The 16 Finest Kitchen Purchases We Made in 2025

“In the event you instructed me just a few months in the past that I’d fall in love with a set of pasta bowls, I’d scoff and say, ‘What even is a pasta bowl?’ However now that I’ve used them, I 100% perceive their deserves: They’re shallow and maintain your noodles saucy, whether or not it’s a tangle of tagliatelli, a scoop of scungilli, or a swirl of soba. In addition they double as the proper vessel for holding runny dishes, like a stew or curry. Good ones, like this set from Le Creuset, have laborious, sturdy enamel, so you’ll be able to sort out your noodles with a fork with out concern of scratching. And this set is beneath $80—a unbelievable deal for Le Creuset.”—Grace
