HOMELIFE has a new exclusive line of cooking gadgets and tools

Kitchens are often epicenters of clutter. Countless pots and pans fill the shelves, a host of cooking utensils lay scattered around the stove, some knives may be sitting on the counter. However, amid all that clutter, home chefs often find themselves with many tools that they never use. On top of that, there will be dishes that call for certain preparations that are not possible even with your myriad of pots and pans.

Depending on what types of cuisine you cook more often, this list might change. For example, we didn`t include a wok, but if you cook a lot of stir-fried vegetables, then a wok might be absolutely crucial in your day-to-day life.
