Since recent kitchen remodel I am discarding stuff I don't need and always on the shopping prowl for things I think would enhance my kitchen needs.
Can't have enough cutting boards or smoothie shakers.
Beginning to think rice cooker is a waste. Tonight I made Spanish rice and just used a pot with a lid. I bought the rice cooker at an estate sale and thought I was going to have to duke it out with a lady that tried to walk off with my box of purchases. Heck, now I would just give it to her and tell her to keep her money because she has been chosen as the recipient of a gift. It is just more to wash than a regular pot/pan.
The latest purchase that I am tickled pink about I found for two bucks at Tuesday Morning. It is a little 4 piece set all red, white, and black (my kitchen colors) of little servers for olives, pickles, etc. It has a little 3 prong fork, a slotted micro spoon, mini tongs, and another mini spoon. It is by Emeril (bam!) and is just too handy.
And then there are the little hot pad holders for the handles of the personal size cast iron skillets. Along with the Spanish rice on them tonight I served quesadillas and refried beans topped with cheese, onion, lettuce, tomato, and sour cream. (Blew the diet for a night, oh well.)
What must haves or must get rid ofs do you all have?
