Why would you need a tasting spoon if you already have your fingers? I mean, that's 8 tastes without burdening the dishwashers with more to wash before you have to wash your hands.

because people forget to wash their hands inbetween putting something in their mouths and touching the food they are preparing for others, if you have a jug of boiling hot water that is changed regularly you can keep your tasting spoon sterile and clean and not putting extra bacteria in to the food. Its a strict rule at school about not using fingers and always using a tasting spoon .

In order to maintain sanitary conditions, I touch my elbow into the sauce and taste off of it. Afterwards, I lick my elbow completely clean before using it to clean my ears. Of course, I spray my tongue with bleach first.

ha! you guys are funny

People keep saying radio/music. I keep finding myself turning the music down when I walk into the kitchen.
Then it finally dawned on me: OMG! I am that guy!
Guess I got old... ?

Anyhow, besides the obligatory tools, I need a food mill.
You can keep your Robot Coupe and your immersion blender, just give me a food mill, please.

Saran wrap haha. It's amazing how much sushi chefs use saran wrap.

My silicone spoonula. Oh, and towels. Mandolin. Cutting boards. Ok, that's it. Oh, and my scale. That's really it. No it isn't -- garlic press and micro plane. Ok. I need it all. I admit it, I'm a kitchen gadget junkie. My two K.A. mixers are proof.
