cooking is the cruisers’ culinary secret weapon — greatly reducing cooking time and saving considerable cooking fuel. The Magefesa, highly recommended by those “in the know”, has a stainless steel construction, nonstick interior, four advanced safety features and three cooking levels. This particular set includes the most popular 4 and 6 quart sizes.
3. Pampered Chef Food Chopper
– knives and rough seas certainly don’t mix, nor do rounded veggies on a cutting board. Keep the food in its place (and retain your digits) by using a plunge-style food chopper. The original Pampered Chef model, shown above, has stainless steel rotating blades and a flexible lid that can double as a cutting surface (or, if you’re more of the exciting life type, the as-see-on-tv Slap Chop
also does the trick, however you’re forewarned to buy a spare).
4. Breville Cordless Hand Blender
– aptly referred to as the “boat motor”, this hand blender whips potatoes, purees soups, blends drinks, and can even save a lumpy gravy. Comes with patented smoothie attachment and mixing jar. Uses long-lasting NiMH rechargeable batteries (included)
5. Joseph Joseph Uni-tool
– multi-functional is the way to go, this 5 in 1 tool from design team Joseph Joseph has the cooking tasks covered. This single tool is a slotted spoon, flexible spatula, cutting edge, food turner and tablespoon. Dishwasher safe, heat resistant to 480°F.
6. Progressive International Collapsible Bowl Set
– collapsible or nesting cookware is an obvious choice, but this prep bowl set takes (and makes) the cake. The three handy sizes (1.5, 3 & 5 cup) collapse to 1/3 in size, have lids for storage and are microwave, freezer and dishwasher safe.
