I recently read an old Parade magazine column by Sheila Lukins called “What’s Cookin.’” It featured an article entitled, “10 Kitchen Tools I Can’t Live Without.” (Page 8, April 3, 2005).

The author listed the following 10 kitchen tools, which she found necessary in the kitchen. I have to agree with her on most of them.

Here are the items:

Food processor (Just bought one)

Electric juicer (Don’t have one. Would be cool to have one.)

Pepper grinder (Need a new one. I have a cheap one that’s annoying)

Mini-chopper (I’m not sure about this one.)

Food scale (I have a small cheap one, but rarely use it.)

Measuring cups (Yes!)

Microplane rasp (Oh, yeah!)

Measuring spoons (Could always use new ones)

Instant-read meat thermometer (Hmmm… I dunno about this one…)

Mixing bowls (Could definitely use these)

 

What tools do you consider necessary in your kitchen?
