📕 Get the full cookbook - The Lunch Lady's $3,600-a-Year Grocery Cut (175 recipes & tricks, scaled for 1, 2 or a family): www.dorislunchlady.com/ Forty dollars for a box that chops an onion. Twenty-five for a machine that boils seven eggs. A hundred and fifty for one that sucks the air out of a bag. I fed four hundred children a day for thirty-five years and not one of those three was in that building. A knife, a heavy pan and a bowl. I am Mrs. Doris. Riverbend Elementary, Scioto County, Ohio, on a dollar and five cents a tray. Lyle Prather sold equipment to school kitchens and brought me a catalog twice a year. Twice a year I handed it back. Walk down a kitchen aisle now and it is the same catalog, aimed at you instead. Twenty-five of them. What the shop charges, what does the same job for nothing, and why it works. Not one brand name in the whole video, because the problem is not who made it. The problem is that you already own the thing that does it. THE ONE I TELL YOU TO BUY Number two is the only thing in this video I am telling you to go out and get. I paid for mine myself in 1984 because the district would not, and I used it four hundred times a day for thirty years. It is not a shortcut. It makes every portion the same size, and things that are the same size finish cooking at the same time. That is the whole of it. THE ONE I WANT OUT OF YOUR KITCHEN Number eighteen is the only one here I would not keep at all, and that is not about money. We were not allowed one on our floor without a steel glove on the hand holding the food, and you do not have a steel glove. The guard gets put down for one potato, and that is the potato it happens on. THE FOUR THINGS Almost every item on this list came down to the same four. A sharp knife. A heavy pan. A bowl. Your hands. If your knife is dull, most of this video does not work, and that is number seven. Which of these is sitting in your drawer, and which one are you going to defend down there? There is always one. I read them all.
