Cook With the Kitchen Cube to Make Measuring Mindless
There are a lot of cool things out there that make us wonder — do they really work? In our I Tried It series, we set out to use them in the real world and have determined that, in fact, they really do.
On Trial: The Kitchen Cube, a genius all-in-one measuring device
Tester: Zarah Kavarana, home cook, precise measurer, and frequent loser of measuring cups and spoons
The Brief: If you're a home cook, quarantine has either been a total dream come true or your own personal nightmare. For me, it's been a little bit of both. While I've kept myself busy by learning new skills, experimenting with pantry-only ingredients, and even trying emerging trends — like a certain Tik Tok famous coffee that I’m still low-key obsessed with — I found myself constantly using the same tools, sometimes up to three times a day.
While I don't completely mind tossing everything in the dishwasher, when it came to the cooking essentials that I was using for every meal, like measuring cups and spoons, the never-ending cleaning kind of drove me crazy. It wasn't even the act of sudsing and rinsing that got under my skin, but more the fact that every time I needed to wash a single tablespoon, there was the hassle of having to separate it from the rest.
The result: One measuring cup would be sitting in the dishwasher, another would be airing off in the drain board, and somewhere out in the universe, another would permanently vanish, forcing me to seek out a new set. So, when I heard about the Kitchen Cube, an all-in-one device that contains everything you need to precisely measure ingredients, I knew it would be a game-changer for my new cooking routine.
At first glance, it looks like something you might find on the floor of a preschool, but its space-saving square shape contains a whopping 19 measurements that are each separated into their own geometric compartments. It includes cups, tablespoons, teaspoons, and milliliters, plus their metric equivalents, so you can easily follow international recipes without having to worry about complicated conversions. Measurements are clearly engraved to ensure that the markings won't fade away with washing, nor will they rub off on your food.
The Kitchen Cube keeps all measurements in one place, so you'll never have to search for a single tablespoon, or clutter up drawers with clunky cups. Its streamlined format also keeps you super organized while cooking, since it'll free up counter space for essential tools and ingredients.
Another plus: The Kitchen Cube can be microwaved, so you can measure out a few tablespoons of butter and melt it without having to dirty up a microwave-safe bowl. When you’re ready to clean, it can conveniently be placed in the dishwasher for a thorough rinse.
In case you needed an added incentive to buy, the Kitchen Cube has partnered with nonprofit Feed My Children’s Fund to donate a meal to a child in need with every purchase.
Closing Argument: If you're tired of tracking down teaspoons every time you cook, the Kitchen Cube has you covered for precise measuring and compact storage. At under $20.00, its all-in-one approach will prevent you from constantly losing cups and having to replace set after set. It's a great option if you're looking for one measuring tool that'll last you a lifetime.
