Basic Kitchen Equipment

Cooking can be a pleasure, and it can be a chore. To prevent the day-to-day preparing of meals becoming drudgery, it helps immensely to have good, well-made kitchen equipment. That is not to say that you need indulge in expensive professional pans and tools, but you should buy the finest equipment you can afford, adding to your collection as your budget allows and when you have a better idea of what you will actually use.

Good equipment lasts for ever, so the investment is worth it, paying you back time and time again with reliability and service. Poorly made kitchen equipment that is flimsy and liable to break, buckle or burn, will cause you great frustration, and will make cooking an onerous task that you will want to avoid.
