The speaker suggests using the 'no junk rule' to identify what is essential and what is non-essential but value-adding in the kitchen. They emphasize that everyone's essentials are different and what is essential for one person may be junk for another. The rule helps in categorizing belongings into essential, value-adding, and junk, and highlights the subjective nature of essentials based on individual needs and preferences.
The Minimalists talk about their minimalist kitchen essentials, the No Junk Rule, and letting go of embarrassment. Watch all 2 hours of episode 430 on The Minimalists Private Podcast.
