Measuring sticky ingredients like peanut butter or honey—or even solids like shortening—can be a real pain. But this adjustable Oxo measuring cup will save you time that would otherwise be spent scraping every last bit of peanut butter from the measuring cup.

Using the turning knob, the plunger inside the cup adjusts to your desired measurement marking. From there, you fill the cup with your ingredient and use the knob to push it directly into your mixing bowl, with the plunger acting as a squeegee to get out every last bit. It can also be used for wet and dry ingredients, eliminating the need for a whole cacophony of measuring cups cluttering the kitchen.

I always dread chopping herbs–I inevitably end up with little pieces all over my countertop, and it can be a surprisingly time-consuming task. These handy scissors have five sharp blades, allowing you to chop fresh herbs directly over your food. And for cleanup, they come with a small brush to remove residue after each use; simply toss it in the dishwasher afterwards.

Multiple reviewers rave about how easy they make it to cut multiple green onions, and one five-star reviewer said, “I use them for everything in the kitchen and do not know what I did without them in the past.”

Dreamfarm is known for creating innovative gadgets that solve common kitchen problems, and I’ve tried a few of their products with great success. The brand dubs its Supoon “the world’s best cooking spoon,” which has a flat silicone scraping tip with flexible squeegee sides for getting up every last bit along with a spoon-shaped dip. You can use it to scrape, measure, stir, mix, and scoop, all from the same spoon.

One reviewer says they bought multiple to make sure they always have one on hand while cooking: “They scrape every last bit out of the container.” The spoon even comes with measuring lines for a teaspoon and tablespoon, saving you from having to dirty another utensil.

For anyone with grip-strength challenges—or, really, anyone who occasionally finds themselves wrestling with a stubborn jar—this multiuse opener is a must-have. It comes with eight different-sized grips to open bottles and jars of all sizes, as well as a hook on the top to open ring-pull cans or break the airtight seal. The rubber lining provides a secure grip on lids, and one reviewer calls it the best opener they’ve ever used, noting that it’s especially helpful for their husband with Parkinson’s. “It holds jars securely while you hold the jar in the other hand,” they shared. “With slots that fit various sizes of jars, I’ve not found a jar that it cannot accommodate.”
