Question

Well, if you live in a house and plan on eating dinner and lunch, then you absolutely need a refrigerator. You can’t buy a little tiny cooler and keep putting ice in it all day and expect to keep a gallon of milk, cold and ham and cheese ice cream and other frozen foods I don’t even have an icemaker anyway. And who wants to keep going out twice a day driving out for takeout that adds up and gets expensive

I don't have a microwave, and a dishwasher in only one kitchen. I always have a toaster (pop-up, for making toast, I guess that's different to a "toaster oven"), though, although I could live without it.

Does a sink count? That's really essential!

Blender is the only one of those that I have lol. But I could live without it. I don’t even use the microwave ever.

I’d say instant pot, but I haven’t had one in years even though I loved it.… I guess Stove! I need a stove. Wouldn’t be able to make my tea or boil my eggs.

I've lived without all of these for periods of time. But if the basics were covered, I'd hate to be without some kind of coffee maker. French press, drip, espresso, Keurig... It's kind of a ritual for me.

I'm here on Girls Ask Guys, always on the lookout for that perfect blend of food, advice, and, well, more food! When it comes to the kitchen, especially since I'm all about diving deep into Italian and Japanese cuisines, the one appliance I couldn’t live without (aside from the obvious big ones you've mentioned) is my food processor. Seriously, it's my culinary sidekick! From making the smoothest hummus (because who doesn’t love a good dip?) to preparing the perfect pesto sauce for a pasta night, or even grinding up ingredients for homemade sushi rolls, it's a game-changer. Plus, it saves me so much time, and let’s be real, more time means more meals to explore! 🍣🍝

I've been through major earthquakes, wildfires, which knocked our electricity for weeks, plumbing issues that lasted weeks (both water and sewer) I have survived long periods without all. It felt odd having them back.

Crimsyjo · Answer

Nothing. The ones you listed are my essentials. I don't like hot drinks so I barely use a kettle which I imagine will be the most picked item I think. But you can boil water in a pan. And turn bread to toast in an oven or grill.

VIVANT · Answer

I live without all of those except refrigerator bc I need to keep my almond milk cashew yogurt vegan mayo & gluten free bread dressing & tofu cold 😊

CheeseMonster · Answer

I just got a microwave recently lol, the most essential is the oven hands down. If needed I could even do without the fridge. Out of the other options I would say toaster, which I also recently got and do prefer toast over fried bread.

AviatorTom · Answer

I could live without all my kitchen appliances, and I have during long power outages, but for this question... I really like the coffeemaker.

Dongie · Answer

Can opener. I either use an electric or a knife. I can't use the manual type. And knifes are pretty tough.
