It's all well and good to have a well stocked pantry, along with the best-quality ingredients in your kitchen, but if you don't have quality kitchen tools to cook with you might as well stop now and order take-out. Just kidding, but seriously having the proper equipment can be the difference between a good meal and a great meal. Here is a list of must needs in your kitchen:
- Knives --- Good Quality. I like MAC and Wusthof and keep them sharpened.
- Sharpening Stones
- Spatulas (Rubber, Flat & Fish)
- Wooden Spoons
- Cutting Boards
- Box Grater
- Half Sheet Trays
- Silpat (At least one)
- Wire Whisk
- Measuring Cups
- Measuring Spoons
- Pastry Brush
- Tongs
- Mixing Bowls
- Spice Grinder
- Kitchen Twine
- Mandolin Slicer
- Food Processor
- Kitchen-Aid Mixer
- Immersion Blender
- Grill Pan
- Pots and Pans --- Spend money on good quality pots and pans. I like All-Clad and Le-Creuset. They are both very expensive, but last forever. Sometimes you can find both these brands at places like TJ Maxx and Marshalls. It's worth the money. Trust me.
