Agreed. I've got the 16 inch model and my only regret is not buying a smaller one to go with it.
YMMV, but my boyfriend has those tongs, and I haaaaaaate them. Every time I pinch something, the little ring slides back down and folds them again. Hate hate hate. I much prefer these, I just bang them on the counter to open them.
Recommend the type of tongs that lock, like these. They're much easier to work with and take up less space in the kitchen tool drawer.
I'd say the essentials include a non-stick frying pan, a smaller pot (2-3 qts), a larger pot (5qts+), a cutting board, a chef's knife, measuring cups, measuring spoons, mixing bowls, a whisk, heat resistant silicone spatula, stirring spoons, serving spoon, ladle, aluminum baking sheet, tongs and can opener. With all of the above, I can cook ~ 90% of what I usually cook.
I, personally, don't care much for cast iron skillets. They require too much care and too much oil to keep up to snuff. I prefer a nice three-ply fry pan (This is what I own). A couple splurges on my part were a 2 qt saucier (was on sale for $50) which is great for making sauces of any sort because the whisk can fit in the rounded bottom of the pan. I also like the All-Clad 4Qt. Essential pan, with the tall sides and wide top. It's easy to make something a bit larger with this pan.
Finally, I bake all of my pizza on a cheap round pizza pan. It's not the fanciest, but it gets the job down well.
Meduim. Nom
Finally got one of these, very very useful.
No soup for you!
Unless you like soup? /u/bunnylebowski1 hi! I've talked to you briefly a few times, but not very much, how are you?
> you're giving people false hope that jobs and higher wages are coming back.
No I'm not. You're STILL missing my entire point. I didn't say a thing about wages or jobs. China has an advantage because they don't have environmental regulations. Now that the costs of manufacturing are comparable, we should absolutely re shore our manufacturing as a means of slowing global warming, regardless of whether or not it gives anyone a job.
Oh, and by the way, I own an American made set of tongs which sell for a whopping $14.25 on Amazon. The best selling foreign made tongs on Amazon go for $12.95. I bring this up to illustrate to you that there isn't a major price difference between Chinese and US made goods because you still can't comprehend my point.
