Cooking at Home

There’s no question that today’s pandemic is re-shaping our behaviors and it’s no secret any longer that spending more time at home has created the need to form new habits, whether that’s learning to take better care of ourselves by investing in home healthcare equipment or setting up a more permanent-yet-comfortable home office setting.

Even before the pandemic, however, it was commonly regarded that cooking more at home was part of a healthy lifestyle. Today, cooking at home for many is a requirement. But learning new behaviors – especially how to cook, when one is used to others doing the cooking – doesn’t have to be something to be endured. Rather, it can be viewed as an investment in one’s wellness, not only physically, but mentally and emotionally. For many, cooking has been known to relieve stress. For those living with a hectic schedule, the pandemic has converted the cooking-adverse into cooking advocates.

If cooking still seems a daunting task, there are several items that can transform one’s kitchen from a neglected fueling station to a fun-filled family gathering spot — none of which require the skills of a celebrity chef!

As Autumn nears, there’s no better preparation for the winter than making one’s own pomodoro sauce.The Italian Electric Tomato Press processes 9 lbs. of cooked tomatoes in one minute (it automatically strains out seeds, peels, and pulp), making the sauce ready for slow-cooking without the extra prep.

The only proof needed to verify one’s sauce is indeed superior is when another person dredges a chunk of freshly baked bread to soak up all the caramelized goodies contained therein!The Foolproof Bread Maker is a good way to fill a home with heavenly aroma by baking over 100 combinations of bread and other confections.

These are just two of many problem-solving products you’ll find on our website that make today’s stay-at-home reality a pleasurably – and healthy – cook-at-home lifestyle.
