Every kitchen needs a baking sheet (aka jellyroll pan). Not only are they great for baking cookies and pizza, but you can put it under a roast to catch drippings.
So you're probably saying to yourself, okay but what's the big deal, a piece of metal is a piece of metal, right?
The next item on my
ultimate kitchen list is a 2 quart saucepan. This size is perfect for sauces, heating up small amounts of soup, oatmeal, etc.
Try to find one that has a good grip and a handle that will not conduct too much heat.
