Milk Street Precision Peeler
Please allow 3-4 business days for this items to ship.
Most peelers do a lousy job. The blades are made of inferior steel so they do not peel easily and the peel itself is often too thick. The blades dull over time so you have to throw it out. Many designs have uncomfortable handles or the handles are awkward since they are not aligned properly with the blade. And when it comes to thick, tough skins such as butternut squash, you might as well give up before you start. That is why we just redesigned the peeler, using top-grade 420 stainless steel for the replaceable blade (why don’t all peelers have replaceable blades?) and a handle that is big enough for a firm, easy grip. Try it just once and you will find that it peels like cutting through butter. It’s that good!
Offset Bakery Spatula
Offset spatulas are known for their ability to easily slide under baked goods without crumbling them, but this one works even better since it has a unique beveled tip. The slight upturn allows you to use the spatula tip almost like a lever, prying up stuck-on cookies and the like with ease. And despite being made from sturdy stainless steel, the spatula blade is still quite flexible and won’t mangle even the most delicate treats like lacey-edged cookies and meringues. Measurements along the side of the spatula ensure accuracy as you bake—whether you’re seeking to made even widths of dough lattice for a pie or consistently sized cuts of cake or brownie. Thanks to the ergonomically-shaped handle, this spatula is a joy to use. You won’t strain your hand if you’re frosting cupcakes en masse or slicing and scooping out multiple brownie trays. Plus, the angle at which the handle is set is positioned just right for you to keep your fingers out of the frosting.
Milk Street Shallot Confit
Tired of trying to mince slippery shallots, or cook them to an even golden brown without the risk of burning? Slow cooking takes time and supervision, which is something few of us have the time for on busy weeknights.
Milk Street Premium Essentials Shallot Confit is a rich-tasting blend of minced shallots, olive oil and ghee simmered slow and low to a deep, savory flavor and jammy texture. White wine, bay leaf and a touch of spice add dimension to boost any cuisine. It’s designed to be all-purpose enough to replace cooked shallots in virtually any recipe. Try in soups, stews, sauces and sauces. Fold into grains or beans, spread inside grilled cheese and paninis, top burgers or dollop on to pizza. It saves valuable time and effort, getting a flavorful dinner on the table faster.
Marna Silicone Piggy Steamer Lid
Designed for steaming food, the Marna Piggy Steamer from Japan is a silicone lid that forms a tight seal over pots and containers, vents excess steam through its snout and is easy to lift by its ear-shaped handles. Use it for perfect stovetop steaming, splatter-free microwave cooking or even refrigerator storage in place of plastic wrap. It's more compact and flexible than metal pot lids and fits any vessel less than 8.5 inches in diameter, with the silicone locking in moisture for effective steaming; smartly designed holes in the pig snout act as vents to avoid built-up pressure. When you're done using it, you can throw the lid in a kitchen drawer for storage without worrying about finding a spot on the shelf.
Milk Street Kitchin-kiji
The Kitchin-Kiji is expected to ship by January 30.
The one kind of knife missing from most Western kitchens is one of the most used in Japan—a midsized, multipurpose utility knife bigger and stronger than a paring knife but smaller and more manageable than a chef’s knife. Why Western cooks typically don’t have such a knife is beyond us, so we took months to design our own. The result is the Kitchin-kiji—the ultimate all-purpose utility knife that will speed up your prep. It’s perfect for all the “in-between” jobs, small enough for detailed handwork like slicing garlic and shallots, trimming mushrooms or cutting fruit. Plus, we designed it with a broad blade to be large enough that it won’t twist, and the larger handle fills the hand for a confident grip.
