  1. A good, sharp chef's knife. Nothing fancy, I use a Dexter that I got for like $20 and have it resharpened. You can get a lot nicer, but you don't have to. The first kitchen I ever worked at (20 years ago) used knives almost exactly like this.

  2. A good meat thermometer. I use this one which works similarly to a ThermaPen but without the ridiculous ~$90 cost.

  3. A good cast iron skillet can be pretty versatile. Cast iron holds heat very well, which means that it's great for stuff like searing steaks.

  4. Some cheap, non-stick frying pans. I recommend getting cheap ones because once the coating starts coming off (and it always does at some point, it seems) you're going to throw them away and get new ones. You can spend $300+ like I did once and get high-end stuff like All-Clad or whatever, but even if you're super careful and use only wood and silicone utensils to cook on it, it'll still start peeling its coating, and then All-Clad will say you used metal silverware on it and your warranty is invalid, blah blah blah, and that's more hassle than you need. Just get cheap ones.

  5. Now THIS is where you can spend some legit money. A tri-ply, high quality frying pan without a non-stick coating. These are great for making pan sauces while you cook, etc. I made a chicken, garlic, and olive oil with a red wine vinegar based pan sauce with this pan (well, and some baking dishes) that was incredible. All-Clad is the industry standard but the Tramontina stuff is 1/2 the price or less and built to near the same level of quality.

  6. A nice, enameled Dutch Oven, whether it be from Le Creuset or Tramontina, these are the best for stews, soups, chili...etc. Hold heat forever, well built, and easy to clean.

  7. A good fish spatula, which I almost never use to cook fish. It's actually just the best shape for omelets, eggs, whatever. Flipping anything in a pan with a utensil like this is awesome.

  8. A thick ceramic baking dish for making things like lasagna or casseroles or even just roasting meats/veggies.

  9. Believe it or not, cookie sheets covered with heavy duty aluminum foil are how I do a lot of my oven roasting of small things, like diced veggies or potatoes. They work perfectly and being so large they're able to be spread out so they get roasted on all edges for a little extra flavor. Brussel sprouts & diced bacon in a cast iron skillet to start and then dump them onto this and blast them in the oven at 425 for 15-20 minutes and you'll have a great side dish.

  10. No matter how careful you are, you're going to get something caked on or get a dish so dirty you think it's uncleanable. For that, I recommend Barkeeper's Friend which is an awesome powdered cleaner. Add a little water, use a paper towel and this stuff to make a paste, leave it in the pan for a few minutes, then rinse. I have yet to see this fail. Awesome stuff. Saved some pans.


    There are lots of other things I use daily:

Shit, you caught me :/ I'm hiding from you all the fact that I'm not actually the person you hear in audios; it's all this dude I have chained up in my basement and he makes audios for me to post or else I don't feed him \^\^;

I definitely recommend getting one, I think Amazon is having a pretty good sale on Utopias.

I bought this skillet. I'll measure the sides when I get home, but I want to say they're about 2-2.5"

EDIT: Just scrolled further down the listing, dimensions are 17 x 12.5 x 2.3 inches

I keep getting sick. It’s driving my crazy. I barely remember what healthy feels like. Currently getting over a cold, but my throat is still agony. So my usual comfort eating/binge drinking can’t help because I can barely swallow!

My unhealthy coping mechanism is to sit in my conservatory near the door, blast music, drink vodka and Diet Coke while smoking and reading a book. Another thing I do is cook. Fresh pizza from scratch is amazing. I’ve always wanted to try pan pizza so this on “Francesca’s wishlist” would be awesome.

To cheer you up (hopefully!) here is the Axis of Awesome. They have a lot of hilarious stuff, always brings a smile to my face 😁

That's all you need! Everything I make in it is great. Even just chicken breast or pork tenderloin.
I love doing chicken, browning each side then letting it cook in the pan in the oven. Very juicy.

Really though for cleaning all I do is rinse with water and scrub with a dedicated cast iron sponge. Get all the grease out and then dry it off, set it back on the stove to heat dry. Every once in a while if it gets bad I scrub with salt... Wipe oil in it and stick it in the oven for 30 minutes.

Let me know if you get it... I can give you more info and recipes... Just doing this from the couch. By far my favorite tool in the kitchen
