An Automatic Stirrer


By David Ponce

You know those recipes that tell you “Stir often”? Well, they really put a cramp on your ability to multitask. I, for one, would enjoy being able to watch the game, while simultaneously making myself a delicious risotto, or some custard.

So, I’m really considering spending $20 for this, the “Stir-Chef Hands-Free Stirrer”. Simply place on your pan, turn on, and forget.

Come inside for the full specs.

    I think "cooks Illustrated" tested one of those gadgets and found it seriously lacking. If I recall correctly, I don't think it was the solution to the constant stirring instructions for many risottos and polenta recipes.
  • I had one of those. It fell into the pot and exploded.

    i bought one for making of the custard which requires CONSTANT stirring and it worked great!
