What are some good pots and pans to get? I'm probably dying from my current old non-stick flaking off in my food

[Anonymous No.17197631]

'Bout to grab me a 'ty 'ack, add 'ions and 'ed 'auce.

Blend some pie weights

[Anonymous No.17197687]

Got ramekins and an immersion blender. Also picked up a blowtorch from the work holiday potluck, so I'm excited to take a stab at making souffle

I got an instant pot. Trying to figure out what to pressure cook.

8 Boneless chick thighs, cup and a half of chick broth, your choice of mexican marinade. Poultry setting for 15min. Natural aspirate. Add 2 cup wild rice. 15 more min on poultry, natural aspirate. Open and shred chick. Add black beans, jalapeño, saute onion, etc. Continue to warm to temp. Makes for killer burritos.
NY style cheesecake also very easy to make in it. So is yogurt. Beef stew is a no brainer.

[Anonymous No.17197929]

>>17197922
That sounds pretty good, but I'll stick to doing stew in the slow cooker and cheesecake in the oven.

what do you like to cook? default standard rec would be a cast iron but depending on what you cook carbon steel or a good stainless steel are very worth investments.

also get yourself a saucier with sloped sides. i have a stainless steel one i use for a ton of stuff. soups, gravy, cooking rice, pasta, sauces, etc. definitely a solid workhorse

my mom got me a meat thermometer as a stocking stuffer. i had bought literally the exact model three hours earlier while picking up groceries lol

Leave one outside by the grill.

I said we could agree to pretend we'd bought one for each other, since hers broke recently, and left it with my parents. I was plenty satisfied with my real gifts

My brother got me one of those blue diamond infomercial pans for Christmas four years ago, and it remains one of the best pans I've ever owned, which kind of shocks me. Dudes here kept saying that eventually the ceramic would scratch and start sticking, but that's never happened.

[Anonymous No.17198454]

Got a 4,4L enameled pot, a spice and nut grinder and a set of wooden sticks. Very happy with my presents.

[Anonymous No.17198462]

Friend got me an air fryer. Also gave me an old microwave he wasn't using.

I got that as a graduation gift many years ago but I've never used it. What's so special about it?

Good heat distribution, and the kind of quality you can expect to pass down to your kids

[Anonymous No.17200736]

>>17198480
I also got socks, but that's a side gift man. Giving is no fun if you don't elicit some excitement in the receiver

[Anonymous No.17200747]

>>17198480
If you asked for something you might as well have just bought it yourself.

[Anonymous No.17200822]

Got a nice weebo knife. Had fun chopping and slicing an onion the other day, super sharp.

Money to buy champagne for the guests, 30$ shit wiskey, a wallet, a cheap Zara jacket 2DVDs and actual McDonald sockets.
I probably spent above 800€ in gifts, fuck "family" (hey Anon here are 2 great anime dvds! too bad you dont have a player anymore ! Also thanks for the 60€ aged rhum !)

Still had killer gravlax, foie gras, oysters and gorgonzola
(Thanks for the champagne Anon ! We only bought 8€ sparkling white !)

Many months ago I was talking about cooking with my mom, at some point I mentioned to her that all I really need right now is a proper stainless steel skillet so I can make fonds, or cook stuff on the stove that can be finished it in the oven.
She got me a two set of non-stick starfrit pan / marmite, with non-removable plastic handles so it's only oven safe up to 350F. Bless her I love her with all my heart, but I can't stop finding it funny lol. I wasn't expecting any gifts in the first place and I'll never bitch about getting free pans and pots so it's totally fine.

Blenders are almost self cleaning. Fill them with hot soapy water, blend for a bit, pour out, rinse, then inspect for anywhere that needs a bit of elbow gumption (usually nowhere).

[Anonymous No.17202451]

Christmas was cancelled because my mom got the coof so I still haven't gotten anything. We'll be over to visit and exchange gifts next weekend. I asked for a carbon steel pan and a nutmeg grinder and I'm hoping I get them

Get a baking dish and a small baking sheet with a griddle(?) as well.
Baking dishes are super handy when you want to make some oven roasted stuff and not mess up the interior of your oven and the small baking sheets are very nice because you can use them to prepare your meat in the fridge and still have some circulation due to the griddle.

Yeah you pretty much just have the one throw with the instapot and if it misses he's gonna shred you, best to let him have this one and ask for a gun next year
