Domestic Chipper (We have one)
(https://www.virtual-pub.com/SMF/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Ffaq.productchat.com%2Fpictures%2Ffrench-fry-cuttersml.jpg&hash=df2c6eabba5b0e6080787d899e5e0ea1c11ccb5c)
Haven't used it in years ~ like the pasta maker.
Used twice and consigned to the back of a deep cupboard.
We have tons of such devices in the back of cupboards noooo:

Potato Ricer is another such

We have a chipper... cloud9:
-
Frankly BM ~ and I don't want to p*ss on your chips so to speak ~ but we have thrown so many of those away over the years. Impossible to keep clean, stink the house out, cause grease all over kitchen walls and ceilings because they "syeam" as they cook, whenever you change the oil you have the problem of what to do with the old oil and some always ends up either down your clothes or on the floor.
-
This is a chipper. I don't think you'll get it in the kitchen.

Agreed... but things are different here aren't they...? whistle:
Our last one was simply dropped into the wheelie bin in a bin bag - oil and everything. No bin Stazi here to tell you that you can't do it... ;)

Thanks Unc. That was the bloody machine over the road all yesterday along with the chainsaws.
Still, on the bright side, it's improved the view cloud9:

No ~ this is a salad tosser.

-
Oi you two - keep the personal insults out of it! cussing:
-
Touchy!
But technically a man who tosses salad would be a salad tosser. The device pictured above Darwin's innocent enquiry is in fact a salad spinner ~ designed to remove the water from washed salad leaves. Personally I use a clean tea towel, as do most chefs, in which one wraps the leaves, holds the four corners of the towel and whirls it about one's head ~ this operation is best performed in the garden as wives tend to get a little piqued if you do it in the kitchen. If in further doubt ask LL the difference between a tosser and a spinner ~ I'm sure she will have a view on the subject. whistle:

Have you got a pressure cooker? scared2:

We used to have, but shrugs:
-
Previous wife got custody of the pressure cooker. Just as well because the replacement kitchen help is scared witless of them.

Rightly so, in my experience
-
Nasty things! noooo:
-
The ceiling was never the same again noooo:
-
Perfectly safe if used properly. Mother had one for years as did Mrs S#1 and I until she claimed custody. All in all I used one for 30 years without a problem.
-
Mother Wench exploded hers.
-
if used properly
rubschin:
-
The problems that people have with them are either that they have failed to maintain them properly or they have put them on to cook and wandered off, forgetting that the cooking will only take five minutes, and the thing boils dry. It will then explode but this usually takes some considerable time. Certainly if a conventional saucepan was left unattended for that length of time it would have melted.

Oh yes he has

I've found something at the back of a cupboard rubschin:
It's like a plastic takeaway container with a handle on one end, and a snug fitting aluminium lid like a cheese grater. I think it's Japanese from the writing on the back. I've never used it Shrugs:
-
We have one of those ~ It's for grating cucumber and other "wet" stuff ~ at least that's what we do with it.
-
I think you're right ~ I can just see Oriental chefs grating wet vegetables. Why would you grate a cucumber though? rubschin:
-
redface: To make sandwiches when I'm being posh. It also grates them nicely to garnish salads and stuff.
-
Fairy nuff. I reckon the Japanese grate their 230 varieties of radish for the sushi mix etc. I will give it a try at the weekend with a cucumber ~ eyes:
230 varieties? Plucked from thin air...
-
Not for filing nails then? redface:
-
No ~ that's why the handle. I have left more of my finger tips in sandwiches using a conventional grater than I care to remember
-

Note to self: Decline offer of lunch from Snoopy. eeek:
-
Ouch! But the problem with this one is that it doesn't have the variety of grating options that the sturdy Italian model has.
redface: Oops. I think I've wandered into the territory of the 3 word story... sturdy Italian models eyes:
-
Ours has optional blades similar to this one
