i have been thinking about the tools that are in my cluttered kitchen, and realizing i rarely use most of them, and there is a long list of things i would like to add to my kitchen. so with that in mind, what are the top 5 tools/appliances that you can't live without?
Posted by karine on November 03, 2003 | TrackBackhm. good question!
1 - chefs knife
2 - microplane grater
3 - kitchen aid mixer, but i only use the whisk beater!
wow. that's pretty much it for me for every day tools.
I have a potato masher I use. and a garlic press.
Everything else is standard utensils (like big spoons) and pots and pans. I guess I'm a pretty simple girl.
Not inlcuding pots 'n' pans....
1. My 8" chef's knife.
2. Coffee grinder.
3. Coffee pot.
4. Tongs.
5. The big baking stone that lives in my oven.
Tom did a top 10 list a while back.
