As people who write about food and test kitchen gadgets for a living, Bon Appétit editors are constantly surrounded by a wide range of products. Between our own purchases and the endless stream of samples sent our way, it means there’s always something new coming across our desks and into our homes. Every month, we’re rounding up the standouts we’ve tested or bought ourselves that changed the way we cook and eat.
This month a super-practical find—a gadget for opening cans without joint pain—a gluten-free pasta that even gluten-loving folks can get behind, and a new masala chai from one of our favorite spice companies. Read on for all of the products we’ve been obsessing over this September.
