The right tools won't turn you into a perfect chef, but they can't hurt. Looking to celebrity chefs like Ina Garten is the perfect place to source inspiration; her pantry is the nexus of it all.
The pantry shelving in Ina Garten's storage space features all the backstock she needs to keep her kitchen neat and organized, while keeping all the items she needs accessible. It's a veritable treasure trove of Ina's favorites, from her mixing bowls, to her roasting pan, to her dutch ovens.
She organizes her pantry with white baker's shelves stacked six rows high. She keeps boxes on the bottom shelf and bowls on the next. Ina stores her collection of Le Creuset Dutch ovens and glassware on the midle shelf. Next up is plates, and then ceramic ware. Finally, she stores large canisters on the tip-top shelf, likely for flours or other backstock grains.
