Actually, a description of a Master Cook's "accoutrements" was somewhat 
described as follows:

The Cook orders, regulates and is obeyed in his Kitchen; he should have 
a chair between the buffet and the fireplace to sit on and rest if 
necessary; the chair should be so placed that he can see and survey 
everything that is being done in the Kitchen; he should have in his hand 
a large wooden spoon which has a double function:  one, to test pottages 
and brouets, and the other, to chase the children out of the Kitchen to 
make them work, striking them if necessary.
