Setting Up Your Kitchen: Kitchen Tools for Everyone

Kitchen gadgets and tools should always be kept to a minimum in order to free up space and time.  Always keep your essential tools together in a drawer or in a pitcher on your counter.  If space permits, hang your knives using a magnetic strip near your prep area.

The Well Appointed Kitchen: Pots, Pans, and Appliances.

Your selection of pots, pans, and appliances should be a reflection of your cooking ambitions.  Strive to replace your lesser-quality pots and pans with high-quality brands which ensure more even heat distribution and a more enjoyable cooking experience. Ideally, pots and pans are stored in a pull-out drawer or overhead rack near your stove.
