Technological progress has spoiled us so much that even to boil eggs, we trust a technique specially created for this purpose. Often in the race for fashion, in order to facilitate work, we litter the space with huge devices, and we rarely use them. This ranking of the most useless household kitchen appliances will help save your finances and space on the kitchen surface.
Egg cooker
To boil an egg, all you need is an enamel bowl or small saucepan and boiling water. Even a child can put eggs in water and leave them to boil for 7 to 11 minutes. A bulky machine for these purposes will only collect dust in the kitchen.
Toaster
This device was very popular 20 years ago, and even now there are lovers of crispy toasted bread. Both an oven and a frying pan can easily cope with this purpose, so if your kitchen does not allow you to place a large number of devices, it is better to refuse to buy a toaster.
Yoghurt maker
The ability to make yogurt is available in almost every technique – a multicooker, a double boiler, and it is not difficult to ferment it in a thermos. Washing a large appliance after every 6 servings of yoghurt is troublesome.
Deep fryer
Sometimes you really want to fry potatoes like in fast food restaurants. But because of the harm of this dish, you will not do it often anyway. And toss potato slices into boiling oil – a stove and a saucepan are enough.
Fondyushnitsa
Often this device is presented for big holidays – rarely a wedding is complete without this bulky presentation. Warming up a fondue dish, buying special cheeses or melting chocolate for a large company – it’s easier to enjoy a dish in a cafe or restaurant than keeping a fondue dish at home for a couple of times an exceptional feast for a whole year.
Sandwich maker
A device for the most lazy or idealistic people who want to use exceptionally smooth sandwiches. Excessive consumption of sandwiches does not lead to anything good. And laying the ingredients for the sake of an even edge of the bread is a dubious pleasure. And it takes the same amount of time as you will lay and warm up the sandwich by hand.
Shredders
All kinds of non-universal shredders make storage methods much more difficult. With a good blender or food processor, choppers, slicers, and coffee grinders are unnecessary gadgets in the kitchen. If you do not have to use all this on an industrial scale, do not be too lazy to work with a knife, cutting an apple into slices.
Freezer
How often do you have to make ice cream at home? For rare occasions, a blender and a tablespoon are suitable, and freezing popsicles or yogurt is a fashionable trend for a hot summer. In winter, this technique is completely idle. The function of making ice cream is equipped with modern food processors – it is better to spend it once on one.
Waffle maker
In Soviet times, having a waffle iron at home was a real luxury and envy. A poorly developed restaurant business, the desire to cook a hearty dish and save on ingredients was a priority. Now, in the era of proper nutrition, this technique has outlived its usefulness. You can eat delicious waffles even in fast foods and it is not at all necessary to keep separate appliances at home at home.
Crepe maker
The story is the same as with the waffle iron, only pancakes are baked in every house much more often. Then you don’t want to work off those extra pounds, and a good pancake pan can compactly fit in your kitchen.
