Stock Your RV's Kitchen With These Essentials

RV kitchens are not known for spaciousness, which can make stocking them a challenge. You need enough supplies to create a variety of delicious, healthy meals. But there's only enough room for a limited number of items. What's a chef on the road to do?

Here at Airstream of Utah, we strive to make your life easier. We gathered up the essential RV kitchen accessories below. These items help maximize space without sacrificing meal variety or cooking efficiency. For more travel advice or to shop campers for sale in Utah, visit our dealership.

For Expanding Counter Space

It's no big secret that counter space can be limited in even the largest campers. Sinks and stove tops cut into the valuable surface space, but there is a way to get it back - without removing these crucial appliances.

Enter: the stove top and sink covers. These handy RV kitchen accessories can go on top of the sink and stove top, giving you instantly more room. Some of them even work as cutting boards, making food preparation a breeze.

When the covers are not in use, simply fold them up and stow them in a nearby nook and cranny.

For One Pot Cooking

One pot cooking is a perfect approach in a camper kitchen. Instead of making a meal using several pots and pans that take up room, try making the same dish in a slow cooker or pressure cooker. Simply dump the ingredients in the pot, adjust the settings, and you are set. These appliances take up little room on their own, helping you maximize the room in your RV's kitchen.

Plus, you can safely walk away while the meal cooks. No longer are you stuck in the kitchen constantly stirring. Instead, let your dinner cook while you go hiking or visit nearby tourist attractions. Return to your camper at the end of the day to a perfectly prepared meal.

For Reducing Item Breakage On The Road

The drive to the campsite can be less than smooth, whether it's a bump caused by hitting a pothole or a quick slam on the brakes due to a deer jumping onto the road. The sudden changes in speed or direction can pose a threat to delicate items. Most people know not to pack their precious china dishware in the RV, but even regular glass or ceramic dishware can break during the road trip.

That's why investing in shatterproof dishware is a wise move. There are plenty of options, such as melamine or Corelle dishes, that can withstand the rigors of the road. These will be able to last you many years, making them good bang for your buck.

For Cooking Outside

On hot summer days, you don't want to cook inside your camper. It can become unbearable as the stove or oven begins to heat up!

A better alternative is cooking outside using a portable grill. Pick up a compact model for easy storage, then take it outside when you are ready to use it. Portable grills can cook all kinds of meat and vegetables, giving you plenty of meal options.

For Making The Most Of Cabinet Space

There are cookware sets, storage containers, and mixing bowls that are designed to fit inside each other. The stackable approach helps you fit more items inside the RV kitchen's limited cabinet space.

For Easily Preparing Food

A hand blender is a compact portable machine that offers impressive versatility. Thanks to its powerful motor and attachments, it can shred, mince, emulsify, and dice many fruits and vegetables. Use it to create sauces, soups, smoothies, and more...without needing to bring along a massive countertop blender.
