Top Kitchen Essential Tools For Home Cooks

In this video, Chef Billy Parisi, whose YouTube channel promises “Classical culinary expertise meets home cooking!”, takes you through his top 20 essential kitchen tools, plus a few bonus extras. From the chef's knife and the honing steel to cutting boards, sheet trays, thermometers, blenders, tongs and whisks, he explains what each tool is used for, how much you should spend on it and how to keep it in good condition.

Chef Billy speaks naturally and quickly, just like a real chef in a real kitchen. His video is a great way to learn the vocabulary of kitchen equipment, but also the language you need to give advice and recommendations, and to catch your audience's attention from the very first sentence. You will reuse all of this to start your own short cooking or service video.
