Kitchen Equipment/Tools That Have Been With You Through The Years

ECBG · ‎01-08-2011

Do you have any kitchen tools or equipment that have been through you most of your adult life?

We have a small cookie sheet and a pizza pan that have weathered 45 years! They're perfect for everything!

They are fav's with us and our sons growing up.

Teens trying to get out of the kitchen didn't do as good a job of cleaning them! (Of course!!!)

Pyrex dishes! those things last forever.

I still have the first frying pan I bought about 30 years ago.

Flatware. A couple of serving pieces. An All-Clad braising pan and a LeCreuset skillet, now used by my daughter. It has a wood handle that unscrews so you can put it in the oven. Genius. A big stoneware bowl I use to make bread. A wooden salad bowl.

My mother had a simple sifter quite unlike but superior to any other I've ever seen. It's packed away because I really don't need it but I wouldn't part with it's dented little self for anything. Somebody needs to get a patent on it and manufacture it.

I still have two of a set of four Pyrex graduated size glass mixing bowls (the ones with the white flowers).

And a couple of Wusthof knives, plus a grocery store serrated bread knife that still cuts very well after 40 (?) years.

(Although I did just treat myself to a new Wusthof serrated knife and it cuts as if it's a razor blade. Incredible. It takes no effort to slice through, for example, an orange.)

@ECBG My Mom's Revere Ware sauce pans. They don't rust or bust.

@ECBG May I add a gadget to this list? I have an Ekco egg slicer for at least 48 years. You can't kill it. I use it to slice eggs, olives, mushrooms, strawberries -- anything soft. A few years ago I "thought" I needed a new slicer. Bought a KitchenAid brand that was used 2 times when one of the slicing wires broke. Threw it out and continued to use my yellow Ekco slicer. Bet that thing was made in the USA, too.
