“Put that emotion in the food, because it’s so much more rewarding down the line”; says Hell’s Kitchen celebrity chef Gordon Ramsey. Cooking has become such a habitual ritual that we rarely put in the extra effort for gourmet meals. Blame it on time constrains or pressures of life, but home-cooking has undergone major transformations, demanding serious changes in our kitchen too. The future foresees requirement for tools that will comply with our instant-food needs, helping us to whip up tasty treats in a jiffy. The future requires designers like you to come up with kitchen tool solutions today!Designs that offer sustainable tools and techniques that comply with our evolving lifestyles, demographics, cultural expectations and economics.

Can you rise to the challenge of creating new kitchen tools and techniques, cross-pollinating from other cultures, or perfecting our tried-and-true tools, improving the cook’s experience while prepping, cooking or serving?
