While you are busy bustling with all the decorative things that make the holidays look and feel festive, this a timely reminder that you also need to pay attention to what you need to get in the kitchen to make your holiday cooking and baking a success.
HARDWARE
Pots & Pans
Check the capacity of your pots and pans. In other words, check and double check their sizes so that you know they can hold the quantities of things you want to cook/bake in them. Consider, if you will be entertaining, whether or not you can make everything in one pot/pan or if you may need to cook in batches. To save time and money, you may want to consider getting disposable baking pans. These days, you can find not only aluminium pans but other baking dishes and pans made with sturdy materials that are oven safe.
