Kitchen utensils for amateur masterchefs

Purchase a separate cutting board for each food group. For example, for cutting fish, meat, poultry, bread and vegetables.

With a good knife set, you can cut vegetables, fruit, meat and more, easily and quickly. A knife block is handy for storage.

You can do a lot more with a grater than you think. Not only for grating cheese, but to grate cucumbers, carrots, cabbage, beetroot and apples.

There are more spoons than just tablespoons, teaspoons and soup spoons. Is there a spaghetti spoon, sauce ladle, serving spoon and wooden spoon in your kitchen?

Spatulas and wok spatulas are not only for licking the leftover cake batter, but for stirring food and flipping pancakes too, among other things.

Make sure you have a slotted spoon in your kitchen. With a slotted spoon, you can scoop out floating food or doughnuts from a pan, without scooping water or oil.

How do you remove the food from the pan during baking and roasting? Use tongs or a meat fork.

The tastiest pizzas are of course homemade pizzas, and you cut them with a pizza cutter.

Mash: nicely old-fashioned, or just a little different? Anyway, a masher is a must.

Eating a clove of garlic every day is super healthy, so a garlic press is definitely handy.

Indispensable for opening up a nice bottle of wine or beer: openers. Besides a bottle opener, a can opener is also great.

No waste; with an apple corer, you really only remove the core.

Scoop beautiful melon balls with the pommes parisiennes scoop!

Use a citrus grater to subtly blend citrus peels in dishes, or for decoration.

To stir and whisk sauces and batters.

Hate the hassle with handing out pieces of cake? Not with a cake slice.

A palette knife is the perfect tool when spreading icing on a cake, and for other forms of decoration.

It's difficult to scoop from a bowl of ice cream with an ordinary spoon. A specially shaped ice cream scoop is just the thing.

A sieve is very useful for sifting flour, or to sprinkle icing sugar over pies and cakes.
