My Favorite Things

Clare de Boer knows her way around a kitchen. After working at River Café in London, the James Beard-nominated British chef moved to New York, where she now helms Manhattan’s King and Jupiter alongside Jess Shadbolt and Annie Shi; last spring, she struck out on her own with Stissing House, a historic Hudson Valley tavern, which she’s reimagined with simple, wood-fired fare and a Shaker-inspired setting. Below, de Boer reveals the items she turns to while cooking—and more of her daily necessities
