Shop My Kitchen
These are the tools I reach for every day in my small and humble kitchen.
Over time I’ve swapped out non-stick for glass, coated pots for stainless steel, and plastic for wood. Nothing fancy, just things that make cooking calmer, safer and healthier for my family.

all in one
Combi Steam Oven
My current kitchen workhorse. It air fries, steams, bakes, grills, dehydrates and even cleans itself. Compact but powerful, perfect for busy weeknight cooking or batch prepping. I love that it’s made with stainless steel interior and accessories and can replace multiple appliances in one sleek setup.
Non-toxic swap
Glass Air Fryer
I chose a glass air fryer to avoid non-stick coatings. It’s a cleaner, low-tox alternative that lets you actually see your food as it cooks. Perfect for quick dinners, toddler meals, or when I need to walk away and let something crisp quietly on its own
Non-toxic swap
Steel Air Fryer Tray Insert
I use this to cook marinated salmon in the airfryer. Made from food-grade stainless steel, with an optional rack for crisping or roasting. A non-toxic alternative to silicone baskets and wax paper liners
The 15cm size fits perfectly in the Mayer glass air fryer
Non-toxic Swap
Yosukata Carbon Steel Wok
I use this carbon steel wok almost daily. It heats quickly, cooks evenly, and develops a natural non-stick patina over time. It’s a low-tox, lifelong kitchen essential that only gets better with use
Non toxic swap
Bamboo Chopping Boards
I swapped out all our plastic cutting boards for wood and haven’t looked back.
It’s a simple, non-toxic upgrade that’s gentler on knives and free of microplastic wear. This one’s sturdy, light, easy to clean, and actually looks nice on the counter too.
DINNER shortcut
Tefal Pressure Cooker
This pressure cooker saves me on the busiest days. It locks in flavour, cooks everything faster, and makes broths, soups, and stews taste like they’ve simmered for hours but in just 20 mins. I use it for everything from toddler meals to melt-in-your-mouth dinners with none of the wait
Non-toxic swap
Stainless Steel Inner Pot
I swapped out the original non-stick pot for this stainless steel inner pot. It’s a simple, low-tox upgrade that gives me peace of mind. No peeling coatings, just clean, even cooking I can trust for family meals. It's a pretty penny when compared with the cost of the Tefal pressure cooker, but worth every dollar for the peace of mind
non toxic swap
Stainless Steel Saucepan
My go-to for blanching veggies, boiling pasta, and perfect for instant noodles
Lightweight, non-toxic, and heats fast with no coating to worry about. I use this Japanese pot almost daily - it’s simple, sturdy, and quietly reliable
non-toxic swap
Stainless Steel Frying Pan
Durable, non-toxic, and coating-free, this pan is a great everyday option once you get used to the heat control. It gives a great sear, works on most stovetops, and is a long-lasting healthy alternative to nonstick
Time honoured cookware
Traditional Chinese Claypot
This is the pot I use for dishes like Hong Shao Rou and claypot rice. It holds heat beautifully and goes straight from stove to table
Unlike non-stick cookware, it’s naturally non-toxic and designed to last for years. A calm, comforting kitchen essential for slow-cooked dinners that feel like home
Non Toxic Swap
Enamelled Cast Iron Pan
I use this cast iron casserole instead of a traditional claypot. It holds heat beautifully, cooks evenly, and is completely non-toxic
It’s perfect for rice dishes, stews, one-pot meals, or anything you want gently simmered and served straight to the table. It's beautiful and it’ll last you a lifetime
Non-toxic swap
Platinum Silicone Bags
Perfect for freezing blended veggies, marinating meat, storing frozen broth, or packing snacks on the go.
Made from platinum-grade silicone, which is non-toxic, durable, and safe for both hot and cold foods
Non-toxic swap
Glass Food Processor
A useful blender for everything from veggie prep to quick sauces and baby food.
It’s compact but powerful with stainless steel blades and a non-toxic glass cup that won’t absorb smells or stains.
