Preparation
Recipes aren’t the only things top chefs keep under wraps. They also keep quiet about their smart storage solutions. What professional kitchen could function if it didn’t have everything organized just so and in bulk? The secret sources that chefs rely on are local restaurant-supply stores and websites like restaurantstore.com and restaurantsupply.com; if you’ve never shopped one (in person or online), you’ll find they are full of smart, sturdy, and well-designed items built to last. These comprehensive sources sell everything from faucets to dinnerware and plenty of the items translate to home use.
Food stylist and recipe developer Jason Schreiber, author of Fruit Cake ($29.90, bookstore.org) says “Not only are commercial tools built to last, but they are almost always dishwasher safe and lightweight.”
On today’s menu? Our top four finds from pro kitchens that are worth having in your home. Once you fall for these no-nonsense, hard-wearing products, be sure to explore the world of restaurant supply some more as there plenty of other gems to be found.
