Mine is a collection of antique dental instruments.
I won’t tell you why, but I will say that it puts the lotion on its skin.
Mine is pineapple corer and unnecessarily large can opener
hahahahhahahahahahahhaaahhaahhaha amazing
Expert mode is the tongs that were locked closed when they went into the drawer, and have now expanded 3x the size they should be
use another set of tongs to squeeze them shut while pulling
Look at money man over here. Showing off his two tongs.
That’s the entire reason I use a wine bucket to house big utensils. I used a wide thin grill spatula and all of my patience opening that drawer.
The bucket is slightly bigger around and slightly taller than a cookie jar. It works great.
We use a combination of a tall vase for the big top heavy stuff and an old Jaegermeister ice bucket that came free with something decades ago. Nestled within each other. Holds all of the bigger cooking utensils like spatulas, spoons, tongs, etc.
It used to work great in the old days. Now every utensil needs to have a bulky handle, and I’ve accumulated too many, so there’s just no room in that bucket
That sucks and I hate that for you. And I know how hard it is to throw them out because the second you do you know you’ll need it before you get a replacement.
C’mon man. You forgot half a dozen mismatched batteries, some tongs, and 3 different bottle openers for some reason.
😤😂
a knife once got stuck in out kitchen drawer.
after an hour of trying to get that drawer open with an arsenal of tools we surrendered and smashed a hole in the drawer from below.
The new ceramic knifes which caused the incident were collateral damage.
Oh man, that’s why that drawer was so spiteful - it took its revenge out on my mother-in-law. Apparently it reincarnated as a bathroom drawer and schemed with the cat to close the bathroom door and open the drawer right next to it
I tried to help but it was too tight to even snake a wire hanger through. I ended up smashing a hole in the bathroom door
Doors can be replaced, dignity cannot.
If it wasn’t so true

That fucking potato masher. My fiancee uses one of these. Just use the damned egg beaters! The machine packs away easy and the mashed potatoes are super light and fluffy.
I’m not sure what kind of eggbeaters would survive smashing potatoes, but I’ll live in fear of them from now on.
I simply don’t put these in a drawer.
You could just buy a utensil crock and never have to worry about it again.
Also box graters go in a cabinet, if you don’t have cabinet space and just keep it in a drawer then get a flat grater (it’s not like you use the other sides of the box grater anyway).
I don’t think “audio off” was ever a reason.
This really grates my cheese
Ineffective ass potato masher.
What would you recommend for mashing ass-potatoes?
For ass potatoes you need a ricer.
Kinda depends how you like your potatoes. I generally like them a little lumpy, but I think the twelve or so of us in the lumpy crew nationwide lose that fight every Thanksgiving.
But! The ineffective ass potato masher does a real good job of breaking up ground meat in to super tiny bits in the pan for stuff like Taco meat.
I’m in the lumpy potato crew! Some texture makes them so much nicer. Also, don’t add so much milk: I want to taste potatoes
…… of course I also tend to leave the skins in, plus there may be garlic or caramelized onions
Head of garlic in to 2 sticks of butter on the stove, in to the potatoes when they’re ready. Skins and all.
Nommmmmm
Ineffective potato masher is an amazing taco meat maker. And sometimes you want lumpy potatoes, like you said. I prefer smooth but something like bangers and mash? It just makes it feel more a substantial if there’s lumps.
I use a perforated masher. It’s like the middle ground between this and a ricer.
I know I wouldn’t recommend one of those electric hand mixers, like the one that just has a tiny blade it spins fast (the ones that spin two “interlocking” things might do decently). The potatoes are too thick and the blades just end up pushing the potatoes away and spinning uselessly. I’d take the one pictured over that kind.
And tbh, I like that style because you can still get good smooth mashed potatoes and the masher is easier to clean vs the grid style ones. Though for either of them, the trick is to dip it into the dish water and shake it around (clear out fragile stuff first obviously).
(the ones that spin two “interlocking” things might do decently)
Can confirm, they do.
The professionals use a potato ricer. Very fast, no lumps, and no risk of accidently making a glue, but you have to buy a potato rice, and change is scary.
Have you heard about our Lord and Savior the poop knife?
