Recommended Cooking Tools


This post is about cooking tools that are referred to in recipes I post - some readers may have them on hand already - and others may need to purchase them or buy a comparable tool. I will provide links to purchase the items listed online - and brand recommendations where I am bias and will give a review of my own experience.


Some of the tools may be new gadgets and some may be familiar - please write about the ones you love and how they helped you in the kitchen with your creative expression as a chef.

Thanks for reading - and enjoy!

One of my kitchen staples that I use often to reheat food or cook vegetables is a
"Stainless Steel Steamer"


A stainless steel steamer is used in the bottom of a stainless steel pot. Make sure that you use enough water to steam until what you are cooking or reheating is done.

Welcome To Creating Gourmet Everyday ...

Bagel with Roast Beef And Pepper Jack Cheese

Ingredients:
Onion Bagel

Mayonaise

1 - 2 Thinly Sliced Pieces of Roast Beef
Grated Pepper Jack Cheese


Directions:


  • Slice the bagel in half - toast one or both halves of the bagel using the bagel setting on your toaster (if you have one) so that it is toasted well. I use the 3 setting on the toaster so that it doesn't get too brown.


Bagel and Cream Cheese with Roast Beef

This is a light and satisfying meal - full of wonderful flavor.
Enjoy!


Ingredients:
Onion Bagel
(I used a half of the bagel to make it a satisfying snack; I would recommend using a bagel that goes well with Roast Beef - it can be any kind you like).
Cream Cheese
1 - 2 Thinly Sliced Pieces of Roast Beef
Salt
Pepper


Directions:

  • Slice the bagel in half - toast one or both halves of the bagel using the bagel setting on your toaster (if you have one) so that it is toasted well. I use the 3 setting on the toaster so that it doesn't get too brown.
