What are your unconventional kitchen tools/utensils you were skeptical of at first but feel you can’t live without?
minus-squareZagorath@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up0·5 months agoI use a mandoline. It used to take me easily 5+ minutes per onion to dice. Now I can get 2 onions diced in about 2 minutes. Less dramatic time savings are available for other veggies too, depending on how finely I want them chopped up.
minus-squarerollerbang@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·5 months agoI use one to slice cabbage. But I’m not convinced there are time savings because it tends to be a pita too wash. Luckily I’m quite proficient with a knife so chopping an onion is a fast 2 minutes for me.
