If your grandmother has taught you anything it should be that culinary skills are directly related to age. Or so she would like you to think. I’m guessing that while granny surely had the experience to cook anything deliciously from scratch, she also knew to use the right tools for the job.
Think about it. How did she prepare so many thanksgiving dinners in such short order? What did she know what you didn’t? Every good cook knows that experience can take you so far but having the right equipment in the kitchen allows you to take things to the next level.
If you are a young chef and have honed your cooking skills but despite your physical advantage in strength and speed you just can’t match your granny’s quickness and quantity in the kitchen, think about investing in a few time savers that will also help you multitask.
Every kitchen needs a good food processor. Stop slicing and dicing your vegetables like you are still living in the Stone Age. You can do all that time consuming chopping in a matter of seconds if you invest in a decent food processor.
The other method granny uses to negate your superior wrist strength is a solid mixer. Osteoporosis isn’t a factor when you never need to bother picking up a whisk to mix batter. How many times have you been clenching your jaw in agony while you painstakingly try to mix batter with hand tools? Again, this seems primitive and a big waste of time when you could just set a mixer to the appropriate speed and let it do its thing to produce a better result in less time.
