The Cheap Kitchen Tool I Bring to Every Rental House or Airbnb
Cooking without this inexpensive acccessory is a nonstarter.
When you're invited into someone else's kitchen—whether it's for a family gathering or a rental property stay—it's smart to bring your own cooking essentials. Among the most indispensable tools to pack is a Microplane. This handheld zester proves invaluable for citrus zest, garlic, ginger, and even freshly grated nutmeg. Unlike a paring knife or a box grater, the Microplane effortlessly shaves citrus rinds to avoid pith, creates fine zest without sharpness, and grates spices and garlic for a quick, clean finish.
At just about $18, a Microplane offers exceptional value and convenience, making it a must-have for confident cooking in any kitchen.
