Tongs are a versatile kitchen tool that can flip, toss, turn, and scrape foods. A silicone spoon spatula is useful for sautéing vegetables and stirring oats. A wooden cutting board is a kitchen essential that helps keep knives sharp while plastic boards can harbor germs. Mixing bowls have many uses beyond baking like marinating, dressing foods, and making sauces and dips. Graters can shred cheese, zest citrus, and shred vegetables and chocolate.

kitchen “cred,” buy a pair of tongs. They can flip, toss, turn, and scrape.
SILICONE SPOON SPATULA
This tool is as useful for sautéing
vegetables as it is for stirring morning oatmeal. A must have!
Cutting Board
The workhorse of every kitchen,
there are few dinners where cutting and chopping isn’t involved—making the cutting board your new best friend. While plastic ones are inexpensive and easy to come by, wooden versions tend to be more sanitary since they lack grooves for germs to hang out in. They also help keep your knives in tip-top shape. Mixing Bowls
Think mixing bowls are just
for baking? Think again. Use them to marinate meat, dress veggies with sauce or seasoning, and make salad dressings and dips (give one of these a whirl!). Tip: Skip glass bowls that chip easily and opt for lightweight stainless-steel versions.
Grater
The most common use of graters is
shredding cheese (quesadilla, anyone?). But they’re also wonderful for zesting citrus fruit and shredding chocolate and vegetables like potatoes and zucchini. How else did you think hash browns came to be?
