Gourmia is famous for their kitchen accessories and we have actually covered a few including their Multi Cooker, GSV140 Sous Vide, and various others. The company sent us their GMS100 Electric Mandolin Slicer and GGL9910 Gas Lighter to review so if you’re looking for a great gift for the holiday season, then you should continue reading.
If you’re a huge fan of Sous Vide, but hate having to still put your meats into a cast iron pan to brown, you should certainly check out Gourmia’s GGL9910 Gas Lighter. Essentially a multipurpose kitchen torch, the Butane lighter is built to allow you to sear your meats to perfection, or if you are a fan of Creme Brûlée you can even give your favorite treat that extra glaze. You’ll have to purchase your own Butane fuel separately, but luckily the GGL9910 lighter works with many of the brand names of fuel from Amazon, unlike others that I’ve tried on the market.
One thing I was concerned about with the Gas Lighter is flame control. If you are concerned about storage of the lighter using, you’ll be happy to know that Gourmet has included a nozzle that has both a soft and jet mode that requires you to press the trigger and safety lock in order to operate. This will make you feel so much better storing the GGL9910 Gas Lighter in a cabinet or drawer. Available for only $39.99, the Gourmet GGL9910 Gas Lighter can be purchased directly from here.
Next is Gourmia’s Electric Mandolin Slicer, which I love!
Prior to receiving the Electric Slicer, I suffered with a cheap food dicer I purchased on Black Friday for about $8. The issue I had with the chopper is honestly, it was not powerful enough to cut even the most simple items such as Onions and Celery.
That’s far in the past now courtesy of the multi-functions of the 5-in-1 dicer by Gourmia. Being able to chop, slice, grate, and shred virtually everything you can think of which to me has been paramount in my meal prepping. I’ve chopped everything from celery sticks, to my own homemade French fries which brings me to an extra Gourmia album that I absolutely love.
Gourmia’s GAF520 Electric Air Fryer is Gourmia’s latest product that over the course of a few weeks have made me not only eat a bit healthier but allowed me to cook things in a simple one button press. If you’ve never used an Air Fryer, it’s essentially a means of cooking your foods completely, all while reducing the amount of fat and calories that oils and extra ingredients will give you if you cooked it normally. Prior to the Electric Air Fryer, I used to purchase bagged French fries, waffle fries, and would even make my chicken wings with all of the terrible oils and flour from my local grocery store.
With the Electric Air Fryer by Gourmia, all you have to do is virtually set the food into the basket and all of your food will fry, bake and roast completely without having to excessively check it thanks to Gourmia’s own cookbook that comes including telling you the estimates of how long and what temperatures to cook your meals. Even better, the GAF520 has adjustable temperature controls which show up on the front of the Air Fryer via a Blue LED display so accurately show you the remaining time of your meal. While I don’t think I’ll completely switch from Sous Vide-ing my steaks and chicken, the Gourmet Electric Air Fryer has allowed me to enjoy healthier chicken tenders and sweet potato waffle fries.
