An elegant, open California kitchen; a tiny, colorful basement kitchen in Boston; an antique-industrial kitchen in Atlanta with a huge window. These are just a few of the many kitchens we shared with you this past year — real home kitchens used by real cooks, many of them avid readers of The Kitchn.
Every space had a personality and style unique to its cook, which is what we love to see. (That, and great design and organizing ideas!) Here are 15 favorites.
This time of year, once the holiday cookies have been nibbled away and the eggnog put to rest, many of us begin about clearing the plate, so to speak.
Today, I thought I’d share with you the seven essentials in our house that we use to jumpstart our healthy-eating routine for the new year. They’re all good basics, nothing too fancy or fussy, and should be easy to find at your local supermarket.
While our focus is usually centered around the fastest way to get dinner on the table, we think it’s luxurious to have a few hours to just cook. Lucky enough to have more than a few days off? Why not try several projects? We’ve rounded up 15 of our favorite projects for an afternoon or snowy weekend. Let’s get cooking!
Chicken is always a winner in our book. Is there anything else more versatile, satisfying, or accommodating to just about any spice or seasoning in our cupboard? And yet it’s so easy to fall into a rut and end up cooking the same thing night after night. Well, let’s shake up that routine, shall we? From a quick skillet dinner of chicken sausage with gnocchi to a whole chicken cooked slowly in coconut milk, here are 20 new ways you can say I love you, chicken.
Merry Christmas from all of us here at The Kitchn! We hope that you a joyful, peaceful day full of good food and happy times with the ones you love.
Q: Many of the carrots I grow in my home garden have some green color at the top and near the center of the carrot. A friend told me the green part is toxic and should not be eaten. Is this true?

From one sweet tooth to another, I think we can agree on one thing — there’s always room for dessert! Whether it’s as simple as a few cookies for a weeknight treat, or a beautiful layer cake to end the evening, something sweet always hits the spot.
