Are you a lover of bread and pastries? Then you must be prepared for any recipe that comes your way. In the world of baking, there are thousands of tools you can use, but only a handful of essentials that need to exist in your pantry. Today we will tell you which utensils you must have if you enjoy baking and why you can't live without them.Rolling PinWhether you want to bake cookies or pie crusts, there is no way that your hands can provide the smoothness, consistency, and uniformity that a rolling pin offers. It may be a basic tool, but there’s a reason it’s a classic, and you should have it available at all times. We recommend investing in a non-stick rolling pin; not only will it save you from having the dough stick, but you will also spend less flour to keep it dry.
Sweet Pie CrustMixerThis is a slightly bigger investment, but if you want to save hours of whisking eggs with a balloon whisk and lifting mixtures to get them to the right consistency, then we recommend a good mixer. It doesn’t have to be too large, but try to get one with interchangeable beaters to use the stronger ones for heavy tasks and the more delicate ones to avoid breaking the consistency of your mixtures.
Chocolate Chip Cookies Non-Stick SpatulasDoes that sound very basic? They may be, but an extensive set of spatulas of different shapes made from non-stick materials is the best tool a baker can have. They help scrape every last bit of your dough to avoid waste, they aid in mixing when you need to fold your preparations rather than whisk them, and they are even ideal for flipping cookies in the oven.
Super Chocolate Cupcakes Cupcake TrayOnce you have this tray, you will start baking much more than just little cakes. Sure, cupcakes are trendy and delicious, but with this tool, you can also prepare soufflés, jellies, flan, etc. We even recommend baking your favorite cake and then dividing it on this tray to get individual servings.
Silvia's Pound Cake Marble BoardIf you have trouble with your dough sticking to the kitchen table, you are not alone. This is a common problem and can be frustrating. A quick solution is to buy a large marble board; this type of stone is ideal for preventing the dough from sticking, and its cool temperature keeps the dough from cooking too early.
