The 25 must-have kitchen gadgets Ina Garten loves — what they are and where to buy them
In her cookbook Barefoot Contessa: How Easy is That? Ina Garten writes, "Like a good surgeon with the right scalpel, every good cook needs the right piece of equipment for each task." So, in an attempt to become the best at-home chefs we can be — and to tide us over until her memoir (finally) hits bookshelves on October 1st — we couldn't help but revisit interviews and Internet posts to glean insight from our favorite elegant yet accessible celebrity chef. From her favorite pepper mill and food processor to the Wusthof knives she adores, we've rounded up our cooking hero's must-have kitchen tools. Meanwhile, we'll be channeling our inner Barefoot Contessa while we (not so) patiently await October 1st.
