Pyrex instruments may be fine for measuring volume, but they absolutely suck for poring the contents without spilling. 💯

I'm actually scaling down my kitchen and simplifying. I've pared down to many of the items you mentioned. I have been paying attention to which tools and cookware I often reach for and sometimes buying an extra. One of my own favorites is a big wok with a glass lid. I use it instead of a pan or pot for many things. Did a catfish jamabalya in it the other night. I also bought a second pair of large and small chef's knives since those get used so much.

Due to a lot of crazy stuff that's happened in my life in the past year, I have an extremely minimal kitchen. I have one big pot, one 10-inch skillet, one big chef's knife, and one silicone spatula. I have one plate, one bowl, two spoons, one fork, and one butter knife. I have one kitchen towel. That's it. I can still cook everything I want, from simple to elaborate recipes.

Hot pad anyone? You will need one with the Dutch oven.

Thank you for your expertise is kitchen gadgets. When I buy anything for the kitchen, ATK is where i go for research. I have everything you mentioned today, though I have a less expensive Dutch oven. I would have never thought the Dutch oven was a key piece of equipment until I took ATK cooking classes, which was one reason I went with a less expensive option. I have been saving for a Le Crueset because I believe it is definitely worth the price as it is the most used pot in my kitchen.

I would add the ability to scoop (like a ladle or a big spoon), grate, strain, whisk, and something flat to bake on for stuff that needs space that the cast iron skillet can't provide. Maybe something for steaming?

ATK: heavily underlines repeatedly how important accuracy is when measuring. Doesn't mention the one piece of affordable equipment that could not only replace most if not all of their suggested measuring devices, but would also be more accurate and take up less space, something that is relevant when making a capsule kitchen which is often something necessary for people with very little space.

I've never earned a measuring spoons… approximate with a normal spoon. But I am also not very good at baking. Maybe that's why.
