Despite all the work involved, there’s something appealing about throwing a dinner party. Whether your dinner party in question is likely to be more jeans and joking than tuxedos and martinis, who doesn’t want to impress their friends with a beautiful spread of amazing food? To ensure that your dinner party, whether formal or casual, goes off without a hitch, make sure you have the kitchen gear you need to properly execute dinner party prep work. The following is a selection of some of the culinary equipment that can help.
A Zwilling Smart Ridge Chef’s Knife
For chefs, their knives are as close to sacred as anything in the kitchen can be. They are the most important tool for pre-cooking prep work and are treated with the reverence their importance earns them. The most important of these knives are the chef knives (not to be confused with the chef’s knives collectively). A chef’s knife is generally 8-10 inches long and is used for most of the preparatory cutting, chopping, slicing, and julienning for any meal. A chef’s knife is an absolutely essential tool in professional and home kitchens alike.
One recently released chef’s knife has taken the culinary world by storm. It is the Zwilling J.A. Henckels Pro 8-Inch Smart Ridged Chef’s Knife. It features a ridge about an inch above the blade that pushes cut food away from the blade, increasing the efficiency of food-chopping considerably. It is now widely considered among the most user-friendly chef’s knife on the market today. And Zwilling J.A. Henckels’ knives rank among the best in the world.
A Copper Cookware Set
Copper cookware has the seemingly magical property of improving any cooking space it inhabits. They look perfectly at home hung up above a rustic wood-fired stove in a cabin, adding to the rustic charm. And they look just as much at home lined up neatly in the most advanced, efficient, professional 5-star kitchen, adding to the bustling modernity.
Apart from its attractive appearance, copper is an incredibly efficient conductor of energy, including heat energy. (Considerably more efficient than steel and aluminum, in fact.) Copper cookware can cook food far more quickly, more evenly, and with far less heat necessary. There are even some recipes that can only be prepared properly with copper.
When you’re cooking with copper cookware, make sure you have everything ready to go. High heat performance means a much quicker pace, and you may want to keep the heat lower on your stove than you would for other pans. Your friends at the dinner party will be extremely impressed when they see you have a set of copper cookware, and are also sure to benefit from the quality of dishes you’re able to make with it.
An Air Fryer
It’s probably unnecessary to describe how popular (and delicious) fried food is. Traditionally, frying that food involved submerging it in boiling oil. It’s probably also unnecessary to point out that the result was an oil-dripping treat that generally tasted great but wasn’t exactly great for you. And when the food was gone, a considerable quantity of used oil remained to clean up (including the oil that often splashed or popped out of the fryer). The saturation of the food in oil and the cleanup has always limited the widespread popularity of deep-frying food in the home. But the air fryer has changed all of that. Air fryers produce sinful-seeming fried food without large amounts of oil to deal with. And what dinner party guests were ever unexcited by fried food?
