Measuring Cups and Other Kitchen Essentials

There are some kitchen necessities that it's easy to take for granted. These are the reliable tools that perform simple but essential kitchen tasks - things like measuring cups, measuring spoons, whisks and mixing bowls. These straightforward utensils and tools are kitchen standards that no home cook will want to be without.

The Details

Whether you're just starting out with your own kitchen or looking to replace or update some kitchen basics, Williams Sonoma has a wide selection of options in each category. First up are measuring cups and measuring spoons. While some experienced cooks don't feel the need to measure out exact amounts of each ingredient, most people will feel a lot more comfortable, particularly when making a dish for the first time, if they have the tools necessary to make exact measurements, and even the most skilled chefs wouldn't attempt to bake without measuring cups and spoons or a scale. Here are a few of the measuring utensils available at Williams Sonoma:

  • Copper Measuring Cups - This set of four measuring cups includes 1/4, 1/3, 1/2 and 1-cup measures, all made of stainless steel with copper-plated exteriors. The striking set introduces the lustrous shine of copper into your kitchen and elevates the look of this simple kitchen tool.
  • All-Clad Stainless Steel Measuring Cups & Spoons - Made of polished 18/10 stainless steel, this set is designed with durability in mind. Each piece of this eight-piece set is a miniature version of All-Clad's classic saucepan and features a polished finish and the brand's signature riveted handles.
  • Williams Sonoma Round Melamine Measuring Cups & Spoons - Available as a set of seven measuring cups, a set of seven measuring spoons or a set of 14 that includes both, this versatile collection is essential for everyday baking and cooking. Made of shatterproof, lightweight melamine, these measuring cups and spoons are perfect for baking with little ones.

Once you've picked out all of the measuring utensils you'll need, you'll want to make sure that your kitchen is stocked with whisks and spoons for mixing all of those newly measured ingredients together. Of course, that also means that you'll need to have a collection of mixing bowls on hand as well. Fortunately, Williams Sonoma has you covered there as well. Read on for more about a few of the other key kitchen tools you can find at Williams Sonoma.
