Chef Robotics has passed an important milestone: 100 million servings, defined as a portion of food that our robots deposit into a meal tray.

Chef Robotics has recently reached a remarkable milestone by completing 100 million servings in production, underscoring the company's commitment to innovation and the importance of automation in food manufacturing.

The PencilVac sufficed as a surface sweeper on rugs, but I found that even with the more powerful turbo mode activated, it left debris in the recesses of my textured doormats.

The Ring Lunch Box is a three-tier modular meal kit that flips the logic of how we think about everyday carry, making you wonder why nobody did this sooner.

The Le Creuset Stoneware Mini Fruit Cocotte is a 16-ounce cocotte that comes in blueberry, strawberry, and peach shapes. Each cocotte boasts impressive durability features, like hearty stoneware construction, thermal resistance up to 500 degrees, and a nonporous glaze on the surface for easy cleanup.

Using a warped one is among the worst mistakes you can use with a sheet pan: If the nice, flat pan becomes raised in some places, that's exactly where food will cook or bake unevenly.

One of the biggest mistakes you're making when loading your dishwasher is blocking the upper or lower spray arms from functioning. Tall items can also fall over during the cleaning cycle, preventing water from the lower spray arms or detergent from the door from reaching all of the dishes.

According to the U.S. Department of Energy, a new ENERGY STAR certified dishwasher saves more than 8,000 gallons of water per year compared to hand-washing - and uses less than half the energy.

Sometimes the best designs come from asking a simple question nobody bothered to ask before. For designer Kathleen Reilly, that question was: why does a knife always have to lie flat on the table? The answer came in the form of Oku, a table knife that literally hangs around the edges of your plates and boards thanks to a unique folded handle that defies centuries of Western tableware convention.

If you've ever mixed something vigorously in a large bowl during a cooking project, you have probably experienced the universal frustration of a tilting, wobbly bowl. Maybe you're whipping cream by hand, whisking a vinaigrette, or even just beating eggs for a casual, but perfect, omelette, and notice the bowl starts migrating across the counter. There are some low-tech workarounds, like a damp towel or a silicone mat slipped underneath the bowl. Neither works terribly well, especially with super-slippery granite countertops.

Whether you've lost the lid to your favorite pan or you're trying to use less plastic wrap in your kitchen, silicone lids can play an important role in your kitchen routine. Some of these lids are large enough to cover a pan on the stove, preventing excess moisture from escaping. Others are smaller and are ideal for covering cups, bowls, and food storage containers that don't have tops.

But once food has carbonized and bonded to metal, the issue is mechanical, and you need something to physically break the residue apart. Eggshells are mostly composed of calcium carbonate, the same mineral found in chalk and limestone - you've probably encountered it in your toothpaste, too. When crushed into a powder, these shells become a mild abrasive, which can gently sand down the grime.
