hi everybody my name is Alisha welcome

back to top words in today’s episode

we’re going to talk about 10 kitchen

objects so let’s go spatula first word

the first word is spatula spatula so a

spatula is like a food shovel it’s like

a it’s like a a tool you use to flip

something in your kitchen so made of

plastic made of metal you can flip

things like pancakes or omelets with a

spatula spatula so in a sentence flip

pancakes with a spatula pan the next

word is pan pan

so a pan is a piece of kitchen equipment

you use to cook something they can be

small pans they can be larger you might

call it a fry pan something that’s maybe

this size and about this deep

there are sauce pans which are about

this deep and maybe about this big

around so each pan has a different use

depending on your level of cooking skill

you can have a variety of things you can

do with pans maybe I don’t know I’m just

rambling okay in a sentence you can make

a lot of delicious things with just one

pan that’s true

measuring cup the next word is measuring

cup measuring cup a measuring cup is a

cup that you use to measure things

usually well actually there are liquid

measuring cups and there are select

solids measuring cup so liquids like

meaning water juice beer wine whatever

and then there are solids so we can put

like flour or sugar or some other like

herb for example to to measure so there

are two different ways to different

types of measuring cup but they have

some kind of measuring system on the

side like milliliters or maybe I don’t

know once’s I don’t know depending on

what you use so a measuring cup very

handy to have in your kitchen in a

sentence I cut my hand open on a

measuring cup once knife

the next word is knife knife so a knife

is a sharp tool you use to cut things

there can be a chef’s knife a big one a

paring knife a small one there’s a fish

knife and a bread knife all kinds of

knives but really you only need one good

chef’s knife for your kitchen to do most

things anyway in a sentence every cook

needs a good knife pot the next word is

pot pot so a pot is you can think of a

pot like a large deep pan really we use

pots usually to make soup or perhaps I

guess to make a lot of sauce I don’t

know but a pot is just something that’s

large and deep and we can put lots of

liquid in it that’s a pot maybe it has a

lid as well in a sentence put all of the

ingredients in a pot and cook

refrigerator the next word is

refrigerator refrigerator refrigerator

is a fun word to say we often shortened

the word refrigerator to fridge fridge

so a refrigerator is the place where you

store where you keep your food so cold

food or maybe frozen food so a

refrigerator and freezer are different

please keep that in mind refrigerator

just means cold freezing means it’s

below zero degrees Celsius so that means

it’s frozen like you can make ice in

that atmosphere in that environment

refrigerator is just cold so keep your

food in the refrigerator in a sentence

she has a huge refrigerator dishes the

next word is dishes dishes so dishes is

just is the word we use to mean like

your plates and your bowls and your cups

really so plates bowls cups we say those

are dishes like in a sentence do the

dishes

it means wash all of the plates cups and

bowls so dishes means those three things

generally so dishes dishes all of that

is summed up in one word we can use one

word for them in a sentence I keep all

my dishes in cupboards cutlery

silverware flatware the next word is

actually three words it is cutlery

silverware and flatware so

might hear these words used

interchangeably you might hear these

words used in the same way but generally

we say like cutlery I suppose or we

break these words down so these all

three refer to forks knives spoons the

things we use to eat food the tools we

use to take food from a plate to take

food from a dish and put it in our mouth

that that equipment is cutlery or

flatware or silverware silverware would

technically mean like you know that

equipment made from silver I think but

to use a more general word we say

cutlery

most of the time but if you want to be

specific you can say fork spoon a knife

chopstick whatever it’s up to you so

these are kind of three words that refer

to the same thing in a sentence washing

silverware is such a pain cutting board

the next word is cutting board a cutting

board so a cutting board is a piece of

wood or maybe plastic you use under

something you are preparing to cook so

if you’re cutting carrots you put the

cutting board or just board down on your

counter or table put the carrot on top

and cut so we we use it to guard our

knife and our counter from the cutting

action or I suppose I should say we are

guarding the knife from the counter and

we are guarding the counter from the

knife so the cutting board acts to hold

everything in place and to keep

everything like kind of nice and clean

and tidy and in good shape so a cutting

board is essential for a good kitchen in

a sentence I wish I had a nice cutting

board baking sheet the last word is

baking sheet a baking sheet a baking

sheet is a piece of equipment that is

oven safe we can put it in the oven and

it will not melt it will not break down

at all we use it to bake maybe cookies

or we can use it to bake meat for

example a baking sheet it looks like a

sheet of metal really in some cases

maybe it has sides to it as well but

it’s just a simple piece of usually

metal of some kind that is oven safe

it’s easy to use for the oven that’s

called a baking sheet and aside

it’s line baking sheets with parchment

paper okay so those are ten the kitchen

objects I hope that those were useful

for you maybe you can practice them the

next time

you are in the kitchen if you have any

questions or if there’s another kitchen

object that you use a lot please let us
