Sponsored Fresh from a successful launch of their Kickstarter campaign, ESPRO is excited to introduce the Bloom Pour Over Coffee Brewer, a pour-over system that releases the full potential of your coffee in just two minutes. The Bloom Pour Over Coffee Brewer brings out the true flavor of your coffee—unlike any other manual coffee maker on the market. With other pour-over brewers, you can often experience bitterness from over-extraction or weak flavor from under-extraction. But the Bloom Pour Over brewer has a deep brew bed and a micro-filter that will evenly distribute water for better and more even coffee extraction. (That means much more enjoyable coffee, every time.) What's more to love? The Bloom Pour Over Coffee Brewer offers environmentally friendly filters and quick and easy cleanup—perfect for busy mornings on the go. Thanks to the Bloom Pour Over, it couldn’t be easier to brew a delicious cup of cafe-quality coffee at home. Simply add coffee, pour in hot water, and enjoy whenever and wherever you want.

How to sharpen your knives
Ditch the dull! No images? Click here How to Sharpen a Knife With a WhetstoneThere is nothing more frustrating in the kitchen than a dull knife. Not only does it make prep work a chore and your finished product less attractive, but it's also downright dangerous. A dull blade requires more pressure to cut into a food, and can easily slip off of a tough onion skin and into your finger. Ouch. That's where we come in. Get yourself some whetstones (also commonly referred to as waterstones), follow the instructions, and practice. You won't believe the difference a sharp knife can make in your cooking. No whetstones? No problem! Dull Knife? No Sharpener? Grab a Mug This method creates a new edge that is relatively symmetrical, and it's remarkably effective. Within 30 seconds, you can transform a knife that could barely hack through a potato into one that can effortlessly slice a tomato. Time to hone! Now, hone your skills! Need a new knife? We've got you |

Use pantry staples for simple, homemade ramen noodles
No images? Click here Easy Homemade Ramen NoodlesThese bouncy ramen noodles have a delightfully chewy texture and can be made with little more than all-purpose flour and baking soda. We developed this recipe specifically because our other recipes for ramen noodles both rely on bread flour, which seems to be in short supply during this pandemic. So we’ve come up with a relatively simpler approach to homemade alkaline noodles for use in ramen and mazemen. It’s a big step up from dehydrated instant noodles—which are frankly best suited for the broth packets they're shipped with—and an excellent project for those in self-isolation. All told, it’s pretty straightforward if you have a manual pasta roller or stand mixer attachment and some time on your hands. The kitchen essential Digital Kitchen Scale Accurately measuring your ingredients with a digital scale ensures consistency in your handmade noodles. More of Sho's recipes! |
