Portion control in a bottle.
When oil sprayers first appeared in kitchen stores several years ago, they were a huge hit with people who wanted an easy, controlled way to portion their favorite oils for salads, marinades and more. It was a great idea, but in many cases the execution fell short. Too many misters were perpetually clogged or just stopped working altogether. But not this one.
It's imported from Germany, where engineers' hard-won reputation for superb craftsmanship is taken seriously. The Emsa sprayer makes it easy to coat pans with oil before you bake, or to spray a marinade on the main course, or coat the grill so your dinner doesn't stick. You pump the top about 10 times to pressurize it, then the non-aerosol sprayer distributes a fine mi

The U.S. distributor of Emsa's products is Frieling, a company founded by Monika and Bernard Schnacke. Frieling's mission is to make kitchen life easier, healthier, more enjoyable and more convenient. Emsa's oil sprayer scores on all accounts.
