BOOS CUTTING BOARD“I love a really substantial, simple

wood cutting board, like one from

John Boos & Co. It’s the defini-

tion of useful and can live on your

countertop every single day. And

don’t forget: A cutting board is also a

serving platter!”

SNOWE HOME CHEF’S TOWELS“Proper chef towels are something no kitchen should be

without. Professional chefs never use pot holders—we use

our chef towels for safety, dexterity and convenience. The

Snowe kitchen towels are perfectly designed, simple,

washable, durable and the right size.”

RIEDEL VERITAS RIESLING / ZINFAN-DEL WINE GLASSES“For a quiet night at home or

for the newlyweds’ first dinner

party, a set of Riedel wine

glasses is de rigueur. Riedel has

been a part of my wine drinking

life since I was a student, drink-

ing black bottles of cava from

Spain out of its stemless line at

Target (the Vivant collection).

Now I stock my current apart-

ment with the beautiful Riedel

Veritas series.”

CAST-IRON SKILLET“A cast-iron skillet is my top

recommendation and perfect

for a registry. It’s affordable

and something you’ll use all

the time. It’s one of my

favorite kitchen products.”

H I S T O P R E G I S T RY P I C K

ALL- CLAD D5 STAINLESS STEEL COOK WARE“There are three All-Clad

products everyone needs in

their kitchen: the D5 stainless

steel 10-inch fry pan, four-quart

essential pan and four-quart

sauce pan. Simply put, they’re

versatile workhorses that will

last a lifetime.”

H E R T O P R E G I S T RY P I C K

CLASSIC BLOCK SET “I love a good set of American-

made knives for newlyweds.

I’m really keen on Warther

Cutlery and would recommend

the classic block set for a

good starter set of basic knives

for a couple’s new kitchen.

There are five knives in this set

and that’s enough to do it all.

They’re beautiful,

lightweight and

very useful.”

Chef and restaurateur of Red Rooster Harlem and

Streetbird Rotisserie

H I S T O P R E G I S T RY P I C K

RICE COOKER “I recommend a rice cooker

and an induction burner. A rice

cooker is key because rice is the

foundation of a good meal and

family, and the induction burner

is great for entertaining. You can

set it to the exact temperature

you need for frying, melting and

boiling. And can even use it as

an additional burner for your

stove for when you host your

first Thanksgiving dinner.”

James Beard Award–winning chef and owner of Blue Ginger

and Blue Dragon

H E R T O P R E G I S T RY P I C K

KITCHENAID STAND MIXER“I highly recommend a stand

mixer, preferably a KitchenAid.

Whether you bake now or not,

most people will in the future.

A stand mixer gives you so

much freedom. Besides baking,

additional attachments allow

you to make things like bread,

sausage and pasta.”

NESPRESSO VERTUOLINE“I love the everyday luxury

of Nespresso coffee, and the

fact that I can make it with

my eyes shut. Plus, it’s a

few minutes I get to share with

my husband. Stealing (and

soaking up) little moments

together is the secret to

relationship bliss.”

ALL- CLAD GOURMET SLOW COOKER“A great product for wedding

registries is a slow cooker.

You can make delicious

one-pot dishes that are easy and

save time in the kitchen, which

allows extra time with your

significant other. I really like

All-Clad’s all-in-one slow cooker

because it can also steam, brown

and sauté, and it looks nice with

its stainless steel finish.”
