"Matthew Dominguez, junior in the food studies program at New York University reports on new specialty appliances. Are you a true foodie? Interested in making homemade versions of foods that you would normally order in a restaurant or buy at the supermarket? If so, these appliances are definitely worth checking out.   Breville the Risotto Plus ($130) Anyone who&amp;#039;s made risotto can tell you that it&amp;#039;s a very labor-intensive process. The rich and creamy texture we all love requires repeatedly adding ladles of stock and constantly stirring. If you don&amp;#039;t have the time to babysit your risotto, the Risotto Plus by Breville is a great choice. This product triple duties as a rice cooker, slow cooker, and steamer, with a special setting just for risotto. You simply saut\u00E9 your vegetables, meat, or seafood right in the vessel, then add short grain Arborio rice and wine. After the wine is absorbed, cover the rice with stock and relax! In 20 to 30 minutes, you&amp;#039;ll have risotto--no stirring required! Just forget about it and chill out! The risotto has great flavor and is very creamy, although it doesn&amp;#039;t quite have the al dente texture that you&amp;#039;d get from the stovetop. Still, the risotto is very tasty, and saves you a lot of time and effort.  Ninja Professional Frying System ($100) I personally love fried foods. There&amp;#039;s nothing better than a juicy piece of fried chicken or a fresh French fry straight from the fryer. The part I don&amp;#039;t love? The clean-up. Deep-frying on the stovetop leads to grease splattering that can take forever to wipe off. The Ninja Professional Frying System makes cleaning a breeze. This deep fryer has a cover that keeps grease in, while also letting steam escape. When you&amp;#039;re done frying, just attach the pour spout so that you can easily dispose of the oil without worrying about spills.   The Cuisinart Electronic Yogurt Make with Automatic Cooling ($130) Greek yogurt has become one of the hottest food trends. What&amp;#039;s not to love about it? It&amp;#039;s rich, thick, creamy, and nutritious! The Cuisinart Electronic Yogurt Maker lets you make delicious yogurt at home! You can even make yogurt with goat, soy, or almond milk! All you need to do is mix some of your favorite store-bought yogurt and milk, then place it in the machine. The live bacteria culture in the yogurt will allow the milk to ferment, creating yogurt. Once you start the machine, just walk away. Come back a day later, and enjoy a nice bowl of chilled homemade yogurt!  T-fal Ice Cream Maker ($30.50) Now that winter&amp;#039;s over, it&amp;#039;s time to start enjoying the warm weather. I don&amp;#039;t think there&amp;#039;s anything more refreshing than a scoop of ice cream on a hot summer day. But why waste time waiting for the ice the cream truck, when you can use the T-fal Ice Cream Maker to make your own? Mix up heavy cream and sugar with the flavoring of your choice to make thick, smooth ice cream. You can also make other frozen treats, such as frozen yogurt, sorbet, and sherbet.
