Attendance
 Basic
Kitchen Utensils
found in the
Kitchen
At the end of this lesson, the learners
should be able to;
LO 1. The learners will identify the basic
Kitchen Utensils found in the kitchen
1.1 The learners will determine the
function of each utensil.
1.2 The learners will value the
importance of learning different kitchen
utensils.
Utensils
an implement,
instrument, or
vessel used in a
household and
especially a in
kitchen.
Kitchen
is usually a room or designated area in a
dwelling that is used for the storage and
preparation of food and drinks. It will
generally contain fixtures, fittings,
equipment and implements for preparing,
cooking and sometimes for eating snacks
and meals, whether breakfast, lunch or
dinner.
1.Measuring cups
are kitchen utensils used primarily to measure the volume of liquid or
bulk solid cooking ingredients such as flour and sugar, especially for
volumes from about 50 mL upwards. The cup will usually have a scale
marked in cups and fractions of a cup, and often with fluid measure
and weight of a selection of dry food stuffs. The size of measuring cup
is 1\4 cup ,1\2 cup, 1\3cup and 1 cup size
Question:
If the measuring cup who’s measure about 1 cup you
misplace it, what mathematical way would you do in
order to measure 1cup of dry and liquid ingredients?

ANSWER:
The student will use four cups of 1\4 cup measurement.
The student will use two cups of 1\2 cup measurement.
2. Can opener (or tin opener)
is a device used to open metal cans. The first opener employing now
familiar sharp rotating wheel, which runs around the can's rim
cutting the lid, was invented in 1870 but was difficult to operate. A
breakthrough came in 1925 when a second, serrated wheel was
added to hold the cutting wheel on the rim of the can. This easy to
use design has become one of the most popular can opener models.
3.Bread knife -
Serrated knives are able to cut soft bread without crushing it. Bread
knives are usually between 15 cm and 25 cm (6 and 10 inches). An
offset serrated knife uses an offset handle to ensure the cook's
knuckles will not touch the cutting surface when the blade has cut all
of the way through the food.
4. Cutting board
is a durable board on which to place material for cutting. Kitchen
cutting boards are often made of wood or plastic. There are also
cutting boards made of glass, steel or marble,which are easier to
clean than wooden or plastic ones such as nylon or corian, but tend
to damage knives due to their hardness. Rough cutting edge
5.frying pan, frypan, or skillet
is a flat-bottomed pan used for frying, searing, and browning
foods. It is typically 200 to 300 mm (8 to 12 in) in diameter with
relatively low sides that flare outwards, a long handle, and no lid.
6.Grater(also known as a
shredder)
in parts of the eastern
United States is a kitchen utensil
used to grate foods into fine
pieces. Several types of graters
feature different sizes of grating
slots, and can therefore aid in the
preparation of a variety of foods.
They are commonly used to grate
cheese and lemon or orange peel
(to create zest), and can also be
used to grate other softwoods.
7.Measuring spoon
is a spoon used to measure an amount of an ingredient, either
liquid or dry, when cooking. Measuring spoons may be made of
plastic, metal, and other materials. They are available in many sizes,
including teaspoon and tablespoon. In the U.S., a measuring spoon
is number of pieces, especially four or six. This usually includes ¼,
½, and 1 teaspoons and 1tablespoon.
8.Mortar and pestle
is a tool used to crush, grind, and mix solid substances
(trituration). The pestle is a heavy bat-shaped object, the end of
which is used for crushing and grinding. The mortar is a bowl,
typically made of hard wood, ceramic or stone. The substance to
be ground is placed in the mortar and ground, crushed or mixed
with the pestle.
 9. Peeler (potato peeler and/or apple peeler)
is a metal blade attached to a wooden, metal or plastic handle
that is used to remove the outer skin or peel thus peeling certain
vegetables, frequently potatoes, and fruits such as apples, and pears.
10. Pot-holder
is a piece of textile or silicone used to hold hot kitchen cooking
equipment, like pots and pans. They are frequently made of polyester
and/or cotton.
11. Salt shaker and pepper shaker
are condiment holders used in Western culture that are designed to
allow diners to distribute edible salt and ground peppercorns.
12.Colander
is a bowl-shaped kitchen utensil with holes in it used for draining
food such as pasta or rice. The perforated nature of the colander
allows liquid to drain through while retaining the solid inside. It is
sometimes also called a pasta strainer or kitchen sieve.
13.Spatula
can often refer to any utensil fitting
the above description. One variety is
alternately referred toas a turner, and
is used to lift and turn food items
during cooking, such as pancakes and
fillets. These are usually made of
plastic, with a wooden or plastic
handle to insulate them from heat.
Question:
What would be the effect of having a kitchen utensil that is made
up of plastic in our health?
ANSWER:
High temperature cooking will form PAHs (PULMONARY ARTERIAL HYPERTENTION)
in our food especially when using plastic utensil. The long term health effects of
continued exposure of large amount of exposure to PAHs may include cataracts,
kidney and liver damaged and jaundice.
14. Tongs
are used for gripping and lifting tools,
of which there are many forms
adapted to their specific use.
15. Whisk
is a cooking utensil used in food
preparation to blend ingredients
smooth, or to incorporate air into
a mixture, in a process known as
whisking or whipping. Most whisks
consist of a long, narrow handle
with a series of wire loops joined
at the end. The wires are usually
metal, but some are plastic for use
with nonstick cookware.
