My Best Kitchen Tools These are products I continually use in my kitchen. I always get asked what to use when cooking or baking so I thought I’d put a simple shopping and info sheet together. The photos are linked right to Amazon so you can purchase them if you see what you like. Yes I do get a tiny 5% commission or so on anything you buy, but I deserve it, I worked hard on this for you, man. You can find similar items at any kitchen or housewares section of your stores as well. , this is all of course, in addition to your pots and pans and other kitchen things you may have. Enjoy!
12� pro whisk. You will love it for batters of any sorts and creaming together your sugar with butter or eggs.
Bench Scrapers- they help you move food around, they help you smooth cakes, they help cut dough into sizes. Spiral whisk is great for gravy making and frothing milk, also whisking egg whites!
Heat resistant tongs. Get the best kind and you will have it forever. Go for one that is resistant up to 400 degrees. Its great for stir fry, flipping garlic toast in the oven, serving salads and reaching things on the top shelf you cant normally get yourself
Heat resistant silicone whisk is great to use in your non stick pots and pans
I LOVE rubber spats- Great for those non stick pans, great for scraping every last bit of batter out, great for folding in whipped cream to mousse, get the heat safe kind.
Fish turner is what they are called but I use them for grilled cheese making, pancake flipping, and lasagna fetching.
I’ve had my original (orange ) set for 6 years. They rest on the side of your pan! Its genius and again, heat safe and great for non stick items! I’ve had my wooden salad hands since my wedding, yeah! You just have to hand wash them, but they are great for salads and serving rolls, or baked potato's. They are truly handy.
A large wooden spoon is a must, I cook with it, stir with it, use it as a microphone…it’s a staple for anyone learning to cook …or sing.
Appetizer tongs. I love them for serving up olives, cheese cubes, ice cubes and fruit!
A slotted fork spoon, this is Wes’ choice for pasta, but its great for scooping rice, too!
The fork whisk handles so much! Picking up noodles, to making pancake batter, to scrambling eggs! Fluffs Rice too!
I use this for hamburgers in the skillet, fritters, omelets and serving up pancakes!
A knife sharpener, - I use it with my chef and chopping knives the most
A 2 oz scooper! Perfect for portioning cupcakes, cookies, meatballs and frosting! I don’t know an Asian without this, great for dunking things to get fried and then scooping them out
A set of non slip, grooved, cutting boards, they catch juices, and you can flip it over and use the pretty side as a serving tray—yeah!
Salt jar with spoon, true cooks salt everything and whats a pinch, just use the scoop to really gauge what your salt
Large sheet trays for baking, roasting, I even roll out dough on it to keep the flour off my counters.
4 cup glass liquid measuring cup. Lots of soup mixes ask for 8 cups, done you need to fill this up twice, some recipe's need heated milk, done, just go up to the measuring line and zap it in the microwave.
Mixing bowls that double as serving bowls
Splatter guard, also a great cover for food outside
