What are your unconventional kitchen tools/utensils you were skeptical of at first but feel you can’t live without?
minus-squarenondescripthandle@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·3 months agoDid I miss it or did no one say Rice Cooker yet? A good rice cooker makes rice texture so much better while simplifying the whole process.
minus-squareAppoxo@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·3 months agoA pot is IMO sufficient for single use cooking (maybe once every 1-2 weeks of cooking) if you are not a primary rice household.
minus-squaregrrgyle@slrpnk.netlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·3 months agoI mean I eat rice more days than I don’t and I use a pot. 15 minutes + mostly unattended, while I’m prepping some protein or whatever.
minus-squareAppoxo@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·3 months agoMy problem is the cleaning after with starchy stuff. Especially sticky rice variants are annoying to clean (read: throw in the dishwasher)
minus-squaregrrgyle@slrpnk.netlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·3 months agoWith a rigid bamboo pot scraper (and, yes, a little soaking if really stuck on there), I’ve found it’s actually not worth the bother of the dishwasher when it’s so easy to do by hand. But I’m into a real rice rythme these days lol

minus-squaregrrgyle@slrpnk.netlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·3 months ago I just bought mine at a retail outlet. Here’s an old and unused one for comparison. This is after a couple years’ use. Oh I found it online: https://www.bambuhome.com/products/pot-scrapers-set-of-4
