IKEA’s Handmade is Best Cookbook.

I try not to repost what 845 blogs have already put out there, so consider this one on IKEA’s new 30 page cookbook for my benefit only. Photographed by Carl Kleiner and styled by Evelina Bratell, the recipes are artfully arranged overhead shots of the required ingredients painstakingly arranged just so. Sadly it’s not yet available in the US, but rumor has it that it will be available for free in limited quantities in the kitchen department once released. Plotting out ways to snag one as I type.

Stackable Oven-to-Table Cookware.

Every serious cook would love to have a double oven, but in this day and age multifunctionality and storage space mean a lot. That’s why most of us love a good oven-to-table piece of cookware. And with the holidays looming these pieces by designer Christian Bjørn are spot on. Three stackable sizes allow for countless configurations in the oven or on the table. The scalloped cut-outs allow air to circulate while in the oven, ensuring food is evenly heated, heat-resistant silicone feet protect surfaces, and you can keep dinner warm by placing tea lights in a base dish beneath a serving dish.
