Experience

With a dad who was a machinist and a mom who loved to cook, Donna Currie was probably predestined to become enamored with kitchen gadgets. From garlic presses to food processors, she loved to tinker with them all, testing their pros and cons, and always looking for the best of the best even before she started writing about food. Her love of gadgets and cooking led to a recipe blog, Cookistry, and a cookbook, Make Ahead Bread.
