Credit: Food & Wine / Amazon It’s always the little things that get you — opening packages, uncorking wine, making a mistake at the grill, and, of course, slicing avocados. The smallest misstep when handling food or managing kitchen tasks can quickly turn into a hospital visit if you aren’t vigilant about safety. Avocados are among the most treacherous, because they’re round, slippery, and multi-layered, offering a ton of opportunities for a knife slip or misfire.

And while the online shop may not have an excess of outdoor kitchen gadgets, it more than makes up with a ton of unreal discounts on gazebos, tents, chairs, and other ways to enjoy fresh meals, delicious snacks, and your favorite beverages outdoors.

Credit: Food & Wine / Madison Woiten As a person who cooks at home daily, one of my favorite aspects of dining out is getting to experience food that seems beyond what I’m capable of doing in my own kitchen. This isn’t to say that I couldn’t bake world-class sourdough for my morning toast, prepare some award-winning barbecue in my backyard, or create beautiful vermouth spheres for an experimental cocktail if I wanted to — I’m sure I could, with some practice.

Credit: Food & Wine Between holidays like Memorial Day weekend and incredible shopping events like Amazon Prime Day (which was just announced for July 8 to 11) it can be easy to forget that Amazon has incredible deals all year round — you just have to know where to look. We recently perused the digital aisles of Amazon’s hidden kitchen outlet, and found a ton of stellar deals on top kitchen brands like Lodge, Ninja, Keurig, Viking, Tramontina, and much more.

Credit: Food & Wine / Amazon We’ve all been there. You leave your favorite wholesale store after scoring some unbelievable deals on a distressingly huge box of olive oil, a sampler pack of delicious cheeses, a case of your favorite canned drink, or perhaps a 2.5-pound bag of medium roast coffee to brew at home. Exciting! Then, you get home and realize your pantry and/or refrigerator are in no way prepared to receive this bounty.

Credit: Food & Wine / Amazon I’ve been told that I’m fun to go out to eat with, but also that I can be really annoying. I’m the person who, when I see plates I love, lifts them up to see what’s printed on the bottom. I squint at the typeface underneath cool wine glasses and ask servers if they know where the pasta bowls came from. In short, when I encounter something awesome, I simply must know more.

Credit: Food & Wine / Amazon It feels weird to say that I have nostalgia for a kitchen spatula, but it’s true. Back in my restaurant days, I ran the flat-top grill in a small kitchen, and when you’re working a station that hot, you value efficiency. You learn to use the least number of tools necessary in the most energy-conserving way possible. Thus, I came to depend on one spatula for nearly everything I made.

Credit: Food & Wine Summertime sales are sneaky. We always think to check our favorite stores during Memorial Day and the Fourth of July, but we may not consider that powerful deals often appear during non-holiday times as well. Perusing the digital aisles of Nordstrom, we found a ton of awesome discounts on top brands like Le Creuset, Zwilling, Staub, and Henckels. Perhaps the real holiday this summer is the day you decide to pick up a stunning Dutch oven or new chef’s knife.
