One key to saving time in the kitchen is having the right tools and knowing where to find them. When you have your kitchen grouped into centers (like a baking center, cookware center and tableware center), you can work in the area you need to work in and have everything you need at your fingertips.
Here are the tools I can’t live without:
Good sharp knives - My favorite knives are Cutco. They cut better than any knife that I have used and I have never had to sharpen them. Good sharp knives will save you lots of time in the kitchen.
