What are the most basic cooking tools? January 20, 2010
The most basic cooking tools are the skillet, a pan, a pot, a spatula, wooden spoon, and a fork. I used this every time I cook and frankly this is all I need to make a good meal for my family. I used the skillet to cook bacon and meats as well as chicken and fish. I used the pan to heat soups and boil small items. I used the pot to make pasta, and boil potatoes to make mash potatoes or to make home made chicken soups.
You don’t need too many items for cooking just the very basics to make a wonderful meal. Always remember if you are using regular pots and pans as well as skillets, used a rubber or a wooden spatula that way you do not scratch the surface. I use the fork when cooking meat or chicken on the skillet. I used the spatula when I make fish that way the fish does not crumble. Remember as well to never turn the heat all the way or you will burn your skillets and pots and pans as well as you will not make such a good meal. cooking does not take a lot but it does take alittle of love.
You do not need lots of tools to create a good meal for friends and families, all you need to have is just the knowledge of how to cook the items and what to used. Always improvise on everything you have to create a wonderful and memorable meal for everyone to enjoy.
