What You Need to Marie Kondo Your Kitchen

Get Organized No Images? Click here   Trying to Marie Kondo-ify Your Kitchen? Here's What You Need.  These storage and organization tools will keep you clutter-free and full of joy all year long. Storage Containers OXO Pop Containers continue to be some of our favorites for dry storage. They're lightweight, airtight, and the button makes them really easy to open and seal. While the 10-pack is pricey, it comes with a bunch of different sizes, ideal for storing everything from nuts to flour to dried beans. For something a little less expensive, try glass storage containers like these.   Nesting Storage Containers Taking a cue from professional kitchens, we rely pretty heavily on pint and quart deli containers to store veggies or dry goods. They can be filled with stocks or soups and stored in the freezer (it helps that they're stackable); the quart containers are also perfect for storing leafy herbs like cilantro and parsley. A Magnetic Knife Rack Magnetic knife strips don’t just save precious drawer space; they also look pretty badass hanging on your wall. They'll keep your knives from rubbing up against other utensils, which can make them dull (and can be dangerous, too). If you do prefer to keep your knives tucked away, this in-drawer knife dock is a great solution.  A Utensil Crock For tools like spatulas and whisks, a good old crock will do the trick, like this ceramic one, which is extra pretty. If you have a dirty utensil but still need it later on, don't set it down and make a mess of your counter, get one of these spoon rests instead.   Command Hooks To store utensils and make even more use of your walls, we love Command strip hooks, which come in a wide variety of sizes and finishes. They’re actually quite durable and can stay on walls for years.. (If you're a renter, they're a great way to store tools, towels, oven mitts, and more without poking too many holes in the walls.)     Get the rest of our recommendations for a *joyful* kitchen right here.

And believe me, it's worth the extra effort. Full-on crisp, crackly, ever-so-slightly greasy, perfectly juicy and succulent, sauce-coated, tangy, vinegary Buffalo wing perfection in every lip-licking, finger-dripping bite.

Your Next Weeknight Meal Plan (And Weekend Cooking Project!)

What to Cook Next Week No Images? Click here   After a busy day, the last thing you want to do is spend hours in the kitchen pulling dinner together. Luckily, we have a wealth of delicious weeknight meals that will have you in and out of the kitchen in one hour or less. Meet our weekly dinner plan: Five easy dinners for five busy weeknights, all sent in advance so you can get your shopping done ahead of time. Cook along with us!   Your Week Ahead MONDAY 30-Minute Pressure Cooker Split Pea and Ham Soup The pressure cooker makes short work of pea soup, cooking the dried peas in half the time it would traditionally take and doing all the work of the blender as well. Rich, creamy comfort is just half an hour away.   TUESDAY Chicken Katsu (Japanese Breaded Chicken Cutlets) Juicy chicken cutlets in a crisp layer of golden-brown bread crumbs, with a sweet-and-savory sauce is a simple and delicious weeknight meal. Just like they have in the food courts in Japan. WEDNESDAY Foolproof Pan Pizza This is the sort of thick-crusted, fried-on-the-bottom, puffy, cheesy, focaccia-esque style you might remember having as a Pizza Hut personal pan pizza when you were a kid. Now you can bake it at home in your cast iron skillet. THURSDAY Penne Boscaiola (Woodsman-Style Pasta With Mushrooms and Bacon) This earthy, smoky classic pasta dish has all the flavors of the forest and a campfire packed into it. Loaded with mushrooms, bacon, tomatoes, and a touch of cream, it'll momentarily transport you from wherever you are to a cabin in a wintertime woodland. FRIDAY Creamy Vegan Saag Paneer The wonderful thing about saag paneer—the Indian staple of greens and fresh cheese in a creamy sauce—is that, in our experience, it's almost universally loved by vegetarians and meat-eaters alike. Paired with warm, pillowy pita, it makes for a perfect special Friday meal.     Your Weekend Project Ah, the weekend. Visions of time-consuming kitchen endeavors dancing in your head all week long, and finally you have the time to pursue them. But which one to choose? Let us help you guide your efforts with what we're taking on over the weekend.  100% Whole Wheat Sandwich Bread With a little patience and the help of a food processor, it's possible for 100% whole wheat bread to bake up as fluffy, light, and chewy as a classic white loaf, but with all the nuttiness, flavor, and virtue of whole grains. Absolutely worth it for a week's worth of sandwiches and toast.     Serious Eats 88 35th St Ste 602 Brooklyn, NY 11232-2017 Click Preferences to control which emails you receive from Serious Eats.
