The Universal Kitchen Tool You Need, According To Thomas Keller
By SHAYE GLISSON
Chef Thomas Keller is an award-winning chef who has accomplished much in the culinary world. The acclaimed chef realizes that wielding useful kitchen tools is essential for saving time and eliminating stressful cooking situations, and this specific tool eliminates clutter in the kitchen.
Chef Keller recommends investing in universal lids to eliminate clutter, as these lids save space, are cost-effective, and are versatile. According to Healthy Cookware, universal covers accommodate most cookware sizes, and French chefs have used them for generations because they are sustainable and help eliminate confusion in the kitchen.
These pan covers are usually made from stainless steel or have glass lids or a silicone coating, and they hold in steam, prevent splatters, and retain heat on all types of pots and pans. In addition to a universal lid, Keller also recommends having a quality set of knives, stock pots, sauté pans, and cast iron skillets in the kitchen.
