  1. Thanks for this post on key terms used in the kitchen! I learned a lot of new terms that I'll definitely be using in my own cooking.

    The 21 Gun Salute also has a great resource on key terms used in professional kitchens. They have a glossary of terms that covers everything from cooking techniques to ingredients to kitchen equipment.

    I highly recommend checking it out if you're looking to learn more about the language of the kitchen.
