In the dictionary, "pantry" is defined as "a small room or closet, usually off a kitchen, where food, tableware, linens, and similar items are stored". That would be nice but no such luck in this house. For me "pantry" is just a general term I use for the items I keep stocked in the cupboards, fridge and freezer. These are items that I almost always have on hand and allow me to throw together a bunch of different dishes without having to constantly step out to the grocery store.
Pantry favorites:
eggs
Parmesan cheese
milk
heavy cream
flat leaf parsley or cilantro
other fresh herbs

onions
jar of chopped garlic in oil
capers
olives
lemons

mac and cheese
panko bread crumbs
canned chicken noodle soup
canned chicken broth
canned whole tomatoes
tomato paste
canned beans
cornmeal
flour

mustard (whole grain Dijon)
assorted vinegars (balsamic, red wine, champagne, apple cider, rice, malt, sherry(I'm like a vinegar hoarder!!!))
maple syrup
frozen shrimp

frozen grilled veggies
good bread
red and white wine
