(Food-Beverage-News.Com, November 25, 2014 ) Buffalo, WY -- Thanksgiving is the perfect opportunity to showcase one's cooking skills. The cooking involved, though, is one tough kitchen challenge. In taking over the reins of the kitchen this Thanksgiving, contemporary kitchenware manufacturer Finesseur says it is very important to be equipped with the right set of cooking tools.
"Cooking skills will only take you so far. Without the necessary tools to help you out, the task of preparing and cooking a lot of meals for one night will be much harder," explains Finesseur spokesperson Allison Montgomery.
Having the right kitchen essentials not only makes the preparation and cooking easier. It also ensures a smoother, more efficient cooking process. It can help enhance one's cooking skills as well.
"When you have reliable tools, you become more systematic and organized in your cooking. You will be more efficient in how you delegate your time for each cooking task, and you find yourself getting better and faster in tackling even the most difficult recipes," relates Montgomery.
More importantly, using trusted kitchen tools can help make Thanksgiving recipes more delicious. Adds Montgomery, "With the right set of kitchen tools by your side, you are more confident to cook. They set you off on a right frame of mind, inspiring you to create the most amazing dishes everyone will love."
To make cooking and baking for this year's Thanksgiving celebration easier and stress-free, Montgomery shares the essential kitchen tools that cooks should have in their kitchens.
Roasting pan A good stainless steel roasting pan is for roasting the turkey and other meats, so they will cook evenly and for bringing out the roasted fare in and out of the oven with ease.
Cutting boards Having just one cutting board won't do. Having a few more sturdy and durable cutting boards can make cutting and serving meats, vegetables, and fruits a breeze.
Chef's knife A good chef's knife is important to enable easy and fast cutting jobs. With this flexible tool, chopping,slicing and dicing vegetables and other food items can be done with minimal effort. Make sure that the knife is sharp and durable enough to do a variety of chopping chores. "Investing in a good quality chef's knife can serve you well in the long run," says Montgomery. "A high-quality chef's knife, like the Finesseur Ceramic 8-inch Chef's Knife for example, provides the perfect combination of sharpness and durability that you can rely on for effortless food preparation not just on Thanksgiving but all year round."
Cooking thermometer An instant-read meat thermometer monitors the temperature of the turkey as it roasts, ensuring that it is cooked precisely the way it should be.
Mixing bowls Mixing bowls are extremely important for mixing baking ingredients, stuffing, side dishes and other food items.
Kitchen scale A kitchen scale is needed to ensure accurate measurements of baking ingredients. Look for one that enables fast yet accurate measurements. "The Finesseur Digital Food Scale is a good investment to keep baking recipes in check. It is very useful for non-liquid ingredients that need precise measurements, like flour and sugar," shares Montgomery.
Rolling pin and whisk Baking heavenly delights will not be possible without these essential tools. Look for an easy-to-use rolling pin that can be maneuvered without much effort, and a durable, versatile whisk that can be used for whipping, beating, mixing and scraping.
Gravy separator Using this tool can help separate the fat from the pan gravy for a delicious, more flavorful turkey.
Kitchen timer Cooking different dishes simultaneously is tough, especially if they all have different cooking times. A digital kitchen timer makes tracking their cooking progress fuss-free.
These are just a few of the necessities cooks need for a successful Thanksgiving feast. "Whether it's for big occasions or simple ones, you can never go wrong with the right set of kitchen tools. Consider getting these tools as early Holiday gifts for yourself, or for your loved ones, especially those who share your love for cooking," concludes Montgomery.
