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?


I feel like cleaning a food processor takes longer than dicing with a knife. I use mine for softer tough foods like dried apples or making graham cracker crust but I can’t justify busting it out of the pantry and cleaning it otherwise, what are you using it for?
Let me blow your mind: mini food processor/chopper! Fewer moving parts, much easier to use and clean, and it completes 90% of the tasks I used to use a food processor for.
You want to chop an onion: skin it, quarter, shove it in, brief pulse. Done, put everything in the dishwasher. Perfect size and So much more convenient
It gets most use out of making pico de gallo dicing up the onions, the tomatoes, and chopping the cilantro. Anything that can fit and needs to be finely cut, I just use the processor.
Yeah, we just throw our salsa ingredients in and let the processor chop them too
