Have you ever thought about getting rid of some things and fitting your entire kitchen into one stock pot? Metal food tray and bowl, spork, cutting knife, small cutting board, wood spoon and spatula, small cast iron skillet, towels, kitchen brush, etc.? What are your must-haves?

If nothing else, let's throw together a house-warming gift for someone moving into their first apartment, dorm, home, etc. It should assume the person knows how to cook and can think outside the box. For example, you don't need a colander to eat pasta. You can cook the pasta in the sauce by adding a bit of water.

You shouldn't buy anyone any food or cooking related gifts, OP. In fact, you should probably never post here again.

This is literally all saying that you should cook your pasta in a pot until it's al dente, then add it into the sauce. Are you fucking retarded? Do you not know what "finishing" means?

What are you supposed to do when you need to use the giant pot then, wise guy? Just leave all your shit lying around since now you're using the empty space for other things? Just keep your kitchen organized normally, there's no need to stuff literally everything into a pot like a teenager hiding his dirty linen in a closet.

You put a cup under the colander to catch some of the starch water. Your meals are obviously still made by Mommy. Any cook knows this trick.

This thread had potential, but too many grown ass men thinks its ok to have worthless and petty arguments on a cooking board. This isn't a debate board, take your pathetic squabbling elsewhere.
