Ninja 4-Quart Air Fryer
To buy: $89.95 (was $129.99), amazon.com
This 4-quart Ninja is one of our favorite air fryers. We recommend this air fryer for small families or beginners. Its footprint is also ideal for those who don’t have much counter space. This model was tested against 17 others and received perfect performance scores. It was easy to clean and made perfect chicken wings and French fry.
Caraway Food Storage Container Set
Amazon.com
Add this 14-piece Caraway collection to your cart if you are looking for a multi-purpose storage solution and you also want something beautiful (no, it’s not an irony). These containers are coated in ceramic as you would expect since Caraway is known for its ceramic pans. We found that they hold a lot of food and are easy to clean. These containers also include countertop organizers to keep your kitchen organized.
Staub Dutch Oven
Amazon.com
Staub makes a high-quality Dutch oven, a kitchen essential that has stood the test of time. The 5.5-quart version is on the small side but the round shape and size are ideal for baking bread, as it allows the dough to expand and create a nice crust. This size is perfect for soups and stews or for meals for two.
Lodge Cast Iron Double Dutch Oven
Buy: $49.99, Amazon.com
Lodge’s Double Dutch Oven was also a great choice if you really want a Dutch Oven but it is just out of your price range. The cast iron classic is marked down during Prime Big Deal Days and its price is lower than the Staub (even when not on sale). It’s only downside is that you can’t use it as both a pot and a piece of decor in the kitchen, like Staub. The lid can be used as a skillet.
Shun the Classic Chef’s knife
Amazon.com To Buy:$79.95
A good chef’s blade is something that every kitchen should have. You can’t go far wrong with the Shun Classic. It is currently 30% off. The “Best Overall” award was given to this knife when we tested chefs knives. This is because it produced the cleanest cuts on butternut squash, sweet potatoes and other hard to slice vegetables. The handle was comfortable and easy to use. It was also easy to maneuver the knife around a chicken’s thigh. This is a good deal at $80.
Magic Mill Food Dehydrator Machine
Amazon.com
It’s worth buying a dehydrator if you are constantly searching the aisles of your local grocery store for dried fruit and beef jerky that is free from added sugars and additives. The Magic Mill version we tested performed well. It was quiet, easy to clean, and came with more fruit trays. The dehydrator comes fully assembled, so you can use it immediately.
All-Clad D3 3Ply Stainless steel Set
Buy:$770.37, Amazon.com
This 10-piece stainless steel cookware set is also nonstick. This set is a great alternative to nonstick pans, which can’t caramelize food as well as stainless steel. All-Clad rarely goes on sale so getting this set for over 30% off now is a great deal.
Set of Caraway Ceramic Cookware
Amazon.com
Caraway, yes! This 12-piece set is available for under $400 and offers the same performance as the All-Clad cookware. Caraway’s ceramic cookware set is our favourite: it looks just as good as performs. During our tests, the food was evenly cooked, it didn’t stick, and they held more food than any other set we tested.
Anova Sous-Vide Precision Cooker
Buy:$154, Amazon.com
It’s the perfect time to invest in a sous-vide cooker. You can streamline your holiday cooking by incorporating a sous vide cooker into your menu. The Anova Culinary, a midrange model, was the best performer in our tests. The Anova Culinary is simple to use and seamlessly connects to WiFi, so you can monitor your sous vide’s progress from anywhere in the house.
FoodSaver Vacuum Sealer
You should also consider investing in a vacuum sealer if you are considering a sous vide. This model comes with a handheld vacuum sealer and built-in storage. This FoodSaver 2-in-1 Automatic Sealing System is nearly identical to the model we tested and it was found to be a professional option. There’s no better time than now to buy a vacuum sealing machine, with 22% off. We’re willing to bet that you will use it more than you thought.
Calphalon Slow Cooker
Buy: 129.99 dollars (was 169.99 dollars), Amazon.com
The 5.3-quart slow cooker is stylish, easy to clean, and can be used as a stovetop insert. This was the best slow cooker in our 34-slow cooker test. You’ll be glad you bought this slow cooker when the weather gets cooler and you want to cook cozy meals.
