Get Cooking With 12 Kitchen Finds On Oprah’s Favorite Things
Gift ideas for everyone on your list, from those who delight in making classic beef bourguignon to those who prefer beautifully plating delivery pizza.
Shopping for home cooks, no matter their skill level, can be fun, because you know exactly what they like to do. And home chefs appreciate kitchen gifts, because there is always something that needs an upgrade (stiff spatulas, bent whisks, unraveling pot holders), something that could be done better by a new gizmo, or something that will help the expert-in-training improve their technique. There’s no last-minute panicking when buying for these folks.
But it never hurts to make the holidays a little more efficient. That’s why we pulled together this list of kitchen gifts from the Oprah’s Favorite Things list that make life easier, more successful, and even more fun for loved ones whose favorite place is the kitchen. Is their toaster oven down to only two working settings—barely warmed or blackened? We’ve got the best countertop replacement that not only delivers perfectly turned-out toast but also cooks in just about every other way you can think of. We’ve also got a small gift for the chef who has (almost) everything.
Picks like these telegraph to the recipient that you thought about how they like to spend their time and what makes them happy. Best of all, not only will they appeal to foodie friends and busy home cooks—they’ll appeal to your budget, because we’ve got ideas from this year's Favorite Things list at a whole cupboard’s worth of price points, from special splurge to wallet-friendly.
