Pasta Pots
This is what I currently have, made by Le Creuset. Perfect simple design for ease of use. The large pasta pot can also be used as a stock pot. A good multitasking pot.
When the pasta has cooked, all you have to do is lift the upper section up to drain the pasta from the cooking water immediately. No need anymore for a spaghetti fork or slotted spoon to try catch the last pieces of pasta swimming around. Life made easy!
Love this pasta pot by Bialetti. I had a colbolt blue one many years ago and would love to replace it again with the one above. So simple to use. No need to drain your pasta in a colander as you can strain the water from the pasta straight away with the perforated lid as soon as the pasta has reached the desired consistency. Perfect!!
Pasta Rollers

This is a must if you love making homemade pasta and lucky enough to possess a KitchenAid. So quick and easy to use you'll won't want to dismantle the pasta rollers from your mixer once you have them in place.
Lasagne sheets, tagliatelle and linguine can be made with so much ease.
Garlic Crusher

For me the Royal VKB garlic crusher is the best on the market. I've had so many different types including the traditional garlic press but found that if the many holes weren't cleaned correctly you were left with a strong taint of garlic lingering in a kitchen drawer, which is not very pleasant. This instead is a solid brushed stainless steel mini rolling pin with teeth, so you can press multiple cloves of garlic at a time. It has a flattened edge also so that you can crush garlic. Excellent also when you need large amounts of garlic in a recipe. The brushed stainless steel bar acts also as a steel soap under running cold water to rid your hands of the smell of garlic. Not forgetting, so so easy to clean... Excellent!
