Flexibility
I went out on Saturday night, and Eli 21.11 stayed home and made a nice salmon dinner with rice."I need to show you the rice cooker," I said, because I noticed there was a pot with rice residue in the sink. "Then you can just put it in and forget it."
"Pretty easy either way," he said.
"I wonder if I could cook salmon in the rice cooker," I said. "There's a vegetable tray, so it seems like you could just put in rice, put in salmon and the vegetables in the tray on top, and cook everything at the same time."
"Wait, salmon in the rice cooker?" he asked. "I don't think it would work, because everything cooks for a different length of time. Why not use the oven?"
"That's okay," I said. "I can just use the dishwasher.
"WHAT?"
"I know that's definitely a thing," I said. "I've read about it for years."
"People will do anything to avoid using the ***damn oven," he groused. "It's ridiculous."
"If that bothers you, you're really going to hate hearing about people cooking salmon on their car's engine," I said.
"Agghhh!"
[I checked later, and salmon in the rice cooker is definitely a thing.]
