Get Vacation-Ready No Images? Click here What to Pack for Your Vacation-Rental Kitchen Vacation-rental kitchens are rarely equipped with the tools and ingredients you need to make a good meal. Here's what we pack—from equipment to pantry essentials—to make it feel like we're cooking at home when we’re away from home. Get the whole story here. It may be impractical to bring an entire knife set on vacation, but we absolutely recommend packing a cheap but good chef's knife for chopping vegetables, slicing meat, and other basic tasks. A sturdy plastic cutting board doesn't take up much space, and it'll ensure you won't get stuck trimming your fruit on a porcelain plate. Bring a few cheap plastic deli containers and plastic zip-top bags to pack up leftovers after you cook. It's not that your rental's kitchen won't have salt—but it might not be the salt you were hoping for. Bring a little container of our favorite kosher salt. You won't regret it.
