New angle: what are we cooking in? What appliances and gadgets are truly life savers? Also, do I really need to drop a wad of cash on the Le Creuset petal braiser in sea salt, or am I being suckered in by how pretty it is? I'm trying to avoid getting things that have one purpose only, and that we'd probably only use once in a blue moon (Ninja Creami, for example), but if something is really worth it...
For me, I won't go without an air fryer again. We don't have anything special, but man it is nice to have crispy food without turning on the oven. It's good for individual portions of food too. We like our instant pot, but it really serves as our rice cooker, we haven't done much else in it and probably should. My other favorite appliances: our Breville bread machine and espresso machine.
