Favourite kitchen tool
Along with a much loved very old Kenwood Chef I rely on old tried and true utensils for prepping.One of my oldest is a free Tupperware Spatula that I acquired from attending one of their parties many eons ago. It is without doubt the one thing I use the most. I would be absolutely lost without it
Do you have an old utensil that is your favourite bit of equipment.!

Re: Favourite kitchen tool
Too many to mention really
They are all pretty basic like my knives and steel which even go on holiday with me 
.I don't like kitchens full of gadgets that take more time to desemble and wash than doing the task in the first place
I do have a Kenwood Mixer though, it is fairly new and replaces an ancient Krups mixer. I find it more difficult to knead dough with my hands these days and it is invaluable when making bread for the family.

A wooden spoon, it's one my Nan used when I was a child and is now my most used item in the kitchen, it's a bit flat on one side where it's worn but it still stirs a great custard or cake batter.My kenwood is ancient too and doesn't get used as much these days as I don't bake as often but it's comforting knowing my old friend is still sitting waiting to be used.

So glad you said you take your knives with you. I just take a little kitchen knife that I use to chop everything. The blade is so worn down now that I am willing it not to snap every time I use it.

mine are worn away with sharpening but still incredibly sharp. I find holiday cottages have very poor quality cooking knives . If I lose a small veg knife as I do occasionally I feel I have lost a friend and an quite bereft
It takes ages to get used to another one.

The times that I have gone through a bin of rubbish bags hunting for my little knife that was scooped up with peeling by mistake..and the sheer relief when I find it, is indescribable. Silly I know
