I find that I use it pretty much every day for one thing or another, so mine has earned permanent counter residence. I’ll probably buy a much fancier one when this one kicks the bucket.
What do you use it for? I got one as a gift a couple of years ago, I used to to make tater tots once (admittedly they were pretty good, but I don’t generally eat tater tots) and I tried to make fried tofu but it simply came out dry on the outside. Since then the thing has been sitting in its box - I can’t get rid of it because the person who gave it to me visits sometimes.
I suppose we probably just cook different sorts of food - everything I make is either boiled or pan-fried. (I don’t ever use my oven either. I’ve been thinking of replacing it with a cooktop for more cabinet space but I think that would lower my home’s resale value.)
Aside from all kinds of recipes I make pretty regularly (buffalo cauliflower, green bean fries, homemade pizza rolls and jalapeno poppers, etc.) I also regularly use it to heat frozen food or leftover pizza, to thaw bread, to roast vegetables… Tonight I used it to cook the protein I was making for an asian dish while I stir fried the veggies and made the sauce.
Huge variety of options. Maybe watch some YouTube videos of quick recipes and get inspired!
