While fresh-milled flour is NOT necessary to make amazing breads and baked goods, it sure is a nice bonus. I write all about how to use a grain mill right here. If you’ve been thinking about grinding your own flour, I can’t recommend this mill enough. I’ve been using it for years and love it.
This is my favorite bowl in my kitchen. You can choose other sizes here, but I think my 12″ is perfect for most of what I want to use it for.
I can’t justify buying it, at that high price tag, when I can bottle kombucha at home. This is the crock I use for my first ferment.
I adore my cast iron cookware. In fact, I could never pick just one to recommend. Here I link to your choice of 6 sizes of skillets, but honestly there’s so much more to love.
From applesauce to pearsauce and so much more, this food mill makes your preserving jobs much easier.
I’ve tried a variety of blenders, but Blendtec is my top choice for ease of use and a lower profile. It’s a workhorse that I use nearly every day.
I didn’t jump on the instant pot bandwagon for quite a while. I figured it was just another one of those gimmicky appliances. When I did finally order one, I di so very sheepishly. I was hooked after my first use. And I’ve used it non-stop ever since.
This classic, time-tested appliance has never done me wrong. It’s hands-down my favorite mixer I’ve ever had in my kitchen.
Once you put in your yummy ingredients, this machine does it all, making amazing ice cream, frozen yogurt, or sorbet. I keep the 2-quart freezer bowl in my freezer all the time, cold and ready. Cause you never know when you might be in desperate need of all-natural creamy ice cream asap. It comes with an intense recipe book that would probably cover most of your cravings, but for the record this is my favorite.
This baby is a workhorse. I’m really picky with my kitchen gadgets and only keep the necessities; my pasta machine belongs in that category and has earned its place in my crowded cupboards. If you want to treat your family to fresh-made pasta often, this is a must-have.
Ever since Mr. Mason patented his first jar, the world’s storage options have never been the same. But today’s accessories… dare I say it? They’re jarringly amazing.
