A Vibrant And Versatile Piece Of Enameled Cast Iron

Staub makes some of the best enameled cast iron products you can buy, and this versatile braiser deserves a spot in every home kitchen. With a wide base and high-sloped sides, this pan lets you braise, roast, fry, simmer or sear without the splatter of shallower skillets. The tight-fitting lid locks in moisture so it can return to your food instead of escaping in the form of steam, and the glass top means you can see through and check on your progress without needing to remove it. We love that this gorgeous piece of heritage cookware comes in six fun colors so you can match or accentuate any décor style.

A Shiny And Sleek Dutch Oven To Brighten Up Any Holiday Table

High-quality cookware can be passed down for generations, and this is one of those specialty items that will instantly become a central part of your family’s traditions. The gorgeous piece features a 100% copper core that’s bonded with a 100% stainless steel interior, which allows for quick and thorough heat conduction and even temperature control. That means it heats up quickly and retains heat longer, whether food is cooking in the center of the pot or the outer corners. This Dutch oven is induction compatible, and oven and broiler safe up to 600 degrees Fahrenheit.

A Durable Cutting Board Made Of Premium-Quality Wood

Regardless of the cook’s level of expertise, everyone needs a high-quality cutting board. We love Quince’s line of cookware because it’s all made from premium materials (in this case, 100% walnut wood sourced from South America) and it comes at a fraction of the cost offered by other brand-name retailers. This End Grain Butcher Block is strong and sturdy, so it’s designed for daily chopping, slicing and serving alike.

Non-Toxic And Nonstick Cookware In Unique Shapes And Sizes

This recently launched collection from editor-loved brand Caraway—which is loaded with four essential pieces in new shapes and sizes—will give any kitchen a modern revamp. Available in six of Caraway’s classic colors and two specialty colors, the set includes a rondeau, stockpot, fry pan and small cooker pot. Each piece is made from nonstick and non-toxic materials that are easy to clean and care for.

Outdoor Cookware That’s Efficient And Easy-To-Clean

This sturdy grill basket from Le Creuset is ideal for outdoor-cooking season. Perfect for giving vegetables or whole fish a delicious char-grilled flavor, the pan is made from enameled black cast iron for optimal heat conduction and retention. Cleaning is much easier than prepping an entire grill, too: Though hand-washing is recommended, this item is dishwasher safe for extra-messy messes.

A Classic Resource For Home Cooks Of All Levels

It’s no surprise Julia Child called this book “a fundamental resource for any American cook.” It’s packed with lessons that will benefit both new and seasoned cooks alike.

The Joy Of Cooking is an incredible reference for every kitchen, making it an ideal gift.

Elegant And Comforting Meals From The Barefoot Contessa Herself

Ina Garten is the queen of elevating the everyday, and her recipes in Go-To Dinners are perfect for turning regular mealtimes into “treat-yourself” moments. Readers will find 85 recipes that are manageable to make midweek but special enough to impress guests: Take Overnight Mac And Cheese, Rosemary Roasted Pork Tenderloins and Chicken In A Pot With Orzo for a few.

Fun And Ambitious Cooking Projects To Bond Over

Sleek And Elegant Glasses For A Bold Latte At Home

These gorgeous, extra-tall glasses help show off each layer of carefully crafted espresso drinks.

They’re microwave and freezer safe too.

A Slim And Stylish Professional-Grade Espresso Maker

This sleek and streamlined machine makes professional-quality coffee at home while occupying minimal countertop space.

Available in 11 colors, this is a fantastic gift for any coffee lover who wants to wake up to barista-worthy lattes and cappuccinos.

An Beautifully Designed Mug To Take Anywhere

A chic and sustainable travel mug is thoughtful and versatile for so many occasions. This option from W&P is made from ceramic, so it doesn’t have that metallic taste that some other travel coffee mugs do; it’s also got a splash-resistant lid, and an easily grippable silicone sleeve that helps prevent scratches, too. Available in two sizes and nine colors, it’s a fantastic gift to suit an aesthetically minded mom.

Full-Flavored Drip Coffee From A Streamlined Machine

This drip coffee maker from Zwilling is a powerhouse that looks great while it works. The machine automatically blooms coffee grounds before brewing to maximize flavors and make for the most robust cup yet.

Barista-Quality Cold Brew From The Comfort Of Your Kitchen

Cold-brew lovers know how daily trips to the coffee shop can add up throughout the week. This nitro cold brew maker makes it simple to whip up frothy cold brew at home, and even comes with a built-in tap to dispense it like at a café. Simply fill the included bag with coffee grounds, add cold, filtered water and refrigerate overnight. In the morning, just charge and shake the machine, then pour.

For moms who love to bake, this porcelain slab is the perfect vessel for baking and serving up large-format slab pies, sweet or savory tarts and loaves of focaccia. Made from enameled French porcelain, the pan is naturally nonstick and thermal shock resistant, so it can be transferred directly from the freezer to the oven without causing any cracking.
