Kitchen appliances are now so smart. They can do all the work for you! All you have to do is load them up, tell them what you want, and press go. They’ve even got their own apps so you’ll be alerted when the food’s ready or be able to schedule when you’ll need the food prepared by or reschedule if you’re going to be home later than expected. For example, there’s an oven that doubles as a fridge so you can put your dinner in it in the morning—and then it switches to oven mode in time, so your food is ready to eat when you come home at night. There’s a machine that makes you yogurt overnight, an oven that makes you delicious gourmet cookies on demand, a no-mess dairy-free milk maker, and more! If your kitchen were equipped with everything on this list, you’d save hours in the kitchen and have delicious, fresh food that you made yourself without having to do barely any work!
CHiP
You can have freshly baked gourmet cookies in 10 minutes sans the mess of preparation or preheating with the CHiP Smart Cookie Oven. The inventors of CHiP wanted to make baking easier for people, and they narrowed in on making cookie baking fool-proof.
The machine can sense the internal temperature throughout the baking process so you can customize your cookie preferences to chewy, classic, or crunchy. The company also makes doughs so you can just scan the package, drop the dough in the tray, press start, and voila! You can also use your own dough, and CHiP will help you bake those cookies perfectly too. Or there’s a manual mode that you can customize the time and temperature and even save the settings under a name for any time you make those cookies again.
If you use CHiP’s gourmet cookie dough, there’s no mess of bowls and measuring cups/spoons. And don’t worry about the environmental impact of that packaging because they’ve used environmentally friendly biodegradable parchment paper wrappers. They even have gluten-free, vegan, and sugar-free options!
Don’t want your cookies yet? You can set the oven to start baking anytime within four hours of placing the dough into CHiP. It will begin to cook, then cool down at precisely the right time and even keep the finished morsels warm for up to two hours.
When the cookies have been devoured, the only thing that needs to be cleaned is the removable Non-Stick PFOA and PTFE-Free Baking Tray, which is 10″ and dishwasher-safe for a minimal clean-up baking experience.
Suvie
Suvie might just be the ultimate kitchen appliance. It is a WiFi-enabled countertop multi-zone cooking and refrigeration robot. It was designed by a former Apple engineer who is also a gourmet chef and appliance expert. Only fresh, raw ingredients are used to prepare healthy, restaurant-quality meals for you—ready when you come home.
Most people don’t have the time to be in the kitchen preparing meals made from fresh ingredients. That’s why the Suvie system was created—to make a better and easier way to feed yourself and your family.
There’s even the option of fully customizable Suvie Smart Meal kits that can be delivered to your home, thus eliminating the need to shop, prep, and cook! All you have to do is load four independent food compartments (protein, vegetables, starches, and sauces), add water, and schedule when you want to eat. The rest is up to Suvie. It keeps your food refrigerated until it’s time to cook. If you don’t want to use the premade meals, you can use your own ingredients and just put them in the designated compartments. Suvie understands cook times and temperatures and will adjust accordingly to whatever you put into each chamber.
The Suvie app can be used from anywhere to control scheduling and scheduling if you’re going to be home later or earlier than expected. If the foods were already cooking, you could use the app to tell Suvie to keep your meal warm for you. It also shows you your food in real-time and lets you know how much time is left and when it’s ready. Even the humble microwave is due for this kind of rethink, and Japanese engineers are already replacing it with smarter ways to cook.
Almond Cow
Make homemade almond milk in only 30 seconds without the hassle or the mess of blending and straining the milk through filter bags with the Almond Cow. This machine is an adaptation of a blender explicitly designed for hard tree nuts, like almonds. It works by dicing up the nuts with a durable stainless-steel blade while simultaneously circulating water rapidly through the pulp. As it does this, the water picks up the nutrients present in the nuts, and milk flows out of the filter cup. At the end of the process, you have 1/3 liters of delicious, ready-to-drink, dairy-free milk.
Making almond (or other) milk at home is better for your health (because you know there are no additives and it’s fresh), and it’s better for the environment because it didn’t have to be shipped cross-country from farm to your fridge. It’s also cheaper.
Yomee
Homemade yogurt has never been so natural. The Yomee is an automatic yogurt maker – all you have to do is add milk and a Yomee pod to the machine at night to enjoy fresh, healthy yogurt in the morning. There are also vegan and lactose-free versions to make 100% dairy-free yogurts. For those, just use a dairy-free pod together with almond, coconut, rice, or soy milk.
Studies show that yogurt boosts the immune system, strengthens bones, and maximizes heart health. And on top of that, it’s delicious and convenient. By making it at home, you know there are no preservatives, added sugars, or artificial flavors, which cancel out the food’s amazing natural benefits! It’s also 70% cheaper to make it with Yomee than it is to buy premade store yogurts.
Yomee comes with an app so you can tell it which type of yogurt you want (thick Greek-style yogurt, a traditional plain yogurt, or a smoothie-style stirred yogurt) and when you want it by. Each pod makes two servings, and the double-wall insulated cup will keep your yogurt fresh on the go. It even has a lid that lets you store two toppings separately. The app contains hundreds of recipes, so you’ll never run out of ways to eat your homemade yogurt.
Are you concerned about your environmental impact? The pods are 100% natural and wholly soluble, so there’s zero waste for a healthier planet.
