description: Whether you're preparing for pancake day or brunch, discover our top picks for making everything from the perfect crêpes to fluffy American pancakes.
encoded: Readying yourself for Pancake Day 2026 (Tuesday 17 February)? Though whisper-thin crêpes or soft American-style pancakes can be made in any decent non-stick frying pan, investing in a purpose-made pancake pan can make cooking and flipping the pancakes easier. Pancake pans offer impressive versatility, making them ideal for searing, browning, light frying and preparing other batter-based foods like blinis or Scotch pancakes – not just traditional pancakes. We put a range of pancake pans through their paces in the Good Food Test Kitchen, and if you're looking for a quick recommendation, the Dexam Supreme non-stick pancake pan and the Ninja Foodi Zerostick frying pan are my number-one star-buy picks. If you're after something specific, though, read on to discover more of our tried-and-tested favourites. Plus, check out our guide to the best tools for Pancake Day to find whisks, moulds, spatulas and more.

description: A hard-wearing, non-stick frying pan is a kitchen essential. We tested a wide range of pans at a variety of price points to find the best option for every type of cook
encoded: A good non-stick frying pan is one of those kitchen items I reach for every day, and the right one really does make cooking feel easier and more precise. It’s what I'll be relying on to make delicate, lacy easy crêpes on Pancake Day this year (the only acceptable pancake style in my opinion, but you may prefer a stack of fluffy American pancakes). Beyond that, it's essential for getting a golden fillet of sea bass in our white fish with sesame noodles, caramelising a rib-eye steak or rendering duck fat for seared duck with ginger mash. When you’re choosing one, I’d always check it suits your hob (particularly if you’ve got induction) and, if you like finishing dishes in the oven, that it’s genuinely oven-safe at high temperatures. A durable, PFAS-free coating matters, too. The pan that came out on top in our tests is the Ninja Foodi Zerostick 28cm frying pan. Our rigorous testing covered temperature control, ergonomic handle design, and eco-credentials. We prepared American pancakes, omelettes, and even tested dry ingredient movement to assess pan shape and balance. Read on to discover our top picks for the best frying pans, as rated by our reviews team. The latest additions were tested and reviewed by Annie Collyer.

description: Thinking of signing up for a recipe box subscription that delivers meal kits direct to your door? We put popular brands to the test to see whether they're a match for traditional home cooking.
encoded: Recipe subscription services – the concept of ingredients, individually portioned up for cooking meals at home and delivered straight to your door complete with detailed recipe cards– have boomed in recent years. They are certainly a convenient way to make evening meals without the hassle of planning recipes and visiting the supermarket. It's a step up from ready-meals as the food is prepared by hand, but it cuts out the legwork of cooking from scratch. However, they can be an expensive way to cook, especially if you like to hunt for reduced ingredients or shop at inexpensive local markets, plus there is no shortage of inspiration for easy recipes online if you're stuck in a food rut. There are also environmental pitfalls to using these services – they sometimes come with excessive packaging that can't be recycled. If you're thinking of signing up to a recipe delivery service, bear in mind the value for money, convenience factor and any limitations, especially the terms around cancelling a subscription. It's also worth considering any dietary requirements you have (some recipe boxes are more flexible than others) and how many people you want to serve. For solo cooks, few brands offer recipe boxes for one, but many offer meals for two if you're happy to have leftovers the next day. We tested and scored popular brands to help you make your decision. For more, visit our reviews section and find more than 400 practical buyer's guides offering unbiased advice on what foodie products and services are worth spending money on, including the best meal delivery services for when you don't want to cook at all, the best healthy meal box subscriptions and the best veg boxes to order to your door. We also have thousands of simple recipes for everyday mealtime inspiration.

description: A good wok is a versatile piece of kit that every home cook should own. From non-stick to traditional carbon steel, discover the best woks for every budget and cooking style.
encoded: The wok is a kitchen powerhouse. Its deep, bowl-shaped design heats quickly and evenly, with enough surface area to toss ingredients confidently, which is why it’s perfect for stir-fries. But I use mine for far more than that. A good wok can handle sautéing, braising, boiling, deep-frying and, if it comes with a lid, steaming too. Traditional carbon steel woks with rounded bottoms are brilliant for achieving that smoky 'wok hei' flavour, but they do need seasoning and a bit more care. Modern versions with flat bases and non-stick coatings are often better suited to home hobs. I’ve tested a wide range to find the best woks for 2026, whatever your cooking style or budget.

description: In the UK we’re advised to take vitamin D during the winter months, as we mainly source it from sunlight. Read our review to discover the different types of supplements you can take, and the best brands to choose
encoded: Vitamin D is an essential nutrient that plays a crucial role in keeping us healthy. It is well known for its part in maintaining strong bones and teeth by helping our bodies absorb calcium, but its benefits go much further. Vitamin D also contributes to a well-functioning immune system and supports mental wellbeing. In the UK, our main source of vitamin D comes from sunlight, as our skin produces it when exposed to UV rays. However, with our often overcast weather and shorter days during the autumn and winter months, it can be difficult for many people to get enough vitamin D from sunlight alone. While certain foods, such as oily fish, egg yolks and some fortified products, do provide small amounts of this important vitamin, it is widely recognised that supplementation is often necessary to maintain healthy levels throughout the year. Sponsored by Natures Zest Shine a light on your health with Natures Zest Vitamin D Known as the sunshine vitamin, vitamin D is essential for bone strength, immunity and muscle function, yet many of us don't get enough. At Natures Zest, its premium formulas are designed for maximum effectiveness and are all backed by rigorous third-party testing for quality you can trust. <a href="https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=102967&awinaffid=489797&campaign=VITAMIN+D+BBC&clickref=NaturesZestXGFVitD010226&ued=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.natureszestnutrition.com%2Fproducts%2Fnatures-zest-vitamin-d3-4000-iu-high-strength-d3-vitamin-for-calcium-absorption-immune-support-strengthen-bones-teeth-muscles-vegetarian-easy-to-swallow-150-gummies" target="blank" rel="sponsored noopener noreferrer">Vitamin D3 4000IU Gummies: tasty vegetarian gummies that deliver high-strength vitamin D3 to support bones, teeth and immunity from 21p per day. <a href="https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=102967&awinaffid=489797&campaign=VITAMIN+D+BBC&clickref=NaturesZestXGFVitD010226&ued=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.natureszestnutrition.com%2Fproducts%2Fnatures-zest-vitamin-d3-4000-iu-100%2…
