Where do you keep kitchen utensils?

[mumumental]

I now have no less than 3 big pottery jars on the worktop containing fish slices, ladles, wooden spoons or other crap. Please let me know your better solutions! I’m in the mood for a clear up.

Only one jar and the rest in the cutlery drawer? Unless you need all this, I’d have a cull!

Sharp knives on a magnetic strip on the wall, fish slices, wooden spoons, ladles etc in a deep plastic box at one end of one of our deep pan drawers (90cm so lots of room). We also have a 90cm cutlery drawer so smaller things like tin opener, bottle opener all go in there with the cutlery. No jars.

In a draw. I have an absolute loathing of clutter on kitchen worktops and keep mine to a minimum.

In a drawer. I hate cluttered work surfaces. They make the kitchen look so untidy.

All in a deep drawer with a couple of baskets to store them in. Can’t stand clutter on the worktop.

I have one knife block and one jar full of spatulas and things. Anything that doesn't fit gets shoved into one of many narrow drawers that don't fit much else in them.

In a drawer, having them out would annoy me.

In the drawer of doom - it's full of fish slices, garlic crush, spoons, etc...take a deep breath before you open it....

1 jar of most used.
In a drawer for anything else.

Knife block on the counter, everything else in the kitchen utensil drawer. Cannot stand clutter on the counter tops, makes it so time consuming to clean the kitchen.

one jar is sufficient ?

I mean ladles - you can only use one at a time so just have one ?

Like others, 1 jar of things I use daily and the rest in the drawers. I only started having a jar when DH and I both started WFH, so every meal is at home.

Game changer. Magnetic. All frequently used metal implements; knives, scissors, serving spoons etc, to easy hand. No sharp knives in drawers. Drawer space freed up. No extra workspace clutter. Was about £10 on Amazon, comes in various sizes.

We went for more drawers than cupboards when redoing our kitchen. Set up is 2 deep drawers and a shallower one on top, all quite wide. One shallow top drawer has cutlery, one has spice jars, one has chopping boards and an in-drawer knife holder, the other is under the hob and holds the utensils. Possibly not that helpful unless youre redesigning your kitchen, but it is an ideal set up for us. I'd recommend sacrificing a drawer for most of them, keep one jar on the counter, and maybe somewhere less accessible to dump anything thats only occasionally used?

Drawers.
All the things I use on the hob are in the drawer under the hob, the baking things are in the drawer under where I do the baking and the knives are in the drawer under where I do chopping.

I do have a jar of wooden spoons on the worktop but they are purely decorative.
I couldn’t settle with loads of knives on display, bad vibes.

Does anyone else read a title and click on it just in the hope that there is no real OP in there so they can answer the title only…

If this were one of those I was coming to say: in the kitchen

Love it!

I tried keeping the most used stuff in a nice jar but within a week they had cobwebs all over them. So now they’re in the top drawer and I also have a plastic container in the drawer containing small things as they were getting lost amongst everything else.

I still hanker after my colourful jar with wooden spoons in though 😭.

2 x jars, a knife block and a very small, shallow drawer. We cook a lot, plus our kitchen has practically no drawer space, the one shallow drawer used to jam up all the time when a ladle spun around!

Our new kitchen will have lots of drawers and hidden drawers to take this stuff.

I have a couple of pottery jars on a shelf tucked in between the cupboard and the wall, a magnetic knife rack on the wall and anything else goes into one of the drawers.

Kitchen drawer. Don’t want them all on show.

I would have everything off the counters, other than toaster, microwave and the most essential kitchen utensil, the radio...but when my now husband moved in, he took over the kitchen and insists on a metal "jar" with spatulas and fish slices in. It drives me quietly crackers. It gathers crud and cobwebs and I wash it with gritted teeth, praying for rust.

In fairness, he probably hates the radio.

All utensils in one large drawer beneath hob
