4) Lodge Cast Iron Skillet
Lodge Manufacturing Pots/Pans

Yes, I said eggs—I defy your nonstick to do better." —Lauren Hubbard, Contributor

14) Fry Pan
Caraway Home

$95.00

I have been using this fry pan and have been loving it because it's not only easy to cook in (thanks to its non-stick surface), but it's also a breeze to clean. I can't stand doing the dishes afterward, but one swoop of the sponge keeps this bad boy spotless. Now, I want the saucepan next." —Sophie Dweck, Associate Shopping Editor

It's definitely on the big side, so you better make some room on your countertops! I got mine with an accompanying food processor attachment, which is a game changer in the chopping and grating department. Next up on the menu: latkes... because there's never a wrong time to eat crispy fried potato pancakes, right?" —Sophie Dweck, Associate Shopping Editor

18) Glass Food Storage Set
Caraway
$245.00
"The first thing to go when I decided to move was my old food storage system. Out with the old, in with the Caraway Glass Food Storage Set. And oh how I love it. Shall I list the ways? Well first of all, the ceramic coated glass is sturdy, and they really do keep the food fresh and odors out with their air release tech. But most of all, I love how easily they are organized."—Roxanne Adamiyatt, Deputy Digital Lifestyle Editor

Years ago I got a set of the Material Kitchen knives and I remain obsessed with them, so why not add just about the most aesthetically pleasing and highly rated shears to go with them? I've also heard wonderful things about the forever peeler, so that is also in my cart."—Roxanne Adamiyatt, Deputy Digital Lifestyle Editor
