The best way to please someone is to make their favorite food
Reddit is really filled with these quotes and most of them do make sense- just like this. The best way to please someone is indeed through food prepared in your kitchen. And the more complex the food, the more kitchen appliances we have to use.
But do you know what they are called? How about Nepali Names for Kitchen appliances? Since we are Nepali we can’t just use English names for a lot of Nepali are not familiar with them. For instance, you can’t just ask a bar of soap by asking “Malai Soap Dinus” when you go and buy soap, you need to say “Malai sabun Dinus” because a lot of Nepal shopkeepers have no idea what a soap means. Even if they do, saying Soap Just feels weird.

While we may know the Nepali names for some general-use kitchen appliances, there is still a lot that we don’t know.
