-- Please discuss your kitchen hardware/tools/cooking utensils etc...
Hi Guys.

So in this thread I'd be interested in the following:

- newer tools that you use that are not as common

- common utensils that you have in the kitchen that are staples for your cooking.

- Old family treasure passed down to you - such as a special knife or something useful like that.

- A few more items you may consider discussing - Cutting-boards, knives (again), presses, spatula's, maybe pancake turners/spatula's.

- I'm okay with even going as far as spices in your spice-rack.



Lately I don't have a bunch to brag about - I did recently drop about $350 at Burlington Coat Factory (of all places) on cookware (I had nothing decent since the divorce) - they had a lot of unique things, one of my sautee skillets is ceramics and has the best handle for flipping pasta's (or whatever) - another thing I had discovered there was a really nice bacon press. I will get the brand-name a little later on this weekend.

I will add photo's over the weekend, hopefully.


I wanted the thread to drop tonight though, so please share anything that's cool, special or especially 'useful' for your throwing down in the kitchen.


Thanks guys.

Look forward to hearing about and/or seeing your gear.

There was a poster you may not be familiar with who was banned for making clear he was using 'ninja' as code. FMBall was making a funny.

lol!! Oh golly. Houstonwhodat. I knew all about that. Still went right over my head.

I assumed he was giving me a hard time because I got the Ninja(raceless blender) instead of the Vitamix. I remembered him debating the two in a previous thread(a thread started by houstonwhodat, coincidentally).

My wife uses it a lot and considers it indispensable. Since it was so old, we jumped on a Kitchenaid Pro Black Friday deal several years ago. We got it home and found it was about an inch too tall to fit under our cabinets, so it's still sitting in it's box. Fortunately, the green machine is still pluggin' along.

Also, since I am starting to cook a lot more with beans, I want to get a pressure cooker but haven't figured out what I want yet. They get expensive fast.

Got a good deal on Thai Kitchen Premium. Picked up 5 or so bottles.



That reminds me, referring back to another thread, fish sauce is AWESOME to cook brussels sprouts in.

Also a great component in any beef marinade for Asian flair. Fish, soy, sugar and cayenne make some awesome beef strip marinade for serving over rice.

If you want any input, I went through a ton of research about a year ago myself.

We like to buy a tri tip roast and cut it into 1.5" thick steaks. We then marinate the steaks in a mix of peanut oil, soy sauce, fish sauce, pepper and lemongrass for 24 hours and grill 'en up after that. They are amazing.
