Every Soviet kitchen had these items, now they can not find a worthy replacement. Bashny.Net

In the Soviet Union, everything was done on conscience, including household utensils. The kitchen buffet holds many treasures. Unkillable meat grinders, canned openers and garlic mowers serve faithfully for 30, 40, or even 50 years!



You've probably noticed that in a cast-iron pan, potatoes taste better than in a Teflon pan. And you can put a mountain of dumplings quickly and simply with the help of an old iron dumpling. We have collected 7 reliable Soviet gadgets that will be a worthy competitor to modern kitchen appliances.

1. The dumpling. To serve juicy dumplings for lunch, the modern hostess is enough to rush to the neighboring store for ready-made semi-finished products. But it still tastes better at home! If there is a round grandmother dumpling at hand, muddy cooking turns into a pleasant fun.

   Yes, the Soviet iron dumpling weighs under a kilogram, or even more. But the dough will not stick to it, and it will never fail, unlike modern rectangular analogues made of plastic. Such an assistant is not a sin to inherit granddaughters and even great-granddaughters.
   
   
2. Hand grinder. What would we do without a modern electric car? And the mince will grind (1.5 kg of meat per minute is a joke), and the vegetables are sewn, and even the juice will squeeze. Comfortable, fast and safe. Song! And as the lights are turned off an hour before the arrival of guests, a savior appears from the bins - an old but strong mechanical meat grinder, on which a young grandmother still has meat for grilled meat. And it helps the case, and strengthens the hand.
   
   
   
   
   
   
3. Canned opener. Modern canned knives are not the most reliable comrades in the kitchens and in hiking. Their age is short, and it usually takes a lot of effort to open the container. Is it a good old Soviet opener with a wooden handle?

   Universal device is equipped with a blade for uncorking canned food and a small hook that can remove metal covers from glass cans.
   
   
4. Garlic press.

   Soviet garlic cutters will give a head start to their modern “successors”. It takes a lot of effort to break this aluminum monolith. Such a device is not covered with rust, does not bend, and crush garlic with its help quickly and easily.
   
   

Another utensil from the USSR cast iron pan. It does not shine with either elegance of forms or an even Teflon coating. The younger generation squeamishly bypasses the old cast-iron pan side, and very in vain! After all, it is on it that you get matchless dishes with a soul.





The advantage of such dishes is in the special properties of cast iron. It heats up gradually and evenly, so the food is thoroughly fried and does not burn. Such a treasure can be transferred with a light heart to descendants and do not worry about the quality of dishes that children and grandchildren will eat.

Hazel. Appetite nuts with condensed (and also mushrooms, cones, bears and fish - depending on the shape of the device) have become a favorite dessert for many generations. During the Union, caring mothers pleased their children with sweet pastries, using cast-iron hazel.

Today, you can easily find a compact and lightweight electric analogue. I quickly laid the dough, waited a few minutes - it's done! And there's no heat control for each half of the shape. But many people say that this cookie tastes wrong.

Manual juicer. To treat yourself to fresh natural juice, you can try your luck in the deli (do you want a horse dose of sugar?). You can make a healthy drink with your own hands. Electric juicers quickly resolve the issue, but they are usually quite large and short-lived.

Another thing is a compact mechanical device of Soviet production. It's just a find that a good landlady would never send to a landfill.
