The heavyweight encapsulated bottom and wide sloping sides of this Demeyere Maslin pan with Lid creates the ideal combination for slow simmering stews and soups or cooking jelly or jam, allowing optimal evaporation to prevent scorching.

A classic kitchen companion, this user-friendly stand mixer features a powerful 275-watt motor that can handle a wide variety of culinary mixing tasks.

Sometimes overlooked as a valuable kitchen tool, tongs can toss salads, turn over pieces of meat, pull artichokes out of a pot, and so much more.

I’ve used at least one bowl from this set everyday for 17 years.  Whether you’re baking, prepping for dinner or in my case, teaching a class, these are a must have.

I have one in every size that I have been buying since I was a newlywed.  All-Clad is worth every penny and how can you beat a lifetime warranty?

I prefer a large, solid cutting board.  Wood contains natural antibacterial properties and is much gentler on your knives than plastic.

I don’t have too many knives, just a few really good ones that I keep razor sharp.  It makes cooking such a pleasure.  This chef’s knife is indespensible.

The most important tool in your kitchen is a good quality, sharp knife.  This Shun is not too heavy and feels good in your hand.
