COOKING UTENSIL S AND
EQUIPMENTS
A kitchen utensil is a hand-held, typically small tool or utensil that is
used in the kitchen, for food-related functions. A cooking utensilis a utensil
used in the kitchen for cooking. Other names for the same thing, or subsets
thereof, derive from the word "ware", and describe kitchen utensils from a
merchandising (and functional) point of view: kitchenware, wares for the
kitchen; ovenware and bake ware, kitchen utensils that are for use inside
ovens and for baking; cookware, merchandise used for cooking and so
forth.
A partially overlapping category of tools is that of eating utensils,
which are tools used for eating (c.f. the more general category of
tableware). Some utensils are both kitchen utensils and eating
utensils. Cutlery (i.e. knives and other cutting implements) can be used for
both food preparation in a kitchen and as eating utensils when dining.
Other flat wares such as forks and spoons are both kitchen and eating
utensils.
Other names used for various types of kitchen utensils, although not
strictly denoting a utensil that is specific to the kitchen, are according to the
materials they are made of, again using the "ware" suffix, rather than their
functions: earthenware, utensils made of clay, silverware, utensils (both
kitchen and dining) made of silver; glassware, utensils (both kitchen and
dining) made of glass; and so forth. These latter categorizations include
utensils — made of glass, silver, clay, and so forth — that are not
necessarily kitchen utensils.
The pictures above show the cooking utensil and equipment that are
commonly use in the kitchen. They are:
Gas Stove
In cooking, a gas stove is a cooker which uses natural
gas, propane, butane, liquefied petroleum gas or other flammable gas as
a fuel source.
Oven
Microwave ovens heat foods quickly and efficiently, and because excitation
is fairly uniform in the outer of a dense food item, food is more evenly
heated throughout (except in thick dense objects) than generally occurs in
other cooking techniques.
Grill
A barbecue grill is a device for cooking food by applying heat directly from
below. It is used as the cooking method between barbecue grillers.
Refrigerator
A refrigerator (colloquially fridge) is a commonhousehold
appliance that consists of a thermally insulated compartment and
a heat pump(mechanical, electronic, or chemical) that transfers heat
from the inside of the fridge to its external environment so that the
inside of the fridge is cooled to a temperature below the ambient
temperature of the room.
It is used to cool the food by decreasing or even arresting the
reproduction rate of bacteria. The device is thus used to reduce the
rate of spoilage of foodstuffs.
Knife
A knife (plural knives) is a cutting tool in the kitchen to cut the meat,
vegetable and so on.
A Serrated Knife
Serrated blade knives have a wavy, scalloped or saw-like blade.
Serrations help when cutting things that are hard on the outside and soft
