Rachel Miller is a food writer, chef and cheese lover who joined me to talk about her experiences of being a vacation rental guest who loves to cook.
I came across Rachel after she wrote a piece for the Phoenix New Times called Tips and Hacks for Baking in Your Vacation Rental. Needless to say I was curious to find out what it was like for a real live ‘foodie’ to stay at a vacation home.
Rachel talks about her experiences and shares a lot of great information that we can take and put immediately into action.
Who knew that restaurant supply stores would be a great source of more durable and more economic cutting boards, or baking trays?
What about buying your next knives from a specialty knife store?
Or ordering herbs and spices in bulk from a wholesaler?
In this episode Rachel shares:
- Her views on being a vacation rental guest
- The equipment every vacation home should have
- The specific small appliance that needs to be in any kitchen labeled as ‘gourmet’.
- Why getting a kitchen inventory is helpful
- Why attention to detail is so important
- The items she would like to see in a herb and spice collection
- What she would include in her own vacation home
- The importance of a sharp knife
- Why restaurant suppliers are a great resource for kitchen equipment
