Our favorites Specialty
gadgets and workhorses we use day in, day out:
Charcoal
Chimney Come on, baby, light my fire. And forget
the starter fluid!
Citrus
Zester The citrus skin, I discovered, contains
concentrated oil that is remarkably flavorful, as well as
very colorful. I was onboard with the citrus zester.
Oil
Can I keep two oil cans out near my stove--one
with peanut oil, and one with olive oil.
Lemon
Reamer It's not as dirty as it sounds. It is, in fact,
a fabulous citrus juice extractor.
Pepper
Grinder My favorite line from Alice in Wonderland
and my battle cry in the kitchen are one in the same: MORE
PEPPER!
Silicone
spatulas I use them for everything from batter
to stir-fry to lifting crepes. Of my obnoxious collection
of utensils shown above, this is one of the few I used absolutely
every day.
Tongs
When it comes to tongs, their quality's not important--simply
having them's the thing.
Zyliss
garlic press I can squeeze even a hearty clove
of Elephant garlic using just three fingers of my right hand,
and best of all--the clove doesn't even have to be peeled.
