On my quest to make as little food decisions as I can (and I make a lot of them already), I’ve been eating my way through all the meal kit subscription boxes I can get my hands on. One thing that’s been immediately clear? While delicious, not all meal subscription kits are made equal.
We Tried Every Possible Method for Frying Eggs, and the Clear Winner Was a Total Curveball
We independently select these products—if you buy from one of our links, we may earn a commission. All prices were accurate at the time of publishing. Fried eggs are a quintessential breakfast classic. They’re just as comfortable on a fancy brunch menu as they are in a greasy spoon diner. And while it’s pretty easy to make at home, it’s also one of the more difficult things to get exactly right. That’s because you can fry an egg a number of ways, and people have strong preferences about how they’re prepared. Some people like their eggs over-medium, or with browned lacy edges; others prefer a more gentle cook.

This Extra Flavorful Glazed Meatloaf Will Ruin All Other Recipes for You (It’s Perfectly Moist!)
We independently select these products—if you buy from one of our links, we may earn a commission. All prices were accurate at the time of publishing. I moved from Korea to the United States when I was 13, and didn’t grow up eating classic meatloaf. My first time trying it was a bit disappointing. It was bland and slightly dry, and the overly sweet ketchup glaze didn’t do much for me. As I was staring at my plate of the unfinished slice, a wild thought hit me all of sudden: What if we make meatloaf Korean?
The Decadent Edible Cookie Dough I Could Eat Every Day
We independently select these products—if you buy from one of our links, we may earn a commission. All prices were accurate at the time of publishing. If you know me, you know I have a sweet tooth. I’d rather eat candy, ice cream, cookies, and sugared cereals instead of savory food any day, and I’m constantly keeping an eye out for the latest dessert trends in New York City. In fact, when the very first edible cookie dough shop opened in 2017, I was there. Practically every day. Sadly, that shop has since closed, and although many imitators have popped up around the city and in supermarkets, I haven’t really found any versions that were worth buying on repeat. Until I discovered Doughy Vegan Cookie Dough. While it doesn’t taste exactly like the cookie dough from that shuttered shop, it does taste delicious, and the fact that it’s made with just a handful of all-natural ingredients (never more than seven) is a huge bonus.
Tangerine Sorbet Is the 1-Ingredient Dessert of My Dreams
We independently select these products—if you buy from one of our links, we may earn a commission. All prices were accurate at the time of publishing. I’m not a huge dessert person. Because of this, there’s usually not a bunch of choices lying around my kitchen when that hankering for something sweet does hit. I’m just not the type of person who always has a pint of ice cream in the freezer.

6 Popular Types of Honey You Should Know

It’s a natural sweetener with an indefinite shelf life. In addition to its classic role in a strong cup of tea, honey is a great addition to marinades and glazes (like this honey garlic salmon) as well as baked goods like honey cake and honey spice cookies. Add some hot peppers and you’ve got hot honey; add it to butter and you’ve got the perfect spread for buttermilk biscuits. Its uses are near endless.
This $1 Dollar Tree Decor Find Brilliantly Doubles As a Spice Rack (It’s Perfect!)
We independently select these products—if you buy from one of our links, we may earn a commission. All prices were accurate at the time of publishing. If you have to maneuver around a small kitchen like me, then you understand how important it is to find clever ways to save space. Appliances can’t sit on the counter given the limited surface you have, and forget having a full spice rack on your counter as well unless you have a space on the wall or a large cabinet door you can work with. You’ll have to find another clever way to store those spices. Thankfully, @beauty_by_serina on Instagram thought of a clever DIY that will give you the spice cabinet of your dreams, without taking up any precious counter real estate in your home. And it’s all done with a few picture frames purchased from Dollar Tree at the low price of $1.25.

Le Creuset’s Stunning Provence-Inspired Collection Is on Major Sale (and Things Will Definitely Sell Out Fast!)
We independently select these products—if you buy from one of our links, we may earn a commission. All prices were accurate at the time of publishing. I don’t know about you, but I definitely have the spring shopping bug. Something about the seasonal transition is making me want to revamp my entire space, from my living room rug to the drinking glasses in my kitchen cabinets. If you feel the same, the best advice I have is to look out for sales. Although you wouldn’t typically think of April as a major sale month, you’d be surprised by what you could find right now for a good discount. Le Creuset, for example, is currently offering such good markdowns on its Olive Branch collection that many of the cookware and decor pieces have already sold out. But if you act fast, you could still snag a new cast-iron Dutch oven or saucier with the gorgeous design for way below its retail price. Although the colors are delightfully spring-y, they’ll look stunning in your kitchen year-round. Without further ado, these are the pieces that are on sale and still in stock — but probably not for long!
I Tried All-Clad’s New $60 Nonstick Fry Pan — And Now I Use It Every Day (It’s So Easy to Clean!)
We independently select these products—if you buy from one of our links, we may earn a commission. All prices were accurate at the time of publishing. In its over 50 years of existence, All-Clad has nearly perfected its cookware. This claim isn’t just mine — pretty much all of us editors here at The Kitchn are unanimous in our declaration that All-Clad is one of the best cookware brands. Why? Because the brand never disappoints. All-Clad consistently uses high-quality materials like stainless steel, aluminum, and copper, which distribute heat evenly, clean up nicely, and ultimately perform well over time. It’s the kind of cookware we believe is worth the investment — especially considering how many brands cut corners. (All-Clad does not.)
