Modern day kitchens are not just a place where you cook meals. Instead they are now becoming the face of your home. With their ergonomic, modular designs, artistic panels, and an array of multipurpose appliances, kitchens are beginning to take centerstage when it comes to showing off your home to the guests. Kitchens, however, do not need to be all about pomp and show. Essentially, it needs to be an enjoyable, easy place to work with complex-yet-handy tools and appliances, ensuring that you can prepare mouth-watering cuisines with minimum effort. The blog post discusses four kitchen tools that can make your cooking enjoyable and time saving.
1. Cookware
One of the most important accessories of a cook’s armory is the cookware. You never quite gave a second thought to all those pans, skillets, and stockpots, before cooking in them, but no kitchen is complete without these utilities. A nonstick skillet in your kitchen enables you to prepare delicious omelets and pancakes. You can use the large, stainless saucepans for preparing aromatic, spicy broths and soups for supper.
2. Knives
All those butcher blocks, complete with differently-sized knives look awesome on the countertop in your kitchen. However, you only require three of these sharp entities- a serrated knife, a paring knife and a 10-inch chef’s knife for all your chopping needs. Good quality knives have riveted, wooden or plastic handles, and sharp stainless steel or chrome-coated blades for long-term performance.
3. Measuring Cups and Spoons
One of the most underrated tools in your kitchen are the measuring cups and spoons. However, a complete set of measuring spoons and cups are enough to handle all your needs. Measuring cups, with their sturdy handles, and pour spouts are very efficient in measuring liquids for preparing recipes such as cakes, brownies, and cookies. Measuring spoons are ideal for measuring dry ingredients such as baking powder, cocoa powder, and spices for your baked recipes and curries.
4. Slow Cooker
Also known as crock pots, slow cookers allow you to cook recipes by simmering the ingredients, instead of frying, boiling or baking them. For busy homeowners who have very limited time in their hands to prepare a meal, could benefit a great deal with these crock pots. All you need to do is to throw in all your ingredients into a slow cooker, adjust the timer and temperature settings, and forget all about it. Slow cookers are very efficient in preparing unattended food recipes such as pot roasts, stews, and soups.
Wrapping up
Cooking is all about preparing some mouth-watering recipes that are not only delicious to eat but also healthy. The
useful kitchen appliances such as slow cookers, cookware and knives make it easy to prepare some of your favorite recipes without any hassles. The kitchen appliances also save time when preparing your favorite cuisines.
