What kitchen utensils do you need?

It's not easy to know which utensils to have in your kitchen. What tools do you need when you have moved out of your home and are furnishing your first kitchen? One way to think about it is to consider what your favourite dishes are. Then start from them, think about what you need for cooking and then invest in good quality, timeless kitchen utensils. In our wide range of kitchen utensils, you'll find everything you need to cook and keep your kitchen tidy. In addition to chopping boards, grinders and food boxes, you'll also find storage jars and paper towel holders from well-known brands such as Alessi, Hay and Georg Jensen.

Which cutting board is the best?

A chopping board is a must for most types of cooking, but is a wooden chopping board really the best choice or should you buy one in a different material? A chopping board made of beech or pine, for example, gives a sturdy and solid feel. You can use it for chopping vegetables as well as for cutting meat. We recommend washing wooden chopping boards by hand and wiping them with a towel. Avoid soaking them and feel free to lubricate them with cooking oil to keep them in good condition. A cutting board made of durable polyethylene plastic is hygienic and prevents the spread of bacteria. Plastic chopping boards are easier to clean as they have the advantage of being machine washable. There are advantages and disadvantages to both wooden and plastic cutting boards. It is not possible to say that one of them is better, but you have to go by what you appreciate for its characteristics.

Kitchen utensils are a perfect gift to give as a present

Kitchen utensils often become a cherished gift for most people. A set of mills in a stylish design or with a beautiful pattern is an excellent birthday gift. A wooden chopping board is also suitable for gifting and can be a bit of extra fun as it is not only useful but can also be used for serving and as an elegant detail in the home. A citrus squeezer or a handy baking utensil is also a great student gift to give to both him and her. It will make a great gift that can inspire the exploration of new recipes and encourage someone to advance their skills in the kitchen.
