Kitchen staples...

What are the things you always have on hand? I'm thinking besides pantry staples like flour, sugar, etc.

I'm thinking stuff you make sure you never run out of.

Primary staples for me:
  • Garlic, onion, shallots
  • Some kind of fresh herb (thyme, rosemary, basil, parsley)
  • Chicken broth (fresh and frozen or boxed)
  • A good unsalted butter
  • Parmigiano reggiano or some other good salty, hard cheese
  • High quality extra virgin olive oil
  • Pasta
  • Rice
  • Eggs

I also try to keep lemon or lime around, but I can't really call that something I always have.

This was hard to answer for me, as well, I had to look the word up to be completely sure.

So here's my list of always on hand basics and storage:
I have a section of my garage for long-term food storage that is temp controlled.

Other: Organic Carrots, Bag of Limes and at least one lemon, Pink Grapefruit, Tube of Tomato Paste for Cooking, always have a bulb of fresh Garlic
Dried: Black Beans, Pinto Beans, Soup Bean Blend, Chickpeas, Red & Yellow Lentils, Ancho Chilis, Brown Rice, Oatmeal, Popcorn, Both whole grain, white or corn Gluten-Free Pastas in various shapes and forms.

Fresh Garden Herbs: Mint, Thyme, Oregano, Dill, Chives, and Basil that keeps getting eating by slugs. ( Sounds yummy huh?)

Dried Herbs and Spices: An assortment but I'd say Parsley, Whole Peppercorns, Garlic and Onion Granules are the main must have there at all times. So I consider them Basic Staples.

Frozen: Bacon, Frozen Peas, Corn, Sweet Potato Fries, Japanese Blend, Stiry-Fry Blend, my own Veggie Broth, Chipotles in Adobo Sauce, Hush Puppies, Phyllo Dough, Spelt Tortillas whole grain & white, Millet Flax Loaf of Bread, Buns and Crumbs (that I make and store),Frozen Peaches, Pineapple and Mixed Fruit, Ice

I re-thot your question. If that pizza lays around all the time, then yes, it would be a staple. When it rots or gets eaten by ants and disappears, then it'll need to be re-stocked.

So, there ya' know. Thank me later.

No. Well maybe. I was just trying to relate that I think it'S cool that I'm at the point in my cooking where I can just go to through the store on autopilot grabbing ingredients and make a week's worth of meals from them without even really knowing exactly what meals I'm going to even make until the night I make them.

That's what I meant by my question. I sure there are plenty of posters on here who are incredible cooks, you being one of them, and I still plan on hiring you as my personal cook when I win the lottery.

I mean I cut down a tree in my backyard this week, but I don't consider myself a lumberjack.

Gotta say, an interesting way I've found to keep ingredients down (and cook cheaper) is to just focus on one specific cuisine until you wipe out the ingredients. Greek food, for example… if you have cucumbers, yogurt, lemons, mint, onions, and mediterranean spices on hand, all you have to do is buy meat or vegetables and you can make a lot of creative shit.

I've got some heath woe so I've been on a different 'way of eating' for a year or 2 - lost about 70 lbs, so it's working for me. I don't eat a big variety of stuff, I pretty much live on the same things. Instant oatmeal + oat bran + ground flax seed + chia seed & coffee. 'Dal' made from split peas and chicken broth, spices (curry) and onions/garlic - it may sound boring but I like it and it's good for me. I usually eat a cup of this stuff plus a turkey sandwich for lunch daily. Big salad w/hardboiled eggs or yellowfin tuna for supper most nights. So I keep this stuff around, plus some fruit for snacks. That's about it these days.
