Staub Dutch Oven
“I purchased one ten years ago and it still looks the same,” says Jenny. There’s a reason these French cocottes (also called Dutch ovens) are the gold standard for slow-roasting, outside of the fact that they last forever. They’re made from cast-iron, popular for its heat-retaining ability, and have specially designed spikes on the inside of the lid, which circulates moisture back onto the food.

Geometry Tea Towels
These tea towels will ruin every other dishcloth for you. There’s a lot to love here, but the biggie is their Geoweave ™ fabric, which has an ultra-soft, tight weave which creates an increased drying/cleaning surface area. This towel is magic, I swear, because it somehow absorbs 7x its weight in liquid, but it’s also quick drying, so it won’t sit around and get smelly.
