		<description><![CDATA[This boat-shaped Ahoi Citrus Juicer from Koziol is pretty cool. It comes in four different transparent colors, and I think it would be perfect for kids. The boat&#8217;s hold captures all the juice, and the pointed bow and stern act as a spout to easily pour juice without a mess.
I already have a very good [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[From Normann Copenhagen comes this round chop knife by Italian designers Paolo Lucidi and Luca Pevere. The chopper is similar in concept to a mezzaluna and would be good at chopping herbs, veggies, chocolate, cheese, and maybe even pizza. Mezzaluna-like knives can be safer to start kids on, and this round chopper has the added benefit [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Garlic can be somewhat difficult for kids to manage. The thin skin can be hard to get off, cutting with a knife isn&#8217;t so wise, and even garlic presses can require a lot of force to squeeze. And this is only if they can handle the smell. A lot of adults don&#8217;t care for garlic [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have been on the lookout for kids cooking equipment, and I have found several good options for whisks out there. At first I tried out some inexpensive RSVP Mini-Whisks (2 for $5), but while they were definitely child-sized, they seemed smaller than they needed to be. Small isn&#8217;t bad, but a common 8 or [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I recently picked up at Williams-Sonoma the Chef&#8217;n Stemgem Strawberry Huller, and I must say that it works pretty well. I am not a gadget person at all, so I was rather surprised at how easily it worked. You simply push the green button to extend the prongs, insert it into the strawberry, and then [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Another stop I made yesterday was at Crate&#38;Barrel, and they had some neat cookware for kids. With that said, it was more expensive than IKEA, but that is to be expected I guess.
The first item was this set of mini cupcake spatulas. You can find similar items from Le Creuset and Williams-Sonoma, but they are [...]]]></description>

My daughter received a real set of matryoshka dolls when she was younger, and she was fascinated by them for years. The M Cups &#8212; as they are called &#8212; are [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[For years I have used regular wooden spoons while cooking and never though much about them. I usually purchased them at Target or some similar store, but I also didn&#8217;t feel they were great quality. Six months ago, however, my cooking spoons improved greatly when I purchased a Berard olivewood spoon from Sur La Table.

Usually, I have heard good reports on it, the Amazon ratings are high, and the product is relatively cheap. Essentially, I get to satisfy my curiosity and there is no regret if [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The USDA has longadvocated cooking pork to an internal temperature of 160 degrees, which cooks the meat to medium doneness, but now many chefs are cooking it only to 140-145 degrees, which is medium-rare. The concern for a long time has come from a parasitic disease called trichinosis that is caused when trichinae (a type [...]]]></description>
