Hi!
Today, I am in my kitchen, because I had a request recently to make a video of kitchen
utensils vocabulary.
“Kitchen utensils” are the things you use in a kitchen relating to food, for example,
this is a knife – “knife”, “knife”.
This particular knife is called a “serrated knife” because it has an edge like that
and you use it for cutting bread, so you could also call it a “bread knife” – “this
is a bread knife”.
This is a smaller knife and it is very sharp.
So, you can say, “this is a sharp knife”.
This is a “spatula”, “spatula”.
This is a spatula.
You use it for stirring.
This is a “wooden spoon”.
It is a spoon made of wood and we call it a “wooden spoon”.
This is a wooden spoon.
This is a “rolling pin” and you use it for rolling dough.
“Rolling pin”.
It’s also made out of wood.
This is a “sieve”.
“Sieve”.
This is a sieve.
These are scissors.
These are scissors – so the word is plural.
Or you can also say, “this is a pair of scissors” – “this is a pair of scissors”.
This is a “peeler” – “peeler”.
You use it for taking the skin of vegetables, such as potatoes – it’s a “peeler”.
This is a very important kitchen utensil, it’s a corkscrew – so you use it for opening
a bottle.
These are “measuring spoons” – “measuring spoons”.
They are different sizes and you use them for measuring out different amounts of things
such as salt or sugar.
This is a “grater”.
You can use it for grating cheese – like that!
A grater.
This is an “oil brush” – you use it for brushing oil onto things – “oil brush”.
This is a “garlic press”, you use it for pressing garlic.
And these are “measuring cups” – and you use them for measuring out different amounts
of things such as flour.
Again, they’re all different sizes – “measuring cups”.
This is a “chopping board”.
You use it for chopping.
“Chopping board”.
This is a “frying pan”.
“Frying pan”.
This is a “saucepan”.

This is a saucepan.
This is a “baking tray”.
This one is round for cooking pizzas.

This is a “kettle”.

And finally, these are different types of “cutlery”.

So, we have a “fork”, a “knife”, a “spoon”, and a smaller type of spoon that
in English we call a “teaspoon”, “teaspoon”.
Great, that’s all for today!
