My favorite is an immersion blender. I have a cord free model. I like to use it making sauces and eggs.
Sauces to hide veggies from my toddler who doesn’t realize the veggies are there for fortification and health.
Eggs I like to blend/whip air into the scramble. Cheese is an easy add too. They are super fluffy and delicious.
As far as cleaning it, I wipe any missed chunks off, put warm water plus soap in a cup, and blend til stiff peaks, JK.
What is your favorite kitchen gadget?


Kenwood Kitchenaid-type thing. Pretty heavy duty, because it’s mostly used for bread dough.
I learned to make breads without it and still occasionally do (well… Mostly when I’m somewhere else, I guess), and there is nothing wrong with kneading by hand.
It’s just so much more convenient and so much less cleanup to let the machine do it. Especially the cleanup part is huge.
