Friendship of kitchen devices

[SAFE !!]

I don't know how successful the idea will be, but I want to suggest a topic about the compatibility of kitchen appliances or non-traditional, but certainly SAFE !! its use.
There is a kitchen. devices that completely or partially replace each other. For example, oven and airfryer. There are completely different, but equally necessary - mutivarka and HP. And there is a kind of symbiosis. For example, my double boiler was idle, I was too lazy to wash the mesh at the bottom with a brush, especially after boiling manti and dumplings. After buying a dishwasher, I cook in a double boiler all the time. But a dishwasher seems to be an unambiguously useful thing, but there are not so uniquely successful devices.
I propose to speak about my experience of using kitchen appliances, so to speak, "a new life of old things"

I'm making ice cream cups from an ice cream maker in a waffle iron.
And in a yogurt maker I put yeast or dumplings dough for proofing.
My friend, who has very little space in the kitchen, has adapted to cook soup and milk porridge, and stew meat in HP. She has selected a suitable saucepan and cooks in the baking mode.
The forum came across information about potato pancakes in a waffle iron.

Probably, there are more ideas and it seems to me interesting and useful.

I am again in support of the topic. Non-standard use of technology will help those who, for whatever reason, cannot buy what they want or who doubt the advisability of buying.
For example, is a yogurt maker needed if there is a slow cooker? Yoghurt prepares well in the heating mode. And my husband does not give HP to his dacha - he bakes his own bread at home. So I knead the bread with my hands and let the dough stand in a yogurt maker. Very fast and great.

And I use a vegetable dryer as a proofing chamber: I put the dough on top and put on a hood from a large bag.

And I cook pasta in a confiture fryer and I definitely don't need a pasta cooker.

and I cook buckwheat in a double boiler, although this is not news! I learned how to make soup in the oven when the hob was covered in winter, and when I’m too lazy to take out the steamer, I take a glass pan and put the vegetables in it, then close the lid and put in the oven, so you can steam the vegetables

Soups in the oven are great, porridge too - the effect of languishing in a Russian stove.

Proofing the dough in a multicooker on heating for 20 minutes, then turn it off and leave until it doubles.

It is also possible in a slow cooker on a low setting for 30 minutes, then turn it off.
In a sandwich maker, you can fry eggs, omelet with fillings, small sausages, cheese cakes, pancakes.

There is a separate Temka about porridge, roast, hominy, kebabs, pilaf, etc.

In a chocolate maker she brewed good Turkish coffee.

and when I'm too lazy to take out the steamer, I take a glass pan and put the vegetables in it, then close the lid and put them in the oven, here are some vegetables for you

Can you give it more details?) and you don't need to pour some water anywhere? just vegetables in a glass saucepan with a lid? in a steamer then steaming food?
There is no steamer, I never cooked in it, but there was a time - I wanted to buy. and then I just read that you sometimes cook like that - if you like it - then I'll think about a double boiler. maybe you will like this method
or make a steamed fish .. because if you just put it in a saucepan, it will bake, and not steamed ...

valushka will not be baked, but will be stewed in its own juice, I sometimes make vegetables in a ceramic saucepan, I don't add water, because it will stand out in sufficient quantities from vegetables.

Can be in any container, but in foil

will it work in a double boiler? the taste will be the same?) I'm just wondering if the effect will be the same as in a double boiler or not, it's just also useful (because in its own juice) ...

Can be in any container, but in foil

but when I just bake fish in foil in the oven - is it the same thing?

Alexandra, thanks for the answer!) I often make fish in foil. I love it very much. it turns out yummy!) now I want to try making vegetables ...

Recipes for fish with vegetables in foil and correspondence about them were transferred here:

Alexandra's recipes and secrets of healthy eating - 2

and I am here

as Fadeeva already said, I learned to do a lot in a bread maker (until there was multi). the main convenience - it turns off itself and nothing burns.
and KHP successfully obtained milk porridge, porridge on the water, stew, baked chicken, fish baked in foil, baked potatoes.
there was a cartoon and now she does it all.

from new:
in a yogurt maker (or rather ON a yogurt maker) I put milk on cottage cheese, so that it sours faster. I put a three-liter jar on a yogurt maker and turn it on, the milk from below is heated and sour a little faster.
in the dishwasher ... washing a lot of fruit. Well, they brought me a huge bag of quince in the fall. (I hate washing it) I put it on the shelves in the dishwasher and turned on the gentle mode. of course without detergent.
the main thing is to turn off the dishwasher before drying begins. My PMM dries with very hot air - once I got a baked quince at the exit
after I got it out, I threw it into a large basin and just rinsed it out under the shower, no longer rubbed it, but simply poured it, just in case, so that there was no salt left from the PMM.

how! interesting! and baked milk .. can I make it in a bread maker? won't run away?
