REVIEW – I eat scrambled eggs at least once a week, and I often have hot chocolate in the winter months. I have used a battery-powered frother to do my mixing, but it’s always frustrating when the battery dies. First world problems deserve a solution too, and today I want to tell you about the

midea airfryer oven 01

REVIEW – Being empty nesters has greatly reduced the size of our meals. Firing up our big conventional oven seems like a waste of electricity, which of course means money. Since using the Midea Flexify French Door Air Fryer Oven for the last month or so, we have not used our big oven one time.

cooklife 12ingriggle 2

REVIEW – If you cook on a griddle, then you know that there is nothing better than cast iron for high-temperature cooking. Grilled sandwiches, smash burgers, eggs, and more all call out for cast iron for balanced temperature cooking and simple cleanup. Some cast iron pans are a bit unwieldy to handle as cast iron

midea air fryer 3

REVIEW – Recently my stove top has decided to have an existential crisis. All of a sudden the burner of the stove top has decided to only work on High heat without the inner section ever turning on. The middle back burner can’t decide if it wants to work full blast or not at all.

AMZCHEF Double Induction Cooktop with Griddle review – Cooking with electromagnetics

amzchef cooktop 3

REVIEW – Here at The Gadgeteer, we’ve reviewed induction cooktops in the past. I reviewed the Sunmaki 316 single-burner cooktop and Danny Welsch reviewed a two-burner model from AMZCHEF. We’ve discussed how fast they are, how they don’t heat up the kitchen since induction cooking only heats the pan, and how convenient the instant on/off

StokeNomad Rev 0005

REVIEW – While I continually look for ways to simplify my overlanding gear, I’ve found that a lot of compromises need to be made. With limited space and payload, weight and portability are prime considerations for everything I bring along. Always complicating matters is the unknown quotient of food and cooking supplies.
