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?

    Highly underrated, but a good thermometer can help a lot with cooking meats. Getting the right temp is much more accurate than cooking by sight or feel, and having one that reads in under a second is super convenient.Typhur makes some quality ones that I like to use

      I have a regular thermapen as well as the thermoworks “dot” leave-in thermometer. Both are invaluable. I can’t imagine roasting anything substantial without a reliable way to check the temp.

      My mother in-law insists on cooking for a time vs to temp. Dried pork and chicken don’t taste great

      Seconding, I use my instant read thermometer alot. Whether it something from the oven, airfryer, or stove, especially for fish and chicken, it keeps me from over cooking the meat
