How many of us can say that we were able to recreate our grandmother’s recipe as closely as possible? Not many of us. This is because cooking is not as simple as it seems. Cooking food might be easier but, cooking food that tastes good is very hard. Whether it is creamy butternut squash lasagna, chilli con Carne or even if it is a simple southern fried chicken. Everything needs a significant amount of your time and effort to do at least a minimum justice to the recipe. 

Another two elements that go into recreating a recipe are the control and precision you can impart. Even creativity can have its place when everything else is on the right track. 

Smart home with smart cooking devices is the best solution to all these problems. Because with the smart devices, the kitchen fixtures such as fridges and ovens get an upgrade in their technological capabilities. This ensures that you are not only able to cook with absolute control and precision but also frees you of your schedule of just waiting and staring at your cooking. Following are the experts’ handpicked top kitchen smart home appliances in no particular order.
