NOVATO, Calif., Dec. 4, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- There are many ways to flavor a dish, so lighten up on the sugar, salt and butter by exploring healthy alternatives for culinary pleasure. Here are quick and easy tips (http://tinyurl.com/nddrc95) from Kuhn Rikon for adding taste, not calories, to meals.
Enhance salads and side dishes with flourishes of fruits and veggies with the Box Mandoline and Grater. It yields thin slices or julienne strips of zucchini, cucumber, carrots, lemons, apples and more – and can also grate garlic and ginger for stir-fry or citrus for refreshing desserts.
Enjoy a variety of fresh herbs using Kuhn Rikon Kitchen Shears. Its spring action makes these shears highly effective and gentle on the hands. Sheath keeps blades sharper longer and provides safe storage.
Swiss-made Kuhn Rikon Pressure Cookers cut cooking times by up to 70 percent – for enhanced flavor, nutrition and texture. With ultra-fast cooking under pressure, healthy recipe options are endless, from soups and stocks to veggies, beans, rice, poultry and side dishes. All Kuhn Rikon pressure cookers feature high precision pressure valve and multiple safety features.
Chop, mince or puree healthy dips, sauces, soups and desserts in seconds with the Swiss Pull Chop. Just place ingredients in the container and pull a few times on the lid mechanism, and then you're done. Makes fresh salsa in six quick pulls, and can chop food coarse, medium or fine. Non-slip base holds it steady.
Add the finishing touch of flavor with the Kuhn Rikon Ratchet Grinder (http://tinyurl.com/mt8yxph), for peppercorns, salt, rosemary, cardamom, fennel seeds, lavender and other dried spices. This high performance ratchet mechanism with a ceramic stone grinder makes it easier to use, requiring less effort or dexterity. Simply push a lever back and forth to release flavor fast.
