Updated
A kitchen is the room where materials touch your food every day, which makes it the highest-leverage place to swap out questionable coatings and plastics. This set covers the whole workflow: cooking, baking, prep, storage, cleanup, and the table.
Every pick is a material you can name at a glance: bare cast iron, uncoated steel, end-grain maple, stainless, cellulose, and glass. Nothing here relies on a nonstick coating or a plastic food-contact surface.
Start with the skillet; it replaces the pan you use most. Then work outward to prep and storage as your current pieces wear out.
