With the cost of living rising, maybe it is time to get back to basics and do some home cooking. At The Sydney Library of Things we have a variety of kitchen equipment you might like to try. Don’t be that person who buys the latest gadget only to find you use it once or twice!! Try making home made bread, your own ice cream or some succulent pasta. Look what we have in our library for you to borrow.

Breville SousVide Cooker 

You would have seen a sousvide cooker on Masterchef or other fancy cooking shows and now you can try it out. Say goodbye to overcooking with a sous vide machine – It allows you to cook chicken breast, pork chop, or delicate fish at a constant low temperature to keep the meat moist and flavorful.
