Real vanilla extract, from a gourmet kitchen store- I don't use it a lot, but when I do I TOTALLY notice the difference!
Kosher salt! None of this fancy-schmancy sea salt crap... didn't she watch Alton Brown's one hour special on salt???
Panko... I don't cook with it a whole lot, but I make chicken parmesian with it- learned that trick from Rachael herself! Makes it super crispy and extra good!
Brick of good parmesian in the fridge at ALL TIMES!
