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
