Food items which no American kitchen should be without:
- salt
- sugar
- wheat flour
- onions of some type
- potatoes
- whole black peppercorns
- ground cinnamon
- tomatoes
- vinegar
- eggs
- basic cheeses (we always keep cheddar, mozzarella, and jack handy)
- milk
- butter
If you have these ingredients, you can make a wide variety of dishes and sauces. Many of these ingredients, particularly flour, onions, potatoes, and eggs are very inexpensive. You will use at least one of these ingredients in almost every dish you prepare. It is good to keep them on hand fairly regularly.
