PANTRY INGREDIENTS
Le Saunier De Camargue Fleur De Sel– Meet my favorite salt. I simply adore the texture and flavor of this finishing salt. It is light and crunchy and perfect for sprinkling over top sliced tomatoes, salads, pasta, roasted veggies—literally everything.
Fine Sea Salt– Made in Utah, this is a great fine sea salt that is perfect for baking or mixing into recipes.
Maldon Salt– This is my favorite flaky salt on the market. It has an addictively crunchy texture, great for finishing.
Smoked Sea Salt– This smoked salt has an intense flavor that offers a great background flavor to recipes.
Black Peppercorns– These organic peppercorns are robust in flavor and offer that perfect kick to recipes.
Pepper Mill– This is the pepper mill I use in my very own kitchen. I love it so!
Nutritional Yeast– No kitchen pantry is complete without this magical umami-rich seasoning. An absolute must, in my opinion! I prefer the flakes over the powder.
Red Pepper Flakes– Go-to ingredient for adding some heat to dishes. I use it daily.
Garlic Powder– Oof, this garlic powder has a chokehold on me. It has the BEST flavor.
Rice Vinegar– Love, love, love this mild and delicious rice vinegar.
Olive Oil– This olive oil from Trader Joe’s is great and I love that the bottle has a pour spout.
Smoked Olive Oil– This is one of my favorite condiments to drizzle on avocado toast, roasted veggies, or any kind of grain/pasta dish. It has a delicate smoky, buttery flavor.
Truffle Oil– I love this brand of white truffle oil (white is more fragrant and rich in flavor than black.) Drizzle it on popcorn, pasta, rice, or avocado toast. I also love this brand as well.
Kala Namak– I love buying this brand because it comes in one large bag that lasts forever. Do note, I transfer the salt to a tightly sealed jar once it is delivered to keep moisture out.
Ume Plum Vinegar– from Eden Foods. This is the only brand I buy.
Kombu– from Eden Foods. There are many different brands. This is the one I use.
Vegan Worcestershire– Wizard is the best! You can tell by reading the ingredient list. This is the most similar to traditional Worcestershire in regards to taste that I have ever had. If you can’t find that you can use Annie’s or the 365 Whole Foods brand (they are both vegan).
Liquid Smoke– alert! alert! Some brands of liquid smoke can be super bitter. I find that Colgin is not and is absolutely delicious. It adds a lovely depth of flavor to recipes.
Carolina Gold Rice– This is a traditional prized South Carolina rice. It’s delicious.
Louisiana Popcorn Rice– This rice is EVERYTHING. I’ve seen some other brands out there but this is by far my favorite. The bag itself smells like buttery popcorn.
Tamari– This is my favorite brand of tamari. It is rich in savory flavor and absolutely delicious!
Garlic Powder and Onion Powder are amazing to use in recipes for added depth of flavor.
Miso– Check out Miso Master’s mellow white miso. I also highly recommend their chickpea miso, especially if you are trying to avoid soy. Another company I love is South River Miso.
VEGAN PRODUCTS
Cocojune Coconut Yogurt– This yogurt has a thick, creamy, and melt-in-your-mouth texture that I adore. It works amazingly in savory applications.
Oatly Full Fat Milk– I recommend this oat milk because it is plain in flavor and rich and creamy in texture.
Chobani Extra Creamy Oat Milk– Another plant-based milk that I recommend to use for cooking.
Fabalish Classic Mayonnaise– This is my favorite vegan mayo on the market. The ingredients are excellent and the flavor and texture is awesome. In second place, I would vote for Just Mayo and, in third, Vegenaise.
Miyoko’s Cultured Butter– I usually refer to this as plant butter in my recipes. This brand in particular is delicious and widely accessible. It has a lovely depth of flavor.
Monty’s Cultured Butter– This is another cultured plant butter that has a fantastic texture and flavor.
Monty’s Cream Cheese– This is hands down the best vegan cream cheese on the market. It is rich, creamy, and made with simple ingredients. I’m obsessed!
Follow Your Heart Cheese– my favorite cheese from this company are the slices: smoked gouda, provolone, and American. They all work beautifully on sandwiches or for sauces, if melted correctly.
Violife Cheese– This has quickly become my favorite vegan cheese on the market. From their slices to their parmesan, the texture is spot on and the flavor is very similar to traditional dairy cheese. I particularly love the aged cheddar, smoked provolone, and their Mexican shreds.
Field Roast Sausage– I love this grain meat company, in particular the ‘Italian style’ sausages or the ‘celebration roast’. Because their meat products are made with seitan, they are rich in protein and have a great, meaty texture.
Beyond Meat– This brand offers many different products and I particularly love their Italian meatballs, breakfast sausage patties (not the links), and their Hot Italian Sausage. The burger patties are also quite nice, especially when dining out.
High Protein Extra Firm Tofu– I love all tofu but my favorite variety is this one. It has a dense and meaty texture that is very satisfying. You also do not need to press it.
Daring chicken works beautifully as an easy swap for those classic recipes we know and love. They offer a grilled style and a breaded style. See them in action with this salad.
Soy Curls– I love soy curls! They are sold dried and can last on a shelf for a good amount of time (although, I recommend keeping them in the fridge or freezer so that they last longer). Once rehydrated, seasoned, and pan-fried, they are outrageously good. Learn how to cook them here.
KITCHEN EQUIPMENT
Challenger Bread Pan– This is what I use to make my sourdough loaves. The design makes it so much easier to place the loaf in the pan and the lid on top. Cannot recommend enough.
Cast Iron Skillet– I love me a cast iron skillet, especially this one because it’s so big. I roast anything and everything in this guy! I also bake my sourdough focaccia in this.
Hand-held Julienne Vegetable Peeler– This tool is ideal for safely and effectively slicing a vegetable into a beautiful, thin matchstick shape.
Mandoline– This contraption allows you to slice vegetables paper thin. Please be careful using this, as it is very dangerous!
Enso Chef’s Knife– This is one of my go-tos. It’s made well and it chops effortlessly. Highly recommend!
Thin Blade Spatula– This is one of my favorite kitchen tools when cooking with a cast iron skillet. The thin blade allows one to get under something that might normally stick and also scrape up any remnants that are sticking from a sauce, fried rice, etc.
Roux Spoon– There are many different roux spoons out there. This is a good example of one. Ideally, you want the handle to be long and the spoon end to be wide and curved.
Microplane Zester– This is a great tool to have for zesting citrus, ginger, nutmeg, or any block of hard vegan cheese.
Vitamix Blender– I’ve had mine for 10 years and it still works perfectly. Ideal for making your own juices or blending sauces until velvety smooth.
14-Cup Food Processor– I love mine and use it often. It’s a bit expensive but I think worth it in the end for the high quality.
SEEDS
Benary Zinnia Seeds– large and beautiful zinnias, great for cutting.
Cut & Come Again Zinnia Seeds– smaller zinnias in a variety of fun colors.
Botanical Interests– I adore this company and their beautifully illustrated seeds packets.
CAMERA EQUIPMENT
Canon 5D Mark – This is the camera body that I use. It’s fabulous and I love the touch screen.
Canon EF 50mm f/1.2 L USM Lens (Fixed)– This is my favorite lens. I use it 90% of the time!
Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L II USM– Standard Zoom Lens – this is great for all situations! Far away or close.
Canon RF100mm F2.8 L Macro is USM– for those tight, close-up detail shots!
