A meat tenderizer?
 
Stainless, carbon, and cast, all of which have different use-cases.

I’m continually surprised by how many people straight up do not know how to cook on stainless steel. My stepmother yeeted an all-clad frypan because she couldn’t scramble eggs in it very well.
 
Since I've been eating clean and healthy nonstop, most of what I've been eating is lean meats and veggies. Usually chicken and veggies in the air fryer, drizzled with olive oil and seasonings. Easy to cook in bulk for multiple days of meal prep. I know that we can all sperg about what's gay/ autistic/based/whatever, but getting down to the brass tacks of it all, just about anything cooking related has a purpose. You're not gonna have good success with cooking a roast in a wok, or a soup in a skillet, etc. I tend to stay away from the gimmicky or overly complicated things in order to keep things simple. I don't need nor want a Ninja foodie that does a bazillion different things barely adequately, or a name-brand Instant Pot with 437 different settings.

But the absolutely most necessary thing in any kitchen, both for efficiency and safety in my opinion is a good set of properly sharpened knives. That doesn't mean that you need a $3000 set forged from a meteorite and Damascus steel by Hattori Hanzo himself, but stay away from the $10 Walmart set too. You'll have less chance of slipping and cutting yourself with a good, sharp, well balanced knife and speed things up considerably as well. I like my Henckles set.

No one seems to like glass
I like baking a nice hotdish in a glass Pyrex pan, but I was confused about whether that was gay or not.

Recently I've been making mini hotdish with shredded cabbage, just parting up a recipe between a bunch of the little 3-cup rectangular storage Pyrexes, so it cooks up quickly in the toaster oven and gets nice and crispy on top.
 
That is impressive. It makes me wonder why they bothered to cut the head off.
I believe the head removal is part of the certification process, if the FDA can't inspect the head, you have to throw the whole cow away.
Funny enough, Hot Pockets got busted playing fucky games with cow carcasses, and they had to withdraw the philly steak and cheese flavor.
The head of the factory was fucking the meat inspector and kept swapping the heads to get bad beef certified.

I can't find good stainless at goodwill anymore because of the flipper fucks.

Pyrex or GTFO

AC knows how it works.


There are quite a few good jokes to be had with that combo of words.
 
As long as you're not a hoarder about it, you can have different kinds of cookware.

I like cast iron plenty, but as stated upthread, you gotta bake your Authentic Hotdish in Pyrex, or inherited Corningware with the 1970s flowers on the side. Let that cast iron pan sit this round out and come in when it's time for chops or burgs.

And then just a regular stainless steel pot for boiling things, because you don't need rocket science for some good, efficient noodles.

Most of the current Pyrex is garbage. What you really want is the kind made of borosilicate glass. You can tell the difference because they use two different trademarks.

What you want is the stuff with the all-caps font, which is borosilicate, not the stuff in lowercase, which is shitty soda-lime glass that can literally explode if it gets thermally shocked.

I don't even think they make the real stuff any more. What they use now is just plain old glass undeserving of the Pyrex name.
