Shop now! No images? Click here The Most Popular Kitchen Equipment We RecommendAll year long, our culinary team rigorously tests tools and equipment to help you cook better. To that end, we have a lot of recommendations for every kitchen size and budget. Of course, there's another side to this, and that's you. Knowing what you add to your cart informs us about what you're into (better baking pans!) and not into (slow cookers). So this time of year, we like to take a look back and see the equipment that you felt was worthy of a spot in your kitchen. Here you'll find the most popular Serious Eats–recommended tools, the ones our readers shop for again and again in 2019. Already got 'em? Let us know what you think! And don't forget: They make pretty good holiday gifts, too. The winners! This eight- by three-inch anodized aluminum pan from Fat Daddio's is Stella's go-to cake pan. It's yours, too. There are a lot of reasons for keeping an instant-read thermometer in the kitchen. When it comes to speed and precision, the Thermapen trumps all others. This year Sho wrote a story about everything you can do with a wok. That paired with Kenji's guide to buying and seasoning a wok resulted in a tidal wave of orders. Poultry shear popularity explodes over the holiday season. That's likely because you all have realized that spatchcocking your holiday turkey is the absolute best way to achieve a juicy bird. While we have a few recs for the best skewers, our top-pick for longevity is the flat skewers by Norpro. These guys are easy to maneuver and the flat surface will keep your food from sliding around. This thin, flexible spatula is ideal for getting under and flipping delicate ingredients like fish or pancakes. It can also easily handle flipping a half-pound burger, too.
