Kitchen Equipment for Food Preparation

         << PREVIOUS SECTION                      < PREVIOUS PAGE                       NEXT PAGE >                           NEXT SECTION >>

You will notice that all of the recipes that accompany each menu in this book contain a list of “special equipment” required to prepare each food item. We want you to read the equipment list before you start cooking. Because foods for Afternoon Tea are somewhat specialized, we have assembled a “master list” of kitchen equipment that should enable you to prepare almost any recipe in this book. Of course you will not need to purchase every item on this list. If you never plan to bake madeleines, do not buy a madeleine pan. And you can certainly add the more specialized items over time. We also assume that you will already own much of the kitchen equipment in this inventory.
