breakfast machine was originally a small appliance that "pressed" toast until it was golden and caramelized.
At the end of 2021, netizens were still debating whether it was an IQ tax. Just one year later, no one cares about this issue anymore, because it has evolved into a "new species"-everything can be suppressed, and even broken.
's entry-level breakfast machine is to press small cooked foods, such as egg pancakes and sausages.
The method is very simple. Brush a layer of oil on the baking sheet, spread the food flat on it, close the lid of the breakfast machine, take it out of the oven after 2-3 minutes, brush it with chili sauce or barbecue sauce, and it's ready to eat.

The cooking principle of the breakfast machine is roasting, and it also has a "violent crushing" function with external intervention. In the eyes of netizens, this has the conditions to make five dishes and one soup.
As a result, some people began to push for quick-frozen food.
The dumplings and glutinous rice balls that had just been taken out of the refrigerator were all frozen into a big lump and could not be broken apart, so they were put into the breakfast machine. No need to brush with oil, it will turn into water after the ice melts, so there will be no sticking to the pan and burning.

What should I do if the ingredients are frozen hard and the lid of the breakfast machine cannot be closed?
Netizens will tell you that nothing is difficult in the world, as long as you are willing to work hard. Press the lid with your hand and heat it for a few minutes. When the ingredients become soft, close the lid and continue to press. It's done.
With this method, you can eat dumpling cakes, glutinous rice balls, shaomai cakes, barbecued pork buns, rice cakes, and crispy rice cakes.
Come and eat glutinous rice balls. / Xiaohongshu blogger @ Another style cup
Pressing a piece of meat and eating it is natural.
No matter how thick the steak is, the raw meat patty sandwiched between burgers, or the canned ham in the supermarket (the can cannot be pressed), you don't even need to cut it into slices. Put the whole piece of meat into the breakfast machine and it will make you eat.

Slowly, someone began to crush the raw fish—yes, a complete fish. After cleaning the fish internal organs, marinate with seasonings and then press! Press hard!
Perhaps, this fish imagined that it would be fried and fried, but it never expected that it would be so shameful to be pressed and cooked.

In addition to meat, there are also vegetables that do not need to be cut. Whole potatoes, green peppers, King Oyster mushrooms , broccoli , and even large eggplants can be cooked in a breakfast machine.
What should I do if the ingredients are too big to fit? It doesn't matter, press in stages, even if it takes a little more time, don't take out the knife.
According to bloggers who have successfully cooked it (without burning it), these vegetable purees taste the same as those eaten at barbecue stalls outside. Except for the strange appearance, they are all good.

But the breakfast machine’s “sad life” is not over yet, and it never thought that it could still make desserts.
For example, kiwifruitand pineapple are chopped and cooked to make a sweet and caramel fruit and vegetable pie, or you can directly heat the sugar cubes into syrup and drink it with water.
Don’t ask why you don’t use a non-stick pan to cook sugar. According to the logic of netizens, if a breakfast machine can complete the task, why do you need to wash an extra pan?

The ultimate method of breakfast machine is to extract oil, or to be precise, "remove oil".
Sausages, Fried pork chops , Pan-fried dumplings and other foods have a lot of fat and are very fragrant, but they can easily become greasy after a few bites. So some people suggested that before eating, put them in a breakfast machine and press them for two minutes to squeeze out some of the oil.
Although the food has been pressed dry, the fat has become visible in the breakfast machine, which seems to improve our eating mood: "Today I reduced my fat intake, and I can fall off the scale again."

However, the breakfast machine is just for fun. If it is regarded as the only cooking utensil, it seems that the home will lose its fireworks.
After all, the food made by the breakfast machine all has the same flavor - barbecue flavor. The simplified cooking process of pressing and opening will also lead to half the sense of participation and fun in life.
The most important thing is that the breakfast machine itself is annoying -
"If I had known that I had to make so many weird things, I would have died in the factory."
