Utterly useless kitchen gadgets from the 'Utterly Useless Kitchen Gadgets & Co.Ltd'.

An Egg Boiler. Pop it in the pan along with the eggs and it changed colour according to whether you wanted it soft boiled - medium - or hard. The trouble was that you were unable to see what was happening due to the bubbles and steam, or failing that you had to keep watching (because the change from one colour to the other was instant) and lifting the thing out of the pan with a holed spoon.

Long since relegated to the bin.

  Darn it!!   Missed all the fun again           

 Would never have picked it for a bread roll thingy

[*crikey*mate* · Accepted solution]

I was leaning more for scones - never seen something like that to cut breadrolls - just use a metal scraper thing for that and we roll em round by hand, or some places (especially bakeries) have a machine, but there is a technique to get em round with the curved bit on top and the air pocket on the base in the centre

It would be too big for scones. I'm told it was used by bakeries. Not the big commercial ones, the little town bakeries that baked their bread and pastries in the wee hours of the night for sale the next morning.

(but I still think it might be a squirrel tenderiser)

cool.probably right IU'd say - sounds legit.

I couldn't tell how big it was, but I had seen ravioli cutters like that in homeware kitchen stores - sort of like that, but with fluted edges and on a roller like a paint roller - son I was thinking along those lines.
