Batterie de Cuisine

 

Utensils and Cookware
for your Thankgiving Dinner

As all experienced chefs know, having your cooking utensils set out and ready to grab in an instant is a key to efficient cooking. In a professional kitchen, an apprentice or assistant might do this for the chef. If you are lucky enough to have such a person, perhaps a child or a spouse or a good friend, then assign them the task of assembling the 'batterie de cuisine.' Here's what you will need:
