Kitchen Tool Preparation
Essential Cookware: A set of non-stick frying pans, a saucepan, and a stockpot are must-haves. Non-stick pans are ideal for eggs and delicate foods, while saucepans and stockpots are great for boiling, simmering, and stewing. Choose pots and pans with sturdy handles and even heat distribution.
Cutting Tools: A sharp chef's knife, a paring knife, and a cutting board are essential. A sharp knife makes chopping and slicing easier and safer. Invest in a high-quality knife and have it sharpened regularly. A wooden or bamboo cutting board is gentle on knives and easy to clean.
Cooking and Serving Utensils: Wooden spoons, spatulas, and ladles are useful for stirring, flipping, and serving. They won't scratch non-stick surfaces and are heat-resistant. A set of measuring cups and spoons is also important for accurate ingredient measurements.
