Put frequently used prep tools where they are easy to reach, keep a clear bowl ready and choose one small task to simplify.
Prepare before the pan heats
Gather eggs, fruit and vegetables first. A tidy sequence reduces hurried cutting and cleanup.
Use each tool for its intended job
Peelers and egg-opening tools contain sharp metal edges. Work over a stable surface and keep fingers away from cutting areas.
End with an easy reset
Rinse tools promptly, dry them well and return them to a consistent storage spot.
