Must Have Equipment

Sorry for the delay, I just came back from a soccer tour in Arizona with the Hawai'i team. 3rd place, not bad.

Here is some basic equipment that you definitely should have:

  • Dry measuring cups - Duh!
  • Dry measuring cups- Brand to buy: Pyrex. I have 2 of them, one for up to 1 cup and then another that goes to 5 cups.
  • Digital scale: I own a OXO digital scale. Reliable, easy to use, it makes recipes with weights a breeze. Just press Zero and keep adding ingredients. A must for Good eats recipes.
  • Half sheet pan, have a least 2. I have like three. 
  • Loaf Pans, at least 2- Bakers Secret best brand.
  • Square Loaf Pan
  • Cake pans. I already have shown my hatred towards them. But I have found a place where I think has the @#%#% I'm looking for. click here.
  •  Glass baking dish: Pyrex all day long baby! Stick with them and you will succeed.
  • Pie plate: again Pyrex
  • Tube Pan
  • Muffin tin: Get a nonstick PLEASE
  • 2 sizes of skillets, big and small (All-Clad)
  • 3 sizes of saucepans (All-Clad)
  • 1 Nonstick skillet- I use it only in recipes that call for it, instead I use this:
  • Cast Iron Skillet- With even heating, no emissions that cause cancer, this is the only green non-stick skillet you can get your hands on.
  • A big Pot- for stock, soup, bread, and to use as a shield for kitchen raids (you may have those, I do)
