As the NKBA website states in reference to its 2015 Kitchen and Bath Style Report:
By the very nature of kitchen and bathroom remodeling and construction, trends in our industry don’t change as quickly as fashion or even furniture. Many products that go into kitchens and bathrooms are built to last a generation or more. Yet every year, we see innovative new products emerging and taking off, generating new insights for trend spotters. Since NKBA members are on the cutting edge of kitchen and bathroom design, this survey is useful in identifying emerging trends, such as the big shift from traditional to contemporary, and use of multiple colors and styles in the kitchens.
The team at Peter Salerno Inc. wishes to say thank you to the NKBA for the honor of being featured in its official 2015 Kitchen and Bath Style Guide, which is available for purchase now.

Peter Salerno’s Favorite Cinco De Mayo Drink Recipe: Tres Agaves Margarita
Learn How to Make 2015’s Best Cinco De Mayo Margarita Recipe
It’s no secret that Peter Salerno’s favorite online recipe source is Epicurious (it’s been featured so many times on our blog, we’ve lost count!). So when it came time to find the very best 2015 Cinco De Mayo margarita recipe, Epicurious had the answer – of course!

The Tres Agaves Margarita blends the classic tequila taste of a margarita with the sweet-and-sour blend of fresh lime and agave nectar. (Agave nectar, also called agave syrup, is produced from several types of agave plants, including the blue agave. Don’t be fooled, though – agave nectar is actually sweeter than honey!)
The recipe comes to us through Epicurious from Tres, an outstanding restaurant in San Francisco, and this is their house specialty blend of margarita. Served in an old-fashioned or rocks glass as opposed to a margarita or martini glass, this margarita is shorter in size but much, much longer in memorable flavor. And don’t worry – it packs all the punch you want! (It’s no wonder it currently has a perfect 4 fork rating on Epicurious!)
It is hotly debated when the margarita originated, but no one questions where the margarita is from – it’s as authentically Mexican as Cinco de Mayo itself.
Did you know? Cinco de Mayo is NOT Mexico’s Independence Day (Sept. 16th), but rather a celebration of the day the Mexican Army defeated the heavily-favored French in the Battle of Puebla.
Enjoy this outstanding Cinco de Mayo drink recipe for the Tres Agaves Margarita. Thanks to Epicurious and Tres, Peter Salerno’s 2015 Cinco de Mayo just got much more delicious!
Cinco De Mayo Margarita Recipe: Tres Agaves Margarita (courtesy Epicurious):
Ingredients
1/2 ounce agave nectar
1/2 water
2 ounces tequila made from 100 percent agave, such as Patron, Don Julio, and Corazón
1 ounce freshly squeezed lime juice
Preparation
In glass or small bowl, combine agave nectar and water, and stir until combined. In cocktail shaker filled with ice, combine tequila, agave nectar mixture, and lime juice. Shake vigorously, then strain into old-fashioned glass filled with fresh ice.
Peter Salerno’s New Showroom Display to Feature #TheMieleRange
Leave it to Miele to revolutionize the way we see kitchen appliances.
When Peter Salerno and the Peter Salerno Inc. family decided to update their award-winning showroom with a new transitional kitchen design vignette, there was only one choice for the range to be featured: the flagship, 48-inch range from Miele. It’s a range so incredible, Miele is comfortable referring to it simply as “The Miele Range”.

As the reigning Most Innovative Small Showroom in North America (awarded by KBIS and the NKBA), Peter Salerno Inc. has an obligation to present new, innovative and outstanding designs, appliances and technology in its Wyckoff, New Jersey showroom. When Peter Salerno saw the Miele flagship 48″ range in person at the Oberg & Lindquist boutique appliance studio, he knew it had to be featured in his new design vignette.
“I’m thrilled to have the new Miele 48-inch range as the centerpiece of our new transitional kitchen showroom vignette,” Peter Salerno said. “It truly is the definition of modern transitional design.”

From the official Miele Range press release:
“For the first time ever, a consumer has the option to have one unifying design throughout their kitchen,” said Nick Ord, President of Miele USA. “Each piece complements the other in form and function and ensures consistent and professional results.”
The Ranges, offered in All Gas, All Electric, Induction and Dual Fuel and ranging from 30” to the flagship 48” model allow for the ultimate flexibility. Many of the innovations available in Generation 6000 can be found in the Range to create perfect harmony in a full suite of kitchen appliances. From M-Touch controls that offer effortless navigation to the ComfortSwivel handle that moves ergonomically with the motion of the user’s wrist, no detail was left out. Precise results can be expected from the M Pro Dual Stacked Burner System with up to 19,500 BTU and TrueSimmer capability and for ease of cleaning, the ComfortClean grates are dishwasher-safe.
The Rangetops, with 30”, 36” and 48” units available, deliver the ultimate in versatility – in both form and function. Featuring the M Pro Dual Stacked Burner System, users have the ability to go from sear to TrueSimmer with the turn of a knob. The M Pro Grill and M Pro Infrared Griddle available for Rangetops offer high power output, even heat distribution and constant control –allowing for the most resourceful culinary preparation.
