The Kitchen

[Padge]

We now have the a mind boggling selection of cooking methods available in our kitchen.

A double oven + hob

Microwave

Halogen oven

Large slow cooker to cook enough for freezing

Small slow cooker

Air fryer

It is getting bonkers.

I presume you don't have a galley.

I love my air fryer.

Our kitchen is a galley kitchen

Just need a George Foreman grill, popcorn maker, toasted sandwich maker, sous-vide, pressure cooker, digital multicooker, electric pizza oven, double electric grill and a fondue set and you will be good to go!

I wouldn't mind a George Foreman grill. I'm sure it's better than our Carl Lewis grill.

Make sure that you get all of theses items BEFORE the Brexit...could be a shortage.

Gave away half of those, it was hard work going to the garage to get them on the one occasion a year we used them.

The missus said we should get an airfryer, she explained that it would be better than the deep fat fryer as a low fat option...

...I said nothing and she saw my mood darken...

...we agreed we would never speak of it again.

We’ve got a George Formby grill

We had steak yesterday 

it turned out nice again.

Aga and microwave is where our cooking starts and stops. Toaster is another I suppose, but you can do that on the aga as well...

Do not have Halogen, or microwave

Maybe I should just have enough for  a chip pan & Wok, my steamer is now 4ked, & I Should try something else.

Fan Oven.

Electric Hob - I'd prefer gas or induction for faster temperature changes, but the landlord does the installation and pays for it.

Slow Cooker. Used every weekend at least once. 

Remoska - aren't I being wilfully different? Actually, it is very a useful occasional gizmo.

Coffee Bean Roaster.

I got rid of the Microwave a few years ago, as I figured I could do without it once my regular oven was upgraded. Haven't missed it yet.

Microwave we only use for starting off jackets that then go into the halogen, the very occasional (that is very very) ping meal and for the very good Vete rice.

I’ve not had a microwave for over 10 years and don’t miss it, I’ve got a thermomix though - great piece of kit!

If anyone is wondering what a Thermomix is, let the Katering Show enlighten you.

That's not like you to have something different.

At the house I grew up in, the previous occupants (who were a bit lairy) had an Aga. Apparently if it went out because they'd been away a few days, either on the lash or in the cells, they re-lit it by pouring in a load of petrol, chucking in a lit match and running like hell.

When my family moved in, we decided that buying a replacement unit was safer than using the existing one.

I'm confused now.

Anyhow, thanks for the family history.

I’ve got a sous vide circulator, the steaks and slow cooked meat joints (like brisket and pork shoulder)are absolutely divine. Plus I get to finish the steaks off with a manly blow torch. 

Does anyone else sous vide here. My Danish friends got me in to it.

Any of you sods even think of insulting my metrosexual dandy ways from now on ...

I've done sous-vide salmon steaks in a beer cooler a couple of times.

Let's see, what have I got? 

A tiny fridge freezer where all the freezer drawers are snapped or broken cos I keep ramming frozen chickens in and it ices up and traps said bird in there. Also for some reason water pools in the bottom of the fridge so I have a towel in there. 

I've got a £6 tesco very basic kettle that decides whether it wants to turn on or not. 

A £6 (I think) tesco very basic toaster that is so small you have to flip the bread over halfway through or it doesn't do the top inch of your slice. 

A cooker which has the grill and oven in the same hole (which I didn't realise when I bought it) meaning I can't use both options at the same time. 

And a microwave which doesn't really have any problems yet, although it does have grease from microwave burgers splattered all over it! 

[The Hallucinating Goose]

Oh yeah, and a blender, mustn't forget that!
