SAVEUR Selects: September 2014

I could eat dozens of oysters in a single sitting. This handmade oyster knife has a wooden handle, so it's comfortable to hold and makes shucking easy.

When I finished my internship at Saveur, I was given one of these mini stoneware cocottes. Now that I run the test kitchen, each of my assistants gets one, too.

Who says white wine is just for summer? The 2013 Pascual Tosos Estate Torrontes from Argentina is light and smooth, and will be my go-to bottle this fall.

The stemware from Bormiolli Rocco's new line In Alto Uno isn't just beautiful—the stem of each glass is specially treated to be extra resistant to breakage.

Growing up, my mom didn't allow snack foods, but Dad always kept a stash of Little Debbie's Oatmeal Cream Pies—to this day, I find them impossible to resist.

We do a lot of precise measuring to test recipes in the Saveur kitchen—these mini ¼ cup measuring cups are perfect for preparing my mise en place.

My favorite Saveur issue: I love the Naples issue—it was fun to work on since I'm such a pizza fanatic.
A dish that reminds me of home: I'm from Maryland, so anything with crab! I love cream of crab soup, crab dip, crab cakes, you name it.
Where I'm planning my next trip: Hopefully somewhere in Northern Africa, particularly Morocco. I love the food, and the landscape is so beautiful.
