Replace your bulky collection of grill tools with Proud Grill’s Magnetic Two-Piece BBQ Tool Set. This multi-use tool serves as extra-long grill tongs when connected, but apart, one piece serves as a spatula while the other serves as a grill fork. The unique design works thanks to an easy-to-operate magnet: It keeps the tools connected as tongs—perfect for serving and rotating—or disconnects easily to separate the long, flat spatula for flipping burgers and the sturdy grill fork for picking up grilled chicken. And because the set is magnetic, you can take them apart and configure them however you like, then attach them to your grill when you’re done for safekeeping. Dishwasher-safe, this set can handle anything from chicken and steak to cauliflower with ease, without all the clutter of typical grill tools.

Garlic Pros are estimated to ship this Fall

There are few foods more annoying to prepare than garlic. It’s a pain to peel, tricky to slice and grating can be as risky to your fingers as the garlic clove. And garlic presses are an utter nuisance to clean, much less extract all the flavor that give garlic its reputation as an aromatic powerhouse. Introducing the Milk Street Garlic Pro, a one-stop solution for easy garlic prep. The intuitive design functions like a mini mandoline but is much safer, thanks to the hopper that keeps your fingers safe and sound. Simply choose the cutting attachment for sliced, pressed or grated garlic; load the garlic cloves into the large, grippy hopper then press down and slide back and forth to effortlessly process the garlic. The odor-proof polycarbonate base holds over a whole head of prepared garlic, which can be transferred to the mixing bowl or skillet without ever having to touch it. The sturdy steel, silicone and polycarbonate construction is precisely built for long-term durability. The three snap-in blade attachments lock securely into the bottom of the lid, so you’ll never lose them in the bottom of your utility drawer.

With a rotary grater, a 360-degree spinning drum takes in ingredients and turns out perfect shreds over 10 times faster than manual box graters or microplanes—we like them for their efficiency, since they offer continuous grating power without having to change positions, the way you might on a box grater, for less hand fatigue and greater overall safety. We tested 13 rotary graters to find out which one would rise to the top, and this model from Gefu was a clear winner. Three interchangeable laser-cut drums slice, finely grate and coarsely grate vegetables, fruit, cheese, chocolate and nuts. The base is built extra high to allow even the tallest of vessels or bowls to fit comfortably under the rotary grater’s drum, and the base’s suction foot comes with a clamp that attaches to counters or tables for extra security, so the grater won’t rock or tumble during use. The Gefu comes with a pusher to safely insert ingredients into the drum, as well as a spatula. Plus it comes apart easily for clean up—toss everything but the base into the dishwasher.

Translating loosely to “grilling on an iron plate,” teppanyaki is a beloved Japanese style of cuisine that is hard to replicate at home. Relying on simple, fresh ingredients—like vegetables, meat, seafood and noodles—with minimal seasonings, cooking is dependent on a large, flat grill that heats to high temperatures. Thankfully, the expert artisans from Japan’s Tsubame-Sanjo, an area renowned for its superior metal craftsmanship, created an extra-thick iron pan to recreate teppanyaki cooking in your own kitchen. Naturally nonstick and able to heat up to very high temperatures, this beautiful plate with easy-to-grip handles comes equipped with a matching lid and a natural wooden trivet. For the most traditional cooking, begin your food on the stove before covering it and transferring the plate to the wooden serving trivet to finish cooking. Metal insets keep the wood from scorching, so you can bring food from the stove to the table with complete ease. The large model is big enough to serve three to four people and comes with two handles for easy carrying. The smaller model will serve one to two people and comes with a single handle.

See what your food is doing with our brand-new, tempered glass lid made just for the Everything Pan. Speed up boiling time, make a mini-smoker for meat or vegetables or braise without losing too much liquid while you’re at it. Steaming, poaching, braising, smoking, boiling and more has become that much easier.

Exclusive to Milk Street, this hard-to-find, Japanese-designed dressing bottle is the easiest way to make vinaigrette. Add all of the ingredients of your vinaigrette, shake to emulsify and you’re ready to go, but—even better—the bottle is perfectly sized to live in your refrigerator side door, so we love it for meal prep. Not only is the bottle conveniently sized, the lid is engineered for maximum convenience. If closed properly before shaking, the bottle can even be flipped upside down without spilling. And the lid comes with a drip-resistant spout to minimize mess. If you aren’t making vinaigrette, use the Cellarmate Dressing Bottle to store honey, vinegar, syrup, homemade simple syrup, seasonings, soy sauce, shrubs, BBQ sauce and even dry goods you want to pour, like grated cheese, salt, sugar or spices. Hand-wash between jobs.

Lightweight and incredibly durable, Genicook’s Measuring Cup Set is our key to accurately portioning out ingredients. Made from borosilicate glass, the same material as science beakers, these high temperature-resistant cups are less likely to crack, chip or scratch. And they’re naturally odor– and stain–resistant. Tall and equipped with sturdy handles, each cup stores away easily (unlike some wide-mouthed options on the market), while high walls keep ingredients contained—even when whisking or stirring. The V-shaped spouts on all three sides make for smoother, more comfortable pouring without any splatter, and the featherlight weight makes for easy pouring without any hand fatigue from heft. The set features 1-cup, 2-cup and 4-cup capacities or get the 4-cup (Large) by itself.

Our trick to seamless grilling? Grill baskets. Perfect for grilling delicate foods without damage from sticking or falling through the grate, we put ten grill baskets to the test to find the cream of the crop. Proud Grill’s UltraVersatile Grill Basket beat out the competition thanks to higher perforated walls and dividers, plus a removable, stay-cool handle. The durable yet lightweight stainless steel heats up quickly, and thanks to a large fire-facing surface area, food can spread out and grill instead of steam, which is the case with some other grill baskets. Plus, higher sides keep food in the basket when flipping—no fallen ingredients in sight.

Unlike most grill baskets, the Proud Grill has a detachable handle that remains cool throughout use, offering excellent maneuverability while remaining safe. And it can be attached to all four sides of the basket. Removable dividers are also an added bonus feature, allowing you to divide the basket into up to five sections to grill more than one item at once. Compatible when placed both vertically or horizontally on most grills, even smokers, use it for vegetables, fish, shrimp, wings or any other ingredient that might fall through the grates on a standard grill.

Forget wasteful single-use parchment paper—King Arthur’s set of two reusable Loaf Pan Lifters is here to make picking up freshly baked goods much easier (and way more sustainable). Made from heat-resistant silicone, this nonstick lifter effortlessly releases baked goods. Simply place the lifter in the base of your loaf pan—we suggest one with straight edges, rather than round—grease lightly for extra insurance then pour your batter or dough on top. It’ll save time on a busy baking day—no measuring and cutting parchment paper or aluminum foil to use as a sling. Even better, the lifter’s easy-to-grab tabs on all sides will keep you from getting burned while working. Each reusable lifter can go into the dishwasher for effortless clean up; it’s oven-safe up to 500 degrees Fahrenheit and can also go into the microwave or freezer.

In a test of 13 rotary graters, this handheld model from Gefu outperformed the rest with its tabletop counterpart. Gefu’s handheld model is a Red Dot Design Award Winner, and for good reason; the two interchangeable grater drums offer fine and coarse grating for cheese, nuts or chocolate. The grater is comfortable to hold and smooth to operate, and for soft cheese in particular, our testers noted the prettiest shred. Choose between grating into a closable hopper for later or à la minute over a finished dish. Either way, the handheld model goes easily from counter to table. And it comes apart for easy cleaning; just toss it into the dishwasher.

The Milk Street Small Everyday Pan with Trivet will ship this Fall

Virtually indestructible, adaptable across a range of cooking methods and plenty nonstick when properly seasoned, it’s hard to beat cast-iron cookware. But most cast-iron pans are huge—and that’s not always necessary when cooking for yourself or making smaller side dishes.

It’s why we shrunk down our bestselling, full-sized Everything Pan into the compact, 7.5-inch-wide Everyday Pan. It has the same hybridized shape as the original, which combines the best of a skillet and a saucier: Shorter, sloped sides maximize surface area for cooking, while rounded edges aid in whisking and stirring, all complete with the same cast-iron construction and durable pre-seasoning.

The smaller size fills an equipment hole that we’ve found most kitchens have: A high-performance pan that’s perfect for true everyday, individual use. We love it for eggs of any style in the morning, an afternoon grilled cheese or a strip steak for dinner. It toasts nuts and spices expertly and excels as a personal pan, great for mini frittatas or pan pizzas. It's also ideal for single-size mac and cheese or baked pastas, like ziti. Or, when entertaining a crowd, cook and serve your sides in a couple Everyday Pans.

After casting, the Everyday Pan is tumbled smooth—a final polishing step that most modern cast-iron producers skip—which makes all the difference between the sleek, satin finish of a well-seasoned vintage pan and the rough, pebbled surface of most new pans. It’s then treated with a durable, all-natural vegetable oil seasoning, making it slippery-smooth right out of the box.

Our Everyday Pan also comes with an exclusive, magnetized wood trivet that’s custom fit to the base. Just snap it in place and take the pan straight from the stove to the table.

Forget wasteful single-use parchment paper—King Arthur’s reusable Round Loaf Lifter is here to make picking up your freshly baked boule out of a piping hot Dutch Oven much easier (and way more sustainable). Made from heat-resistant silicone, this nonstick lifter effortlessly releases baked goods. Simply place the lifter in the base of your Dutch oven, grease lightly for extra insurance then place your dough on top before its second rise. It’ll save time on a busy baking day—no measuring and cutting parchment paper or aluminum foil. Even better, the lifter’s easy-to-grab tabs on all sides will keep you from getting burned while working. Each reusable lifter can go into the dishwasher for effortless clean up; it’s oven-safe up to 500 degrees Fahrenheit and can also go into the microwave or freezer.

This freestanding mandoline slicer by the French cookware experts at de Buyer beat out all other models in testing for its superior slicing and safe, durable design. Constructed from solid stainless steel with non-slip feet to keep everything in place, this raised tool features multiple removable blades with options for julienne, waffle, slice and crinkle cuts. The ergonomic pusher and included finger guard add an extra level of safety while slicing. Ideal for cutting, shredding, dicing, cubing and so much more, use it for precise prep with vegetables and fruit of any kind, then simply fold the stand down for easy storage. You’ll especially love it for french fries.

Made from local oak wood by product designer René Otto in a joinery in Schwerte, Germany, this lovely, grooved pasta board is our secret to creating traditional pasta shapes by hand. Exclusive to Milk Street in the U.S., we tested this limited stock tool to make a variety of pastas, from simple ridged gnocchi, cavatelli and malloreddus to more rustic shapes with designs like capunti, strascinati and corzetti. And thanks to a steel rod that magnetically attaches to the back of the board, you can also roll out dough and make an array of other tubed shapes like garganelli. It’s the perfect addition to the pasta lover’s kitchen.

Though the region is best known for wine production, the Loire Valley of France also once contained a secret gem frozen in time: Poterie Renault. Dating back to 1847, the French pottery workshop was filled to the brim with stoneware pieces, all handcrafted from some of the richest and finest clay France has to offer. And while the factory shuttered its doors in 2016, it left behind a treasure trove of salt-glazed ceramics that have become collectible items. Included in that collection—reminiscent of charming French country kitchens are these small dishes. Use them as molds for baked or set desserts like flan or panna cotta, ramekins for crème brûlée or bowls to serve individual portions of soup, salad or snacks.

Adorable and equally handy, Marna’s Ceramic Toast Steamer is our secret to the perfect piece of toast. Simply soak the ceramic steamer in water for 20 seconds, then add to your toaster along with your bread. The steam from the device will release in your toaster to prevent your bread from drying all the way out. It yields excellent toast that is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.
