Troy bought Elaina all of the kitchen needs that Elaina might need though most of them are the basic ones. The advanced tools that are necessary for cooking advanced recipes are something that Troy didn't buy since not only are they expensive, but there is also no special occasion that would warrant Elaina to cook any, to begin with. And Elaina also begged Troy not to buy the advanced tools either since even she, acknowledges herself as a newbie to cooking.
She can cook, but only simple meals. For advanced meals, she will need some recipes memorized or followed to the finest instructions to complete. So, what is a better kitchen to use as a practice ground than a kitchen that has the basic needs necessary? A newbie will not be using those advanced tools just yet.
And right now? Elaina is currently testing her mettle in creating something using the new tools.
