Cooks - Williams-Sonoma ?

ayersfam20 · August 2011

I can't remember if I posted this before or not. I have a $100 g.c. to Williams-Sonoma as a "prize" from a program I did. I was going to buy the pasta maker attachment to my stand mixer, but now I'm thinking I might want something I would use more often.

The only things I have from there are a few whisks, an apron and some placemats so I don't have much experience with their stuff.

If you had $100 to spend there, what would you buy?

I'm not sure what I'd buy..my kitchen is pretty stocked. But all of their stuff is great quality, so you could just go in and see what strikes your fancy. I would probably hold on to it unitl after the holidays and buy some holiday themed serveware.

I would put it toward a new piece of Le Creuset cookware or stoneware most likely. I have a smallish Le Creuset dutch oven and it's my favorite. I love to bake using stoneware.

Oooo. This is a very good suggestion.

They have an amazing selection of cookbooks. They also sell some great sauces/marinades/crock pot starters.

You don't have to spend the whole $100 at once, so buy whatever strikes your fancy.

I like the little herb mill they have and really nice pepper grinders are a luxury worth having, IMO. Maybe you can upgrade some of the small kitchen stuff you already have?

Do you have a good wine opener? We have the Screwpull, and it's awesome. We probably got it 5 years ago, and DH probably averages a few bottles a month, so it definitely gets used, and it's still going strong. Although, I don't remember getting the whole set - maybe you can just find the opener by itself in the store (for cheaper).

Knives or a Dutch oven, if you don't already have those. I use the *** out of some knives, and the difference between crappy ones and good ones is like night and day.

their lotions smell delish too.

I had a $100 gift card to Sur La Table and I bought a food dehydrator. Probably not something everyone is going to use everyday, and it reminds me that I have a watermelon in our other fridge to dehydrate!

I'd use it towards another good knife. The Le Creuset would be a choice if I needed any of those. I used another large value gift card towards a chefs choice 3-stage knife sharpener. It's basically what the stores use when you bring your knives in for sharpening.

I think I will get a new knife. I have 2 dutch ovens that I love and plenty of other kitchen tools. I'm out of space for anything bigger. Thanks for the suggestions!

i'm about to go buy this with a coupon i have: http://www.williams-sonoma.com/products/cuisinart-multicooker/?pkey=cpressure-rice-slow-cookers

otherwise if you only want to spend your gc, i love their soaps/lotions sets; they have good wine you can order; maybe a nice ss pan/pot; some of their gourmet spices that i normally wouldn't buy b/c they're not very versatile
