Knives

Victorinox has become my go-to knife brand throughout the kitchen. After many years of daily use, these knives still perform as well as when they emerged from their boxes. Although they have an inexpensive price tag, they are ready to use and stay sharp without the need for routine sharpening.

Ice Cream Scoops

The versatility of an ice cream scoop goes beyond ice cream, which makes it a great addition to any kitchen. Ice cream scoop sizes range from #70 (smallest) to #20 (largest). Each size corresponds to the number of scoops that can be obtained from a quart of ice cream. Ice cream scoops are great for measuring uniform cookie dough balls and vegan ‘meatballs’ along with quickly filling muffin and cupcake pans. The most common scoop size for dispensing cookie dough is #40, which is about 1.6 tablespoons of dough.

Food Storage and Labeling

The most versatile storage containers happen to be simple, plastic deli-style containers. They offer universal lids, easily stack for compact storage, and are available in a variety of sizes.

Whether mixing salad dressings or sauces, preparing home-made jams or pickles, or blending up a smoothie to-go, mason jars provide a plethora of helpful uses.

Properly labeled food in the pantry, fridge, and freezer ensures that ingredients are not forgotten or spoiled before being utilized. The easiest method to label containers is a roll of painters tape and a permanent marker. It may not appear glamorous, but it is quick and convenient. Remember to identify and date every container, so you are not wondering about the origins of long-forgotten mystery ingredients found in the back of the freezer.

Olive Oil

Graza Olive Oil is fairly new to the market, beginning in 2021, but offers a great alternative to the commonly found brands. Picked, pressed and bottle in Jaen, Spain, Graza offers a fresh vegetal taste complemented by peppery notes without overpowering other ingredients. A great deal of thought was placed into the design of the Graza bottle. Traditional olive oil bottles lack control when pouring and often leaves the bottle coated with oil. The ingenuity of the squeeze bottle offers exact precision, quick accessibility, and pour control to ensure you don’t saturate your food with oil.
