A mandoline slicer is the best way to cut vegetables and fruits into thin, even slices. As a recipe developer, cookbook author, and avid home cook, I’ve used one for years. I reach for my mandoline anytime I want to make a shaved fennel salad, homemade coleslaw, or other dish that’s best with paper-thin slices of veggies. Consisting of a flat surface fitted with an adjustable blade, it helps me cut them quickly and consistently, no fancy knife skills required. I’d recommend a mandoline slicer to any cook (especially a vegetable lover!), with the caveat that you have to watch […]

Baking sheets are some of the most-used pans in my kitchen. I reach for them whenever I want to make roasted vegetables or bake chocolate chip cookies. I pull out a sheet pan when I’m whipping up a homemade pizza or cooking off crispy potato wedges. And when I want to make the easiest possible dinner, I grab a baking sheet to cook this tasty sheet pan gnocchi. Given all that baking sheets can do, I think that everyone should own a good one. I recently tested and reviewed the best baking sheets to help you choose the right one for […]

If you celebrate Christmas, you know the countdown unofficially begins sometime during that stretch between Halloween and Thanksgiving. The pumpkins and gourds find their way off of the mantle and front porch and are slowly replaced with small Christmas trees and garlands dusted with fake snow.
Part of the fun that comes with counting down to Christmas is having an advent calendar to surprise you with treats every day of December leading up to the 25th. Just decide the kind of surprise you'd like to have—do you want chocolates? Tea? Gummy candies?—and make sure you have it in your hands before the first of December. Then, each day, open the slot with the corresponding number to find what the calendar has in store. (It's like a pre-Christmas gift warmup, if you ask us!) And as we inch closer to the holiday, it's time to choose the calendar for you.
