JetBoil Personal Cooking System

Cooking with All Things Trader Joe's
While we're far from monks, the Uncrate staff tends to believe that simplicity is the key to a happy life. Whether that simplicity comes from a gadget or something else is largely irrelevant, the importance is that it makes our life easier. In this case the ease comes from the Cooking with All Things Trader Joe's ($20) cookbook, an excellent collection of recipes that, as the title dictates, uses only items found at Trader Joe's....

Alessi Pasta Pot
It's rare that we cover a piece of cookware that introduces (or in this case, re-introduces) a different method of cooking. The Alessi Pasta Pot by Alain Ducasse and Patrick Jouin ($240) uses an ancient cooking method, developed by olive pickers, that allows the starches to be totally absorbed with the pasta instead of being discarded with the cooking water, and the same is true for the sauce. The result? New, interesting flavors delivered to... [More]

Le Creuset French Ovens
Most of the cooking gear we've covered here on Uncrate is made from stainless steel, but no stainless pan can stand up to slow cooking like a Le Creuset French Oven ($115-$350). Made from enameled cast iron, the ovens distribute heat more evenly than most regular pans, and tight fitting lids ensure the moisture and flavor stay inside. When your meal (they're great for cooking risotto) is ready, the same oven helps retain heat for... [More]

With features like a domed lid, a dishwasher-safe stoneware pan, and a cooking rack that can hold up to three racks of... [More]
Alton Brown Salt Cellar
Yes, fancy salt shakers are great — for the dinner table. When you're cooking, you need larger salt, and you need to have greater control of the amount you're using. To help your cooking with NaCl, we recommend the Alton Brown Salt Cellar ($17). It has an easy to use flip-top that lets you get to just the right amount of kosher salt for your recipe. [Thanks, Wes]... [More]
