The Kitchn's Guide to Essential Prep Tools & Utensils

What are the essential tools every cook needs in the kitchen? Both new and experienced cooks can benefit from going back to the basics. First up: essential prep tools and utensils. Note: We’ve offered a few product recommendations in each category based on personal preferences, experience, and editor and reader reviews. In general, we favor stainless steel and glass over plastic because it’s higher quality and infinitely more durable (and we think that balances out the higher cost).
