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.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
