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?
not at the same time (that would fucking rule though)! basically it has 2 lids, a pressure cooking one, and one with a heating element and fan in the top for convection. between those two lids it also has fermentation incubation, broiling, dehydrating, slow cooking, steaming, air frying (convection baking but it runs the fan fastest), and sear/sautéing (no lid) functions
