Highly waterproof, this thermometer is dishwasher safe and comes with the IPX6 rating that indicates that it meets the waterproof standards of professional kitchens. It features the quality construction for which CDN is known, with a sturdy polycarbonate lens and 304 stainless steel housing. It is enclosed in a stay-cool buoy that floats on the surface of a liquid and is removable for easy cleaning. The 1-inch diameter display is easy to read, measuring temperature from 20 to 220 degrees Fahrenheit.

Faster than spring versions, which take several hours, this tofu press does the work in 15 minutes or less. Centering marks for proper tofu block placement keeps the press even every time, and the mechanism works with two simple tension knobs. Easy to clean, whether in the dishwasher or a hot soapy hand- wash, the Tofu Press works with most tofu brick sizes, and both small and large portions can be press-dried. EZ Tofu Press benzel@aol.com www.eztofupress.com The Silicone Freezer Mold for the Advance Prepper GoodCook has a winner on its hands with its new TOUCH Prep 'n' Freeze Cube Tray. The ice cube tray itself is made of flexible silicone, and it has a cover so it's stackable. The best part of this is that the cubes are pre-measured 2-ounce portions – the perfect size for freezing portions of homemade baby food, herbal oils, compound butters or even coffee cubes. The cubes can be ejected individually by pushing them out of the flexible silicone tray, just the way we do with the silicone molds we've been using, but with this tray, the sliding cover keeps the cubes that aren't needed immediately intact. Those of us who make our own stock will also find it useful. Twisting the rigid frame like a normal ice cube tray will eject all of the cubes at once. The trays stack in the freezer, and with the 2-ounce cubes, 55 percent more ice will store in the same amount of space. The GoodCook TOUCH Prep 'n' Freeze Cube Tray is debuting at the International Home + Housewares Show, where it's a finalist for the 2018 Housewares Design Awards. It will retail for $10.99. KN
