For me, it would probably have to be my Bialetti moka pot and Dualit toaster. I make a pot of coffee and toast almost every morning. I also hope to replace my old pans with a cast iron one soon, and I look forward to using that a lot.

I’m embarrassed, but…my microwave gets a lot of use. I meal prep and reheat a lot, though sometimes I get fancy and finish in the toaster oven. I also bake all my bread, and the kitchenaid is invaluable for kneading all that dough.
The most esoteric tool I use on the reg is probably the whirley pop, it makes the best stovetop popcorn, which I snack on at least a couple times a week.
Nothing wrong with microwave cooking. You’d be surprised how many things you can cook with one. Old school microwave cookbooks from the 70s are awesome.
Oh same on the whirley pop. It took a lot of deliberation before I bought it, because it’s such a single use thing for my small kitchen. But it is so much better than microwave popcorn and so much easier than shaking a pot/bowl on the stove. Definitely worth it!
I concur!! I used to burn so much popcorn lol. The company is also amazing, the first one I got looked slightly wonky, but after a phone call and a few photos they were able to figure out it was damaged in transit and sent me a new lid within a week!
I love my microwave too. Had to get a new one recently as our old one bit the dust. It meant a whole week without microwave lentils or precooked meals that I’d frozen. I was so lost! I’m not a huge fan of cooking so the micro is my friend.
