Washing Up
What kitchen impliment and ingredient did you at somepoint discover that changed everything... what can you not even imagine cooking without that you once did not have.
For me on the equipment side it is the Enameled Cast Iron Dutch Oven. For years I had really crummy cookware... I was pretty transient and never bought anything I felt I needed to take along... of course the cruddy stuff kept following me... I cooked with cheap enameled steel... stuff I got free ... the cheap stuff from ikea.. I made do... and could still but I cant imagine not having a dutch oven. (I have more than I need right now) this is the most used pot type in my kitchen. I really found it made everything better and easier.
For ingredients it is Cilantro.... never heard of it before I moved to Texas.. it seemed to be in everything there... mexican, vietnamese etc I found it strange at first but now I love it and use it for so many things...
both of these things I lived without for a long time but just cant imagine not having now.... when I moved and had to get all new kitchen stuff the first thing I did was get a DO.
So what revolutionized your cooking?
