Mini Chopper
The Cuisinart Core 3-Cup Mini Chopper just the right size.

Frother / Wand

Ceramic-coated Cookware
I use several nonstick pots and pans made by Caraway and GreenPan. Both are beautifully designed and toxin-free.

Baking Pans
13×18-inch (half -sheet) and 13×9-inch (quarter-sheet)

Bundt pan (or tube pan)

Rectangular cutting board with a slot
That slot works as a chute! Set the board over a bowl and slide chopped veggies straight in with your knife.

Aside from baking and cooling, this is my secret weapon for the no-peel mashed potatoes that put me on the map!
