I was given it by a friend but she challenged me to find out what it is. It’s a kitchen utensil, I have no idea and I need help!!

@NC4Now

Wow, there’s a kitchen gadget my mum doesn’t own! She has a cherry stoner, meat thermometer and melon baller. Christmas 2020 sorted ✔️
🤣🤣 I want to meet your mum to compare ‘gadgets’ 🤣🤣

I bought my adult dd one last year .
Every Easter she saves eggshells and pops a mini chocolate egg in and some rice paper confetti then seals the egg shell with tissue paper.
The children have fun throwing the egg bombs .
So now you know .

An iron for caramelising cremes brulee?

A crepe batter-smoothing-type thing?

TheFormerPorpentinaScamander · 27/09/2020 22:19

Well there's a gadget I never knew existed! And a stocking filler for the dcs sorted Grin

DeRigueurMortis · 27/09/2020 22:20

Dame Celia has it!

It's what cooks/chefs used for caramelising the sugar on a creme brûlée before we had kitchen blow torches (and thank god we do now!).

They are bloody difficult to use and get the sugar caramelised evenly (and not burnt) - plus quite dangerous as they need to be red hot.

What about a duck carcass press if you've a spare 3 grand, OP?

Yum lido (blerk really).

I think an Egg Skelter, for a return gift?

Louyoga · 28/09/2020 18:22

It look s like s cherry/olive stoner to me - olive or cherry goes into the cup bit then the two parts are squeezed together and the sone pops out!

The toilet roll helping machine is funny and the boogie man disgusting. I’m not sure I’ll have much use for a duck carcass press, can I use it for the Sunday roast chicken instead??

There's a movie that might give some ideas for it.

It was called Too Many Chefs

SHONNYSMUMMY · 28/09/2020 20:03

@Foggyday124 it's a space heater you use it for eggs..

The calm before the storm, 2 fighters the night before the big fight.

The battle of the egg crackers starts at breakfast (and yes I really do need to get out of the house more)

I think it's a melon baller

Trumpton · 28/09/2020 20:59

@Ontheboardwalk
I bought both of those last year to put into dds’ boxes ! They were ages working out what they were !

Ontheboardwalk · 28/09/2020 21:07

Trumpton I’m confused by them and I ordered them myself!

I'd have no idea if I was given them as a pressie. Think I might give some at Christmas to confuse people

portobella · 29/09/2020 13:34

It's an egg separater

dysongirl · 02/10/2020 01:20

Is it a measuring spoon??Hmm

This reminds me of Bridget Jones' mother demonstrating the 'Have it Oeuf'
