What kitchen hack appliances do you own that work better than expected and makes you enjoy/try out new foods more often? Bonus if it doesn't have teflon or there is plastic near any of the food.
>>21821182For me it was an air fryer and pressure cooker for dry beans
>>21821182I always thought a vacuum sealer was a meme machine but it’s actually pretty handy, I use it a lot for cheese and freezing butter
>>21821182I was too much of a cooklet to use it for the longest time.Now I make bread, pizza, and giant cookies with it.
>>21821182Buying a shitty $30 rice cooker made rice the main staple carb in my diet (previously pasta/bread) pretty much overnight. I was skeptical that they worked that well but pleasantly surprised in the end.
>>21822161Why'd you switch from pasta/bread to rice?
>>21821182appliances are not "hacks" you don't even know what that word means.
>>21822073>I use it a lot for cheese and freezing butterwell that's pointless and a waste. butter will keep in a freezer for several months in it's original container.
>>21821182Electric can opener
>>21822428>Reddit movie
for americans specifically
>>21822368>Cheaper >Easier to make in bulk>Stores and reheats better>Extremely versatile >Easier to measure for perfect macros>I really love the taste of plain riceI still eat bread and pasta but not nearly as much as I used to.
>>21821182Double oven. You think "oh, for people that have huge family gatherings" and then you move into a place with one and use the top oven constantly. It's like having a giant 220V toaster oven that takes up no counter space.
Toaster oven. Really great when I want to bake something like pizza or quesadillas without having to use my oven. They are much more useful than normal toasters
>>21822620your mom is in a reddit movie. r/slampig.
>>21822161rice cookers are goatedyou would think it is a gimmick but it cooks exactly like you do. asians all use them and they are inherently cheap>>21822658also good but for most americans we just have coffee machines and don't end up boiling water very often
>>21822073I got the big weston as a gift one year because I'd been eying the cheap ones. It's great. I'm glad we have the counter space for it in the pantry and a free drawer for the bags, though.It's probably paid for itself by now but it's really more of a quality of life improvement - if you can vacuum seal steaks and chops, and have a grinder, you can buy subprimals and do your own basic butchering better than you can easily buy
Pizazz pizza oven. Was pissed when my wife got it for Christmas. It sat unused for a year and a half before I dragged it out for a surfer dude jalapeno and pineapple pizza. Shit was tight. I've made wings, cookies and pizzas on this bad boy. Perfect crust every time.
My charcuterie board
>>21824479>>Stores and reheats betterabsolutely psychotic opinion
>>21822083Man talk about one of the most versatile skillets ever. I think a lot of people who hate on cast iron simply do not have the patience to allow them to heat up properly. What kind of bread do you make? I just started making bread but haven't yet in a skillet. I was thinking of trying to make buttermilk biscuits with it.
>>21826996cookies on that? Do tell that peaks my interest since I make cookies often. What kind of cookies do you make on it?
If you do a lot of baking like I do, a kitchen scale is going to be your most used appliance. It's also great for dividing food for meal prep.
>>21821182I got a blender as a gift and it does a lot of food processing stuff better than a food processor or stick blender. e.g. making rehydrated arbol peppers I didn't deseed into a uniform fluid instead of pepper shreds and seeds
>>21827674That anon's right, reheating pasta ruins its texture and actual bread (not wonderbread) goes stale or moldy pretty quickly.
>>21822083"Based." Parlance.>>21827826Now I know why you wanna hate meOnly weak 4'11" girls complain about cast iron
>>21827826My current goto recipe makes 2 pizzas or 1 bread:1 1/2 cups AP1 cup whole wheat5 TBS dark rye1 tsp salt~1 3/4 water1/2 cup sourdough starterYou can easily just make an 100% AP flour bread with yeast, same style.I first made Emma's Roman Castles bread, modifying it after learning how to make sourdough, using a cast iron instead of a dutch oven:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3xtj9X1jDc0
>>21822658microwaves exist retard
>>21827672>I Think therefore I ham>>21828086That’s a good one, I use mine everyday but never thought I needed one before I bought it
Honestly, this 9 dollar mandoline that I found at Shop Rite continues to impress me.
>>21828934My bad forgot to post the pic
>>21821182Pizza night will never be the same again.
>>21821182
>>21828969Could just eat her every night
>>21821182isnt that just a rice cooker without the auto shutoff?
>>21821182>please help me find 'hack appliances' that aren't 'memes'. and I'm scared of teflon and plastic because that's totally normal nowadays and only NPCs are not doing their darnedest to limit their seed oils and microplastics and forever chems. Amirite, fellow chuds? We're not crazy, we're sensible. We do our own research. Based.
I ONLY use cast iron or stainless steel cookwareI just don't cook in or with fuckin plastic, son
>>21829006how long do you think you could live with pussy juice as your only source of nourishment?
>>21829066I'm curious how many different threads this exact image is in. Of course you'll respond to this as if there's no problem. You're a pitiful pile of shit, bmw-browner. You spread cringe wherever you go. You just bumped your own thread again too. You're such a sad fucking attention whore. People ignore your faggy 'din-dins' thread so you foist your same keys pics on us in multiple others.Is anyone else seeing this? lol, unbelievable.
>>21829078Meh I literally don't even read responses on this site unless they are backed up with a pictureThis is an IMAGEBOARD, sonWhy do I care what someone has to say when they can't produce a picture to support their statement?
>>21829112By that rationale your "statement" you're supporting is: I HAVE A BMW! I HAVE A BMW! LOOK AT ME! LOOK AT ME!
>>21829112This post is weird. It's like you have brief moments of clarity where you're not AS much of an insufferable baby. No 'kek cry pussy' or adding 'e' to the end of every other word. Just one little condescending "son" is the extent of your assholery. It's like you can turn it almost all the way off. You really could control yourself. Get a fucking working camera and leave the keys out and you might become a decent member of the /ck/ community. That's what I'd do were I in your unenviable position.Of course you won't just because I suggest it and you, for some reason, have your "pride". lol
>>21822073You can dry ferment/pickle with just vegetables and salt, and for long ass times so you get deep flavor
>>21824557https://shop.blackdogsalvage.com/1959-retro-flair-oven-tappan-fabulous-400-with-slide-out-range-stove/My mom had this and went modern. FUCK ME.
>>21829276It's too bad those don't come with your own young Elizabeth Montgomery. Otherwise vintage appiances are a serious pain.
>>21829236You're free to post breakfast on engine as well kek
>>21821182Air fryer. I know it's a meme but it's literally a countertop convection oven and strictly better than a toaster oven.
>>21829249Why leave the keys out? You can just ignore them if they bother you so much for some reason
>>21829078I've been browsing /ck/ for 10 minutes and have seen that image in two threads so far
>>21826996this shit is amazing. Love mine
>>21829517Because some fuckers keep naking dumbass stainless steel vs cast iron threads when you truly need both unless you're a ricelet cooklet tastelet
>buy more warrantyyikes, what a dogshit taste in vehicles
>>21829530And yet no breakfast on engine from the ricelet tastelet slowfaglet cooklets
>>21829529The only reason why you'd use cast iron is for heat retention. It's completely unnecessary unless you want to keep something warm and don't have an oven or aluminium foil to do that.On top of that iron is poisonous. And it reacts with water (it rusts): only a retard would use beer, wine or vinegar in a cast iron pan.
>>21829515But it's NOT strictly better. It doesn't broil and brown as well. I'd rather make cheese toast in a toaster oven than a fucking air fryer. I just want heat from above, not flowing air heat making the bottom of the bread hard.
>>21829516You're a fucking sad one. Your justifications are non-existent. Your stupid keys are everywhere and not a single person appreciates it. Everyone thinks you're insufferable. >>21829532This shit is fucking retarded. It makes NO sense. Why would anyone set this scene and photograph it?What the fuck does a car engine have to do with something you're going to eat?No one is impressed. You ARE aware there's an entire board to "show off" your car shit in, right?I'm guessing they got tired of your shit long ago. Just like we don't want to see your keys, they didn't wanna see your plates of eggs. haha!Brown incel loser.
>>21829657That's why you need bothThe poison is in the dose lol. Cooking on cast iron isn't going to poison you>The only reason why you'd use cast iron is for heat retentionLol no they are better at cooking eggies too due to their inherent non-stick properties>>21829859So no breakfast on your fastest car'a engine?You're a tastelet, brown incel loser
>>21829657Iron isn't poisonous you retarded faggot. Our bodies literally require iron to live, it's in our blood. If you get some rust from your cast iron in your food it's literally a vitamin supplement.
The food on engine idea comes from the Alfa QV + steak guy, and the keys + food were so I could post food to /o/ and have it be car-relatedAnother underrated piece is the all METAL HexMill pepper grinder from HexCladI was going to include my stainless steel potato ricer, but I can't find it for some reasonHope that helps!
>>21829891It doesn't help until you stop doing it. Retire all those lame images. Do your car faggotry on the car board. >>21829869And no, I'm still white. My skin is visible in my images where I cook all the "fast food". You however ARE actually brown and you are an incel loser. You're a virgin with no friends and no life. Your dad's car doesn't impress us. You're a NEET with nothing to do but be a fucking troll. You could use your time in a variety of better ways but you do this instead. You just insist on your own reality. One where you're this great cook and you have good taste and own "luxury" things.It all just keeps coming back to the same 6 or 7 good photos of dinners out from years ago, or something you managed to pull off at home. And the rest are blurry and stupid or unrelated reaction images of women from social media. You're just clueless about all of it. You have no real personality. You haven't fully integrated into our culture yet. And you have no business talking down on anyone. You don't excel at anything from what I can tell. Just trying to be boastful and even failing at that. You've completely taken over and ruined yet another thread because people don't like your own. But maybe if you just keep insistently shouting the opposite you can convince yourself it's different.
>>21827826Buttermilk biscuits ? can someone tell us more ?
