It is a Friday innit. And I want some tips for new stuff.
Mine:
My garlic crusher has a thing that removes the bits of garlic that usually get stuck in there so it’s not a nightmare to clean.
My wooden tongs for hooking toast out which cheer me every time I use them.
And my pestle and mortar, just because it’s satisfying to smash sh1t up. |  |

Easy one that, vapes. My meat thermometer. Best £20 I've ever spent on kitchen stuff.
I know it ain't traditional to use one, but it's super handy for things like confit, or when you've got some lean meat that needs attention. Ahem. |  |

I wouldn't be without my kitchen blow torch, best kitchen invention ever. I got it originally to finish off my Creme Brulee but I use it now for lots of things from skinning peppers to searing scallops, browning off chicken and its even handy when lighting the BBQ |  | | |

Potato ricer - perfect mash every time.
Chipper - perfect chips every time. This is a manual thing that pushed the spuds through a sharpened grid.
Just got a new garlic crusher too which is tres bonne. |  |

Funny you should say that but based on experience I always recommend to people when they first use one test it outside as getting the flame pressure correct does take a bit of tweaking and first time I tried it (indoors) I did nearly set fire to something | | | |

Kitchen thermometer - as we’re proper w*nky we have 2, a handheld one and one with long wires where you stick the prong in a slab of meat as it cooks in the oven
Mandolin for various thin slicing
An actual properly sharp knife which is a revelation for anyone that has been using standard knives
But easily the best is a handheld vegetable dicer we got from a Polish company at a home show a few years back for a tenner, and must have saved hours in chopping time since when dicing into cubes etc |  |

The wife bought a ricer a few months back but tbh I’m not sure I like it. I think I’m a bit of a heathen when it comes to mash, and prefer it a bit thicker with the odd lump rather than perfectly smooth! (And don’t even get me started on the blended puree-type mash you get some places...) | |

Down arrowed because you're clearly a monster. Mash should be lump-free. |  |

Another from me, cos pomme puree is the food of the gods. Half taters, half butter and milk. Lush. | |

Thermometers sound really boring. I'd rather go for the old 'do you think this will kill us?' quandary every time :) | |

I'm pretty chuffed with an omelette maker I bought very recently. Ok, it may be a bit on the lazy side but for £20 it's a brilliant piece of kit and doesn't take up much room.
Simply heat until light goes out, spray with frylite and add your mixture. Ten minutes later, nice fluffy omelette that doesn't stick and then just wipe clean.
I am a bit of a sucker for a gadget to be honest. I have a garlic press that someone else described earlier where the skin stays inside with pushing out the pulp. Did have a potato ricer but tend to beat vigorously with a fork these days if I'm mashing. |  |

It's to prevent sticking. I don't add it for flavour. | |

The rubber spatula. So satisfying when it runs along the bottom of the non stick pan and perfectly divides whatever saucy thing you're cooking, exposing the beautiful Teflon, like the Route 66 slicing through the Oklahoman desert. |  |

That is actually Mrs Bloom I'm standing to the right just out of the photo Mrs Bloom has never liked my hairy shoulders and was using the kitchen blow torch to remove the hair, as I said a very handy kitchen utensil which can be used for a variety of things | | | |
