HEALTHWORKS<br />
LOW-PRESSURE COOKER<br />
The new HealthWorks Low-<br />
Pressure Speed Cooker offers<br />
safe pot-opening during cooking.<br />
Ingredients can be added and<br />
stirred, just like with a traditional pot.<br />
There is no need to wait for the<br />
pressure to release.<br />
The Low-Pressure Speed Cooker<br />
uses both pressure and trapped<br />
steam to cut down on cooking time,<br />
which saves energy and lets<br />
consumers quickly create healthy,<br />
delicious meals. The Low-Pressure<br />
Speed Cooker is energy-efficient—<br />
it has a hard-anodized aluminum<br />
body that heats the cooker evenly<br />
and quickly—and works up to<br />
30-percent faster than traditional<br />
cooking methods.<br />
Safety features are key on the Low-<br />
Pressure Speed Cooker: The knob<br />
on the lid features heat-resistant<br />
silicone, and the pressure regulator<br />
valves and safety valve keep<br />
pressure levels secure. The lid<br />
features a unique glass window with<br />
rolled edge to show cooking in<br />
progress and secure the glass under<br />
pressure. Silicone gaskets properly<br />
seal the lid to build low pressure.<br />
Suggested Retail Price:<br />
$29.99/6-quart; $39.99/8-quart<br />

LIFETIME BRANDS’<br />
ONE-HANDED MANDOLINE<br />
With a simple squeeze from just one<br />
hand, home chefs can quickly slice,<br />
grate or julienne vegetables and<br />
cheese using Lifetime Brands’ new<br />
One-Handed Mandoline Slicer. With<br />
the One-Handed Mandoline Slicer,<br />
there is no need for handling sharp<br />
knives. Simply select one of the three<br />
blades, place a vegetable or block of<br />
cheese into the food chamber and<br />
squeeze to shred or slice directly over<br />
a plate or a bowl.<br />
The One-Handed Mandoline Slicer<br />
is dishwasher safe, and it features an<br />
ergonomic handle for comfort. All of<br />
the stainless steel blades are safe<br />
and easy to change and clean<br />
because they are surrounded by<br />
durable ABS plastic. A blade storage<br />
case is also included.<br />
Suggested Retail Price: $19.99<br />

ISI NORTH AMERICA’S<br />
PRO TONGS<br />
Designed with the professional chef<br />
in mind and now available to home<br />
cooks, Pro Tongs by iSi North America<br />
are made of stainless steel and<br />
feature a work area with three<br />
different multifunctional edges.<br />
The smoothly scalloped edge is<br />
gentle for handling delicate foods,<br />
such as fresh fruits and pastries<br />
while avoiding perforating the food.<br />
A straight side allows for accurate<br />
control of small items and is great<br />
for precise tasks such as deboning<br />
fish filets. The jagged edge ensures<br />
a firm grasp of foods that can<br />
be difficult to pick up, such as<br />
sautéed vegetables or pasta.<br />
These tongs also open up into two<br />
different positions—a narrow<br />
position to handle large quantities<br />
or bigger food items. Available in<br />
three different sizes: 9-inch, 12-inch<br />
and 16-inch.<br />
Suggested Retail Price: $20-$30<br />
