What are your unconventional kitchen tools/utensils you were skeptical of at first but feel you can’t live without?

    A pot is IMO sufficient for single use cooking (maybe once every 1-2 weeks of cooking) if you are not a primary rice household.

      I mean I eat rice more days than I don’t and I use a pot. 15 minutes + mostly unattended, while I’m prepping some protein or whatever.

        My problem is the cleaning after with starchy stuff.
        Especially sticky rice variants are annoying to clean (read: throw in the dishwasher)

          With a rigid bamboo pot scraper (and, yes, a little soaking if really stuck on there), I’ve found it’s actually not worth the bother of the dishwasher when it’s so easy to do by hand.

          But I’m into a real rice rythme these days lol
