I must be the only Jew who has a designated sandwichmaker for Passover.
And the only Ashkenazi Jew with a rice cooker.
Wanna know why?
1) The Sandwichmaker:
I use the sandwichmaker to make "Eggy Triangles With Cheese" for my children. First, place the sandwichmaker into a dairy baking pan (or a disposable pan) and plug it in. This can be a messy process and it will save you from chasing runny eggs down your counters.
Next just whip up some eggs as you would do for scrambled eggs and pour them CAREFULLY into the sandwichmaker, one triangle at a time. I have found that spooning the eggs in works really well, but it's a bit slower. Leave a little room before you totally fill up triangles, if you want to add cheese (Just lay it on top) Then close the sandwichmaker. You'll eggy triangles will be ready in about 5 minutes.
I really enjoy using a sandwichmaker this way because you don't have to watch them carefully like you would on a stovetop. They don't get burned easily and the sandwichmaker is easier to clean than a pan after making eggs.
I have also found that you can make grilled cheese matzah sandwiches this way. Just break off a piece of matzah to roughly fit in each square, lay a piece of cheese on top, the put another piece of matzah on the top and lightly close the lid. (It can be a smaller piece, just enough to keep the middle part of the sandwich maker from going directly into the cheese. Your "sandwich" will be ready within a minute or two -- and no gebrotks!
2) The Rice Cooker
For Quinoa -- of course! I LIVE on quinoa during passover. I just add cut up vegetables and drizzle with olive oil and fresh lemon juice.
Anyone else use any kitchen gadgets "Creatively" on pesach?
