OK, so I've not long moved and have found that kitchen gadgets are my go-to for purchases or would-be purchases (my faves being my hotel chocolat velvetiser and my ninja food chopper)
What is a kitchen gadget (or random item/utensil) that you've bought and can't live without...? |

"I got a Ninja Foodi and its my go to for all sorts of things. Air frying chips, doing the Sunday roast, all kinds of variations of rice and beyond. "
This is one thing I definitely want and am desperately trying to clear some Worktop space for as it's too heavy to lift in and out of a cupboard! |

"Kebab machine
Pressure cooker
oh my knives
I think I have every gadget there is but then I do write a food blog, teach people to cook and have done food festivals etc "
My boyfriend nudged me to get a good knife set and he was right... definitely a necessity. I have to admit that I've never seen a kebab machine! |

abruzzo Italy (and UK) |
Slow cooker gets used a lot in winter
Bread maker should get used more than it does
Hand blender and hand whisk are both really useful, otherwise I pretty much do everything by hand. |

Don't have the biggest of kitchens, so ours stays out of the cupboard, use glass baking board for it to sit on when using. Definitely wouldn't be without it now. |

"Chopsticks  
My boyfriend would appreciate this one actually!!
It makes the all noodles experience much more enjoyable "
Certainly makes it a longer experience for me as it takes me so long he's much more skilled with them than I am haha |

Bean to cup coffee machine.
Induction hob - having always cooked on gas I decided to try one, took a bit of getting used to however love cooking on it & wouldn't go back to gas.
Good set of regularly sharpened knives. |

They are a bit unwieldy. I got mine on PayPal credit and paid it in four installments. |

Secret hideaway in the pennines |
My vac packer, as a single guy, it's great for splitting my meats into single portions and freezing.
No more freezer burn from foul or cling film.
I do my food shop once a month and splitting stuff up like this means no wastages, and means I can vary my diet rather than having to eat the same thing for 3 or 4 days
I also use it when I cook chilli or curry or casaroles, vac pack the left overs and freeze them for another day.
My boss was so impressed when it took it into work to vac pac some BBQ stuff, he has ordered one for the bar

"Have the Mrs legs in the air like chopsticks whilst we wait for ramen to cook in the 9in1"
My legs aren't particularly what you'd describe as Chopsticks haha though thunder thighs might help with grip...?  |

"Microplane grater, thought I was mad paying £24 for a grater but it was so worth it…needed to zest 21 lemons for a wedding cake and it sailed through the job! "
Oooooh this is an interesting one! Never would've thought of this. I'm so lazy that I buy grated cheese! |
