Gadgets in the Kitchen - What Do You Really Need?

One of my favorite places to shop, besides the book store, is a well-stocked kitchen shop. Most of the time, it is to just look. There are so many little gizmos, whosiwhatsits, appliances, and gadgets that you could purchase and possibly never really use.

With money and space constraints, I put together a list of several "necessary" items for the kitchen.

Quality wooden spoons: I prefer bamboo or olive wood. An important tip to remember is that wooden spoons should never see the inside of a dishwasher.
Quality knives: Buy the best that you can possibly afford. Along with a good steel, the knives should last you a lifetime.
Cooking Utensils: Consider your cooking pots and pans - if they are non-stick the finish is critical. The spoon, spatula and turner have to be comfortable to use. Again, don't cheap out and be sure they are dishwasher durable. Also remember to add a sturdy, comfortable to the hand vegetable peeler and good veggie brushes.
Graduated mixing bowls: There are some fun all-purpose bowls out there, but be sure they are microwave safe and not just top-rack dishwasher safe. There is nothing like a good set of glass or pottery graduated mixing bowls to get you through a work day in the kitchen.
Hand Mixer: A quality hand mixer will do the job for you even if you are not a Gale Gand in the pastry department. I am sorry but the $9.99 special will not cut it. You need a mixer that can do some work without the beaters falling out with each blend of the cake mix.
Pot and pan holders: Protection from burns is essential. Pot and pan holders must be comfortable for you to use as well as provide protection. Pretty doesn't always provide safety.
Meat thermometer: My favorite is a small battery operated instant read digital thermometer. It has never let me down and displays in Fahrenheit or Celsius.
Measuring cups and spoons: 1 cup, 2 cups, and 4 cups sizes are necessary. There is a wonderful cup that actually allows you to look into the cup for the measure rather than try to get a balanced look from the side. Spoons - this is a personal preference, but have at least two sets available. Personally, I don't like the ones on a ring - too hard to get off and put in the dishwasher. The other spoons tend to get in the way sometimes when measuring.

This list is a good start to stocking your kitchen. You can shop discount for most of it if you are watching a budget. Take the savings and splurge on quality knives. Watch for my next article on the gizmos and whosiwhatsits.

Two Techniques to Grill Whole Chicken

Chicken is my nations most popular meat however when it comes to the barbecue it's probably less popular because people are more concerned to ensure that the meat is properly cooked. I've known some even to pre-cook chicken in the microwave first but this really isn't necessary if you follow the basic rules that I've set out before.

Just to re-iterate one point when using a charcoal barbecue grill, always give the coals time to settle before starting to cook (about 45 minutes) because despite chicken being described as a lean meat, the fat that is under the skin mobilizes very quickly and makes for serious flames. You don't get beautiful barbecue chicken with a crispy skin but raw chicken with what looks like an dirty oily coating, best described as a health hazard.

So when it comes to how to barbecue chicken there are essentially four different styles, rotisserie, spatchcock, smoker or roast, the fist two are the ones I'm going to concentrate on being specifically for the grill. Hopefully smoked chicken is self explanatory and roast chicken is great in a kamado ceramic BBQ but maybe that's for another day.

Rotisserie

Rotisserie is when you barbecue chicken on a spit roaster and rotate it over the heat so effectively grilling and continually turning to ensure that the chicken is cooked evenly all over. Rotisserie is probably the most difficult way to barbecue chicken because it's not so easy to tell when the chicken is done and it's important to ensure that the inner cavity is cooked. This means that it needs to be cooked well and for longer than if you were roasting the bird but that doesn't mean that it's going to be dry. The secret is to ensure that your barbecue chicken is basted every 15 minutes with the juices in the drip tray. Check for good cooking either by using a BBQ thermometer or simply stabbing the thigh with a skewer and when the juices run clear (no blood) then it's done. If using a barbecue thermometer then you're looking for a breast temp of 165°F and 180°F in the thigh and wing.

Spatchcock

This is my preferred way of how to barbecue chicken because it's relatively quick (about 45 - 50 minutes) and because the cavity is exposed, you're guaranteed to have the inside well cooked. The challenge is in the preparation because you've got to cut the chicken down either the backbone or the breast bone and this is best done with shears or a sharp knife. When using a knife I tend to cut the breast bone because it's easier. When you finished cutting, flatten the bird and place it in a BBQ basket and then you're ready for the grill, 25 minutes each side and then your done. TIP - less fat drips from the inside of the chicken so cook this side first.

Both the above are essentially grill techniques and to simply turn these into full blown barbecue chicken recipes then simply season with salt and pepper. This will add flavor but most importantly the salt will help crisp up the skin - not the most healthy part of the chicken but certainly tasty. If you then want to enhance the recipe then break out your favorite homemade barbecue sauce.

Arabica Coffee Beans - Do You Know Were Your Coffee Comes From?

Here's your chance to find out about arabica coffee beans. Do you wake up in the morning and head to the coffee pot? Or maybe you buy your coffee and you are up to a three latte a day habit? For many people the early morning jolt of caffeine is what gets them out of bed and heading off to work. People lay awake each night cursing that third cup of coffee they had this morning. Coffee and caffeine are often seen as the cause of sleepless nights or jittery hands. For others the taste of arabica coffee is what keeps them coming back for more. But do you really know where your coffee comes from?

Coffee has taken over America and is spreading to the rest of the world. Be it for the taste or for the caffeine people are lining up twenty-four hours a day for a fresh cup of coffee. Coffee houses are packed with people every hour they are opened, and some shops stay open all night. Coffee houses boast where their coffee beans were grown, where the beans were roasted, and how the beans are grown. We can also take the coffee house taste home by purchasing bags or beans at the shop or at the grocery store. Many major coffee shop chains now sell bags of arabica coffee beans in the grocery store. The arabica coffee is sold in a variety of flavors and grinds in our grocery stores and is considered by coffee experts of the highest quality coffees available on the market today.

The world of coffee can be very confusing, every place you goes calls the drink sizes different words, has different names for their coffee roasts, and tries to convince you that espresso is a bean. There are only two types of coffee beans; arabica and robusta. Arabica coffee beans are considered higher quality then robusta beans and appear to have less caffeine as well. The beans are roasted at different temperatures and to different coffee grades. The roasting is what creates the flavors and dark brown color we normally associate with coffee.

While sometimes truth is subjective, in the case of arabica coffee the truth about it is that there is less caffeine and better taste. If you drink a lot of coffee and enjoy smooth taste and less caffeine, choose arabica coffee. To determine if your favorite brand of coffee is arabica you may need to read the label closely. If it claims to be Columbian somewhere on the label you will probably find the arabica coffee note there. Columbia, Guatemala, and El Salvador only grow arabica coffee beans.

As you can see, not all coffee is crated equally. The next time you go for coffee you can feel more comfortable knowing that it is truly made from arabica coffee beans
