Allrecipes via MSN: These Are the Non-Toxic Cooking Utensils Chefs Actually Use
We’re fired up to share that Melinda’s and Chef David “Fig” Figueroa were featured in Allrecipes’ roundup of non-toxic cooking essentials—also picked up by MSN! The article includes direct links to Melindas.com and highlights three of our best-selling Amazon collections: the Mild & Wild Variety Pack, Craft Wing Collection, and Hot Honey Collection.
Chef Fig brings over 30 years of culinary expertise to his recommendations, from OXO’s durable wooden spoons and tongs to Di Oro’s seamless silicone spatulas. His tips are all about performance and health—just like our sauces. Whether it’s scraping fond with the perfect spoon or whipping up hot gravy with a nonstick-safe whisk, these tools are chef-tested and home-kitchen ready.
