Its really not Spooky, its neat, but you can do like 70-80% of things without one
same tier as a toaster, microwave, etc.
I have used my toaster as much as my slow cooker (not often)
not as high as a pan/heat source obviously
Microwave I use a lot
or a fridge
Air fryer I use a lot becuase its easy for cooking certain things, I use my stove whenever it makes sense to obviously
coffee maker > toaster > crock pot > microwave > blender
in terms of use for me
Coffee maker is at the botton because I do not drink coffee
and I do not own one
I bought a kettle specifically just to make hot chocolate, so I only use it 3 months out of the year
I also have a water boiler, but that's 100% just a nice to have and not required
oh grill
where do I rank that
If I could have a grill, I would get one. Not allowed to do that on my balcony
I think that's probably below microwave, but I like having it a lot
My mom bought a toaster oven recently, she's been enjoying it
Her stove fucking died, so it is what is being used in the interum
my microwave is a 2-in-1, really good toaster oven as well, which I think I use more than I actually use the microwave part of it
idk why, I just rarely have things to microwave anymore
other than melting butter for baking
I microwave reheat shit I cooked previously sometimes
When I get a lot of ground beef for cheap, I end up making something like 20-30 homemade burgers, and just freeze them
I usually just use the microwave to reheat those
Most meats I just reheat in my air fryer like Rusp though
I can't think of any other appliances that are even sorta on that required list
I have a mandoline which I bought as ameme and make homemade chips with
not required, funny to own
ig a smoker, as a far, far rarer thing that fills a similar niche as a grill
mandolines aren't an appliance, unless you mean you got an electric deli slicer one
I was talking genral kitchen tools I guess
yeah its not an applicance
mandolines will hurt you bad at some point
Mine has good safety stuff
I think I would have to really try
to cut myself
I would have to actively stick my finger into the blade compartment, which you have no reason to ever have your hand near
not sure exactly what kind you got, but I feel like it would be hard to retard proof one
It has a tube that you put the thing in, then another tube that you push the thing from behind with, so I really can't see how I'd cut myself
without making it mostly useless
Hold on I'll go get a picture
is yours a super small one Pika?
I use mine, and I've not hurt myself on it yet
but it's inevitable
yes, those metal kitchen gloves
You push the thing in with the white thing
it limits you somewhat, but that's not the worst design I've seen
It is retard proof
