Associate Editor, ATK Reviews] Whether you’re already an avid fan of Mediterranean cooking (like me) or simply want to dip your toe in Mediterranean waters, some key pieces of equipment are worth investing in. Our favorite [mortar and pestle]( makes grinding fresh spices and herbs a breeze, and a well-designed [fish spatula]( allows you to handle fillets (and so many other delicate foods) with care. In this week’s guide, you’ll find all the best tools for Mediterranean-style cooking, as well as essential ingredients to keep in your pantry. Along with our top-rated cookware and pantry picks, check out our newest cookbook, [More Mediterranean](. It’s the highly anticipated follow-up to our best seller [The Complete Mediterranean Cookbook](.
