New high-tech gadgets are becoming all the rage in the kitchen, offering all kinds of conveniences that make cooking and entertaining a breeze. Here are 5 of the hottest kitchen gadgets on the market right now:

• Induction Cooktops – With faster cooking times than electric cooktops and better temperature response than conventional gas stoves, induction cooktops are becoming a fast favorite.

Now you won’t have to worry about transferring germs and bacteria or the extensive clean-up sessions needed to get rid of them.

• Stove Steamers – Stove steamers are a great new toy for the health-conscious cook. It makes steaming food a whole lot simpler and convenient.
