Practical kitchen helpers: what do you really need?

Good kitchen helpers do not have to be large, electric or complicated. Often small tools save time on recurring tasks – preparing, baking and cleaning afterwards.

Which kitchen helpers are really practical?

Utensils that are used regularly and can perform several tasks are particularly useful. Examples include dough scrapers, fine kitchen sieves, sturdy cutting boards and reusable cleaning aids.

For baking: small helpers with a big effect

A flexible dough scraper helps scrape bowls and divide and shape dough. A small fine sieve is useful for precise dusting with flour, cocoa or icing sugar. For pizza, see Make pizza: practical helpers.

Cleaning is part of kitchen work

After bread, pizza or cake dough, sticky residue often remains. Conventional sponges can themselves become clogged with dough. The Teiger® cleaning cloth has an open mesh structure and was developed for removing dough residue and other stubborn dirt.

A kitchen helper should also be easy to clean

Frequently used utensils should be easy to keep clean. Teiger® can be rinsed under running water and, for more thorough cleaning, cleaned in the dishwasher or washing machine.
