From sourdough bread to smoked meat, the May 2022 kitchen trends reveal that consumers are becoming increasingly comfortable making more ambitious dishes at home.
Perhaps a result of the pandemic forcing more people to start cooking from home, the May 2022 kitchen trends show that there is no shortage of interest when it comes to devices that will help consumers execute complex cooking projects. For instance, the new Goldie sourdough starter storage system is a solution that helps budding bakers keep their yeast culture in optimal health. Another innovation is the Icepo Ice Cream Sandwich Scoop, which helps consumers perfectly portion ice cream between homemade cookies for an ice cream sandwich experience that's even better than storebought.
But perhaps the most extreme example of at-home chefs testing their skills is the launch of the Arden Indoor Pellet Smoker. Developed by GE Appliances-backed FirstBuild, this device will allow consumers to smoke meats, fish, and other ingredients in the comfort of their own homes.
