Making a Functional Fuss-Free Kitchen a la Ina Garten

Making a Functional Fuss-Free Kitchen a la Ina Garten

Ina Garten, also known as the Barefoot Contessa, is a well-known chef, cookbook author, and TV personality...and a close family friend. She has been entertaining us with her delicious recipes and easy-to-follow cooking tips for years.

Invest in Good Quality Knives
Ina always emphasizes the importance of having good quality knives in the kitchen. She (and we) believes that having sharp knives will make cooking more enjoyable and efficient. We highly recommend our Steak Knives Set.

Invest in Reusable Tools
One of the things we love about our friend, Ina, is that she knows exactly what tools to have on-hand in the kitchen that can be used throughout the years. There's no need for fancy equipment - a simple zester, juicer, or squeezer does the trick.

Stock Your Pantry with Good Ingredients
Ina always emphasizes the importance of using good quality ingredients in your cooking. She suggests stocking your pantry with good quality olive oil and balsamic vinegar and foregoing expensive alternatives that have lackluster flavor. We're huge fans of our good ingredients and use them with every meal.

Use Classic Serveware

One of the many reasons we love Pillyvuit serveware is because it's timeless, easy to clean, and beautiful to serve your guests. They also go with any placemats, silverware, or glassware so there's no need to switch everything up from season to season. The Oval Serving Platter and White Cake Stand are favorites of ours.

Whether you're a seasoned home cook or a beginner, these tips and products will make cooking more enjoyable and efficient. So go ahead and stock up your kitchen with these essentials and start cooking like the Barefoot Contessa!
