Do you want a kitchen that is enjoyable, convenient and easy to work with? Then make sure your kitchen tools and ingredients are complete, your sink is cleared from dirty dishes and your work surfaces are spotless. Your kitchen needs great tools like any other great workspaces. Make meals fast and tasty by following these tips from Cobas Investments, LLC:
Are you on a tight budget? Don’t worry. Investing wisely on kitchen items won’t hurt your wallet.
- A good-quality stove. This is an indispensable appliance. Since this is the appliance that you’ll be using most often, then having one in good quality is a wise investment. You need one that is well-built with sturdy knobs and one that burns evenly.
- A capacious oven and sturdy stand mixer. Do you love baking? Then this is highly essential. It’s every baker’s dream to have an oven that is large, where the air has enough room to circulate and one that distributes heat evenly. Hmm, well-baked cupcakes, served fresh from a great oven! A stand mixer, on the other hand, is a good investment as it efficiently mixes batter, which cuts down preparation time significantly.
Do you have some extra cash to buy for more items? Then add these on your list:
- Food processor. It could puree food quickly and smoothly, cutting down preparation time versus when you do it manually.
- Oven toaster. This is important for toasting and heating up food, like bread and sandwiches, without t he need to switch on and preheat a regular oven.
- Blender or hand-blender. This is important for those who like preparing shakes, smoothies, and for pureeing soup.
- Microwave. This is very useful for quick thawing and quick heating.
- A spacious refrigerator or freezer. If you have a large family or run a small food business, extra fridge space is absolutely essential. More spaces to fill it with more ice cream tubs, too!
Some basic kitchenware you need to splurge on:
- Pots and pans. Good-quality ones are made of stainless steel that’s thick all around – bottom and sides – so that the pan heats up evenly.
- Baking sheets and cake pans. Good-quality ones are made of thick and heavy aluminum and are molded seamlessly, meaning, they don’t have seams in the corner where the batter can leak out. Non-stick is all right but not necessary. What’s more important is that they’re thick and well-made.
- Knives. Good-quality ones are made from a single piece of carbon steel and are hand-forged. Avoid ones that are thin, with insubstantial hilts and handles that are covered thickly in plastic. It must feel comfortable in your hand.
- Tongs, colanders, graters, and other cooking tools. Stainless steel is preferable because it is easy to clean, it is more sanitary than plastic, and odors don’t cling to steel.
