3
Let's get started with our first  category of action verbs in the kitchen.
4
The first category are kitchen verbs that  are also nouns. You can learn two things for the price of one. I blend ingredients in a blender, maybe to make a smoothie. My husband grinds coffee beans in the grinder.
5
Are you ready for this one? I toast a piece of toast in the toaster.
6
Oh my goodness, I toast a piece of toast in the  toaster. Unfortunately, I don't have any bread in my house today, but you can imagine what this  does. I toast a piece of toast in the toaster.
7
I peel a carrot with peeler. I grate the cheese with a grater.
8
Notice that the T in grater sounds like a  D in American English. This is very common that a T between vowel sounds will sound  like a D. I grate the cheese with a grater.
9
I strain my food with a strainer. Or you can  say, I strain my food through a strainer.
10
I open the can of tomatoes with a can opener.
11
I whisk the pancake batter with a whisk. Notice  that the H is silent. It only sounds like whisk.
12
I use a mixer to mix the ingredients. I don't  have a mixer, I always mix ingredients by hand.
13
I baste the turkey with a baster. I freeze meat in the freezer.
14
When I want to grill meat, I use the  grill. In the US, we say to grill more often than to barbecue. I don't usually say,  when I want to barbecue meat, usually, I say, when I want to grill meat, I use the grill. I chop the carrot. Or you could say, I slice the carrot thinly. We also use  to slice for bread. I slice the bread.
15
I taste the sauce before I add more spices. I bake cookies in the oven.
16
Or, I roast a chicken in the oven. I use the tea kettle to boil some water.
17
I let the sauce simmer over low heat. I heat up my food in the microwave. But we can also use a fun word, to nuke. I  nuke my food in the microwave, nuke it.
18
I nuke my food in the microwave. I fry bacon and eggs for breakfast.
19
When you fry, usually, you use a lot of oil. Or  you can say, I saute my vegetables for dinner.
20
This usually uses less oil, to saute something. I brown the meat before I add the spaghetti sauce. I brown the meat. The word brown can be  an adjective. My hair is brown. But, it can also be a verb, to brown meat. This usually means that  you don't completely cook it, but the outside is brown, and it's ready to be added to the dish  and cooked a little more, to brown some meat.
21
I steam my vegetables for dinner. And what's  this called? This is a steamer basket.
22
I use a steamer basket to steam my vegetables. I pour the sauce on the spaghetti.
23
I spread butter on the bread. As I said, I  have no bread in my house right now, I'm sorry, but here's a picture. I  spread butter on the bread.
24
My son likes to sprinkle cheese on his spaghetti.  The word sprinkle is also a noun. "It's this?" Hmm, these are sprinkles. Usually, you add  them to a cake, or maybe to cupcakes. These are sprinkles. You could sprinkle sprinkles on a  cake, or you could sprinkle cheese on your food.
25
I like to add salt and pepper to my food.  But, do you know something strange? Ever since I had my first son, I don't like pepper  anymore. If a dish has a lot of pepper, usually, I don't like it. But before having  children, I didn't care. Very strange.
26
Let's talk about some verbs  for cleaning up the kitchen.
27
At the end of dinner, we clear the table. We pile up the dirty dishes in the sink.
28
I scrape the leftover food into a bowl to give to  our chickens. They'll be so happy. I scrape the leftover food into a bowl to give to our chickens. I scrub the food off of the dish, but if I can't clean it well, then I need  to soak the dish. This means I put hot, soapy water in the dish, and I let it sit for  one hour, maybe overnight, and it helps me to clean the dish better. I let the dish soak. Do you have a dishwasher? If you said no, you need to squirt some dish soap onto a rag. And, I'm  sorry, you need to do the dishes by hand. Whoa, I had lots of water in it. You need to do the dishes  by hand. Do you do the dishes by hand at home?
29
When I'm done washing a dish by hand, I let it  dry. I let it dry on the drying rack. Or we can say, I let it air-dry. And in fact, we can say the  same thing for your hair. After you take a shower, you can use a hair dryer, or you can let your hair  air-dry. This is generally better for your hair, but not everyone does it. You can let your  hair air-dry, or you can let a dish air-dry.
30
When the dishes are all done,  I stack them on the shelf.
31
Do you have a dishwasher? You're pretty  lucky. You can load the dishwasher, and when it's done, you can unload the dishwasher. The dishwasher sterilizes the dishes. If you had raw chicken or something that's not  so good on your dishes, don't worry, the dishwasher will sterilize your dishes. After I unload the dishes, I need to sort the silverware; forks, spoons, knives, and chopsticks. Our final category is generally cleaning the kitchen. My mom always told me, "You should clean as you go." To clean as you go  means to clean while you're cooking. If you're waiting for the water to boil, well, you can  wipe the counter. Great, do you clean as you go?
32
When I'm done cooking, I try to tidy up. To tidy  up makes things look neat. I try to tidy up.
33
After dinner, I put away the leftovers in a  container. Do you know what this type of container is called? Well, I'm going to leave it a mystery.  You should watch this video that I made about many, many kitchen words right here in my kitchen. I squeeze the water out of my sponge, or my rag so that it doesn't drip. I  squeeze the water out of the sponge.
34
I wipe down the sink when I'm done. If my children have made an incredible mess, I sweep the floor with a  broom. Notice, you cannot say, I broom the floor with a broom. Nope, you  should say, I sweep the floor with a broom.
35
Or if we ate spaghetti, and there is sauce  everywhere, I mop the floor with a mop.
36
If there is something I can't give my  chickens, I dump it in the trash, and my husband takes out the trash. My husband  takes out the trash when it's full.
37
And finally, I pump some soap  onto my hay hands and wash them.

Übungstipps

Um die in dieser Lektion gelernten Verben effektiv zu üben, empfehle ich, die Shadowing-Technik anzuwenden. Schauen Sie sich das Video mehrmals an und wiederholen Sie die Sätze synchron mit dem Sprecher. Achten Sie dabei besonders auf die Geschwindigkeit und den Tonfall. Wenn Vanessa ein Wort wie „to whisk“ betont, versuchen Sie es direkt nachzusprechen. Dies wird Ihnen helfen, Ihre Englische Aussprache verbessern und Ihre fließenden Sprachfähigkeiten zu entwickeln. Verwenden Sie auch eine Stoppuhr, um Ihre Fortschritte zu messen. Beginnen Sie langsam und steigern Sie dann allmählich die Geschwindigkeit, bis Sie das Gefühl haben, im Gleichklang mit dem Sprecher zu sein. Mit dieser Methode, auch bekannt als shadow speech, steigern Sie nicht nur Ihre Selbstsicherheit, sondern auch Ihr Verständnis der englischen Sprache in praxisnahen Situationen.

Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?

Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
