This is the kind of pot you’ll use for years.” – Gen La Rocca, Chef and Owner, Two Cloves Kitchen

Chef’n FreshForce Lime Juicer

“There are very few single-use tools that I recommend home cooks purchase; you don’t need a lot of specialized equipment to make great food. But the one unitasker I can’t live without is a great lime squeezer. I’ve had many, and this is the one that has lasted the longest and consistently yields the most juice. It’s as simple as that. The plastic handle doesn’t corrode from the acid in the citrus and the powerful gear mechanism makes crushing limes easy and efficient.” – Rick Bayless, Chef and Restaurateur, Chicago

Victorinox Wood Chef’s Knife

“One of my favorite gifts to give is something I actually received myself years ago. When I was young and starting to get into cooking, my parents gifted me a Victorinox knife case. The wood chef’s knife has been my go-to knife ever since, and [it was] one of the very few things that came with me to America when I moved. It’s razor-sharp out of the box and needs minimal maintenance. It’s so sharp I actually use it at work and at home.” – Daniel Humm, Chef and Founder, Eleven Madison Park, New York City

Our Place Perfect Power Pot

“This versatile electric [pot] is perfect for taking anywhere, whether it’s for a camping trip, picnic, or travel. As someone who grew up in Thailand and loves to steam dumplings and make hotpot, this compact and multifunctional piece has become my top wish list item for the holiday season.” – Gan Suebsarakham, Co-Founder and Executive Chef, The Sweet and Savory Collective

Victoria Cast Iron Comal, 10.5-Inch

“What I don’t have at home and what I love is a comal. It’s so easy to put on top of the stove and it stays hot for hours. It’s the Mexican version of donabe.” – Yvan Mucharraz, Culinary Experiences Director, Auberge Chileno Bay Resort, Cabo San Lucas, Mexico

Tumbler Rolling Knife Sharpener

“As a professional chef, a sharp knife is the cornerstone of my tools and utensils. I have had the opportunity to use this product at a family member’s house, and I was blown away by the results. The product is well worth the price tag and completely removes the guesswork out of sharpening any chef’s knife, even for the inexperienced or timid.” – Brandon Cunningham, Executive Chef, The Social Haus at the green o, Greenough, Montana

Benriner Japanese Vegetable Slicer

“This mandoline slicer is a sharp and efficient tool, making it a dependable companion in any kitchen. A fantastic alternative to a knife, it’s a must-have for chefs and home cooks alike. Whether you’re slicing potatoes for crispy chips or grating vegetables for a fresh salad, this mandoline ensures precision and consistency with every cut. It’s also an effortless way to elevate your culinary presentation — impress your guests with evenly sliced garnishes that add a professional touch to any dish.” – Wes Avila, Executive Chef, MXO Steakhouse, Los Angeles

ThermoWorks ThermoPop 2 Instant Read Thermometer

“This [tool] is critical to take your baking to the next level because managing dough temperature is often overlooked as the key component to making excellent bread dough. ThermoWorks also makes the more expensive Thermapen that’s loved by chefs — this less expensive model does all the same things, making it a great entry food thermometer. I have multiple in different colors.” – Zach Martinucci, Owner, Rebel Bread, Denver

Ninja Creami Ice Cream Maker

“Cyber Monday is the perfect time to make larger kitchen purchases, which I’ve been waiting for all year! First on my list is the Ninja Creami Ice Cream Maker. I refuse to spend another year without it! Compared to the professional chef’s Paco Jet, the Creami is hundreds of dollars less. Instead of spending $15 on a smoothie bowl after my gym workouts, I’ll be making healthy bowls at home, saving me at least a few hundred dollars a month! I also plan to pick up extra containers while I’m shopping.” – Gigi Gaggero, former Academic Director, Le Cordon Bleu

Anova Precision Chamber Vacuum Sealer

“With food prices on the rise, it’s time for my family to invest in a couple more items that I’ve been eagerly anticipating. My dream is coming true with the Anova Tabletop Vacuum Chamber Sealer, which will allow me to safely store liquids and solids in my deep freezer without worrying about ice crystals [that cause] freezer burn and wasting my hard-earned grocery budget.” – Gaggero
