Some people say mise en place is the most important part of cooking. We’re not arguing.

We burned through a ridiculous number of tools to land on this list: gastronorms, scrapers, mixing bowls and a few more to help your creativity go wild.

The little tools that make food look as good as it tastes. Tweezers, spoons and spatulas for cooks who enjoy the plating part too.

A small, very biased stack of books from chefs and restaurants we obsess over.
Steal ideas, twist recipes and let them mess with your creativity in a good way.

Curated kits for when you want to obsess over a specific recipe or idea.
From homemade pasta to the perfect first drawer, browse around and check back often – we update these kits regularly.

For that friend you call when you want to cook for a “person of interest” – or when you want to trick them into cooking for you without asking.
Cooking tools for your cooking-obsessed people, the kind of gift they’ll genuinely appreciate (and actually use).
