The Phoenix Cooktop - Blackboard Meets Retractable Hood
The Buechele Phonix is a stove top design that has a retractable hood. There are two sides to this design - on one side there's a recirculating vent, the other, a warmer. On the back? A blackboard for leaving notes to those people in your kitchen life. We love the simple yet functional design paired with actual cooking action instead of a single cooking function that seems to dominate the design.

Peach Pitter
My kids seems to only like peaches if they are sliced, so this could save me some time. I wonder if an apple corer would work as well. But if you want a dedicated peach pitter, this tool turns whole peaches and nectarines into 12 uniform slices. Includes a plastic cover for safe storage.

Sure - we have lots of bottle openers - but not a lightsaber bottle opener for the kitchen. If you need to bring out that inner chef and jedi in yourself, pop open a cool one while cooking with probably the coolest bottle opener this side of Naboo.

Magimix Cuisine System
I love an appliance that multitasks, and this Magimix cuisine system seems to be all the rage in food processors/mixers right now. The Magimix is a food processor, mixer, citrus press, juice extractor, mandoline slicer, grater, mini chopper, and blender all in one. Is that all? It can't walk the dog and put the kids to bed? It comes with a double blade and discs, a dough blade, 3 preparation bowls, spatula, storage case, storage holder, citrus press, cream whipper, and juice extractor.

Microplane Herb Mill
This looks like a great way to mince a lot of fresh herbs. You place herbs in the mill and then twist the handle. The blades mince the herbs quickly. I wonder whether it would work for garlic too? It is dishwasher safe for easy cleaning.

All you need is a counter, projector, and a little math - and bam - touchscreen countertops in your kitchen according to new work and research at Intel.
"There's nothing absolutely special about the surface, and it doesn't matter if your hands are dirty," says Beverly Harrison, a senior research scientist at Intel. "Our algorithm and a camera set-up can create virtual islands everywhere"
The project uses real-time 3-D object recognition to build a model of almost anything that's placed on the counter and offer a a virtual, touchscreen-based menu. For instance, when you put a slab of meat on the counter or a green pepper, they are identified, and a virtual menu that includes recipes for both are shown.

TOASTit Teflon Toaster Bags - Grilled Cheese in a Toaster
Made from teflon, TOASTit bags cleverly take advantage of teflon's heat resistance to force your toaster to accept more than just toast, and allow you to make things like grilled cheese, roast chicken, and grilled vegetables. The bags look about standard toast-size, measuring 6.2 x 7.9 inches (16 x 20 cm). They can withstand temperatures of up to 260℃, and can be easily cleaned using soap and water or inside your dishwasher.
Oishi & Associates has TOASTit listed as 840 yen (or about $9.20) for a pack of two bags. For the rest of us outside of Japan who would like to order, you can find them available on Amazon.

I'm always on the lookout for new garlic implements. This seems pretty simple to use. You fill the chopper with garlic and then roll the gadget around the kitchen. The chopped garlic is stored in a separate compartment, so your hands don't smell like garlic. It is dishwasher safe as well.
