Kitchen Must-Haves

This impeccably designed colander is one of our top selling kitchen gadgets—and for good reason. The rectangular shape accommodates longer ingredients like carrots or kale, and the extendable handles suspend the colander over the sink, instead of down with dirty dishes inside the sink or puddling on the countertop. The just-right perforations are designed to be big enough to quickly wash produce but not so big that smaller ingredients like lentils pass through.

If you haven’t made the switch from salt shaker to salt cellar, we are here to change your mind. (As are 500+ of our customers who have left 5-star reviews for this item.) This beautiful, solid acacia wood salt cellar allows you to generously pinch and sprinkle salt while cooking for more accuracy and better layers of seasoning. The swivel top protects the salt from dust and debris when not in use.

With end-grain wood, your knife slices with the grain instead of against it to help preserve both your knife and the board. One reviewer raves, “Love this cutting board we got as a wedding gift 10 years ago. Still in daily use.” Plus, the square shape makes a beautiful display piece for charcuterie or decor as well.

What could be so special about measuring spoons? This stainless steel set is about as close to perfect as we can get: heavy-duty, dishwasher-safe, and–a thoughtful touch– stable bases and curved handle ends that allow them to sit upright on the counter for filling in addition to scooping. Brilliant.

We have been singing the praises of these reusable scrubbing pads to anyone who will listen. Made from textured cotton, they safely remove grit and mess from most cookware and kitchen surfaces. Most impressively, they clean up in either the dishwasher or the washing machine, saving you from a lifetime of smelly kitchen sponges.

Perfectly organized kitchen drawers unlock a new level of luxury. Our expandable flatware tray is made from renewable bamboo and keeps forks, knives, spoons and all kinds of kitchen utensils neatly in their place. The adjustable size means it can fit a variety of different drawers, even if you move to a new kitchen.

What we love about our spouses: almost everything. What we don’t love: when they put dirty spoons on the kitchen counter. This elegant marble spoon rest keeps cooking clean and sanitary and adds a pretty marble accent to your kitchen when not in use.

We have yet to meet someone who isn’t obsessed with making homemade pasta after using this pasta maker. With just flour and eggs, you can roll out fresh sheets of pasta for lasagna or ravioli or cut noodles like spaghetti and linguine with the included cutter. This Italian-made, hand-crank machine clamps to your table for stability and cleans up easily with a dry cloth.
