An interesting thought.....

Once upon a time - I came across what I thought was a word (starting with a "t" for some reason) but have since discovered that it is really a phrase.......


mise en place

[MEEZ ahn plahs]

A French term referring to having all the ingredients necessary for a dish prepared and ready to combine up to the point of cooking.

What a great concept!

Based on this definition - I think this is how it should work...










This is how I feel it works in my kitchen...










I have a new goal that doesn't begin with a "T" - ha ha ha!


NOTE: These are not my pictures and I would give credit where it is due - if I could find the sticky note that had the information.......

  1. How great is that phrase? It heralds me back to my home economics days in high school where we had strict timing and organisational plans. Really, it was a French lesson in disguise, non?
