Michael Ruhlman's Indispensable Kitchen Tools
As author of The Elements of Cooking, Michael Ruhlman has inspired others to really think about what they keep in their kitchens. Now he lists his own must-have gadgets, after venting about some real crap that he's got no use for:
I’m not the first to suggest that a tool that has only a single use is just as useful in the garbage as it is in your drawer. A mango slicer, please. An egg separater—Jesus, an egg separator! We are born with the perfect egg separators, right at the end of our arms!
His fave tools? Among others, a big knife, a little knife, and "the most important tool in the kitchen: kosher salt."
