Microplastic awareness is at an all-time high — so what can you do to reduce their presence in your kitchen? Start with your tools and utensils. If you haven’t already, toss any black plastic utensils, which may contain cancer-causing flame retardants. Next, replace them with non-toxic cooking utensils made from materials like wood, stainless steel, and silicone. Not only are they safer, but they look and work better than many of their plastic counterparts.
While there are tons of options to choose from, who better to take advice from than Martha Stewart? Her kitchen brand has tons of non-toxic tools and utensils, and they’re available at Amazon for very reasonable prices. Read on for our picks — most are $15 or less.

Stainless Steel Balloon Whisk
Amazon
The balloon whisk is the most common type of whisk for good reason. It’s great for aerating (think extra fluffy whipped cream), emulsifying sauces and dressings, and mixing dry ingredients. You’ll recognize one by its bulbous shape and flexible wires. This stainless steel version is light but sturdy and will quickly become part of your everyday arsenal.
4-Piece Stainless Steel Measuring Spoons
Amazon
While we recommend weighing the majority of your baking ingredients on a kitchen scale, small amounts of spices, baking powder or soda, and salt are still easiest to measure with a set of measuring spoons. These spoons are easy to get into most sizes of containers and are made from reliable, non-toxic stainless steel rather than your usual plastic.
3-Piece Carving Board Set with Knife and Fork
Amazon
When looking for a non-plastic cutting board, wood is our first pick. This carving board set includes a juice groove for catching meat drippings and a fork and knife set to help you get the job done. The riveted handles ensure a sturdy connection that’s made to last for many Thanksgiving meals to come.
4-Inch Professional Stainless Steel Pizza Cutter
Amazon
If you’ve ever tried to cut neat slices of pizza, quesadillas, or even pie dough with a worn-out knife, you know why a pizza cutter is worth owning. The sleek design of this stainless steel version features an ergonomic handle, finger guard, and non-slip grip. Whether you’re heating up a frozen favorite or making dough from scratch, this tool will come in handy.
14-Piece High Carbon Stainless Steel Cutlery Set
Amazon
If you need to replace a whole lot of blades at once, try a knife set. This one has our most-used knife types with full tang construction — meaning the blade extends through the entire handle instead of ending just inside the handle — for strong, balanced, and durable knives. Currently, each knife is less than $4.
Stainless Steel Spatula
Amazon
We reach for a thin spatula to easily flip and turn pancakes, burgers, eggs, fish — you name it. This spatula’s stainless steel surface won’t bend or melt like plastic versions, and the handle is coated in silicone for heat protection and comfort.
8-Inch Forged Triple Riveted Stainless Steel Chef Knife
Amazon
If we could only recommend one type of knife, it would be the chef’s knife. This versatile version features the same riveted handle and full tang design as Martha Stewart’s full knife set at a price that can’t be beat.
4-Piece Stainless Steel Measuring Cups
Amazon
Yes, we stand by a kitchen scale for weighing ingredients when baking, but that doesn’t mean measuring cups are useless. Use them when precise measurements are less important like in stir-fries or salads, to tamp down a press-in crust, or to scoop ingredients into a bowl to weigh. Pro tip: When measuring a sticky ingredient like peanut butter or honey, coat your measuring cup or spoon with a little cooking oil for easy release.
4-Piece Wooden Kitchen Tool Set
Amazon
A wooden spoon is about as classic of a kitchen utensil as there is. This set of wooden utensils features two spoons and two spatulas, all safe for use on any kind of surface including enamel and nonstick cookware. Stir, scrape, and even serve with them — each piece is both useful and aesthetically pleasing.
2-Piece Stainless Steel Tongs Set
Amazon
We reach for kitchen tongs to flip, toss, and serve. This 2-piece set features 9- and 12-inch tongs with full stainless steel construction and locking pull tabs for easy storage. If they end up covered in grease or baked-on food, just toss them in the dishwasher.
10-Piece Tools and Gadget Set with Ceramic Crock
Amazon
If you’re really starting from scratch, this 10-piece tool and gadget set has everything you need, including some of the pieces we’ve recommended above. Each is made with either stainless steel, wood, silicone, or a combination, and they’ll look great on your counter nestled into the included ceramic crock.
9-Piece Stainless Steel Prep & Serve Kitchen Gadget and Tool Set
Amazon
If you’d prefer sleeker construction, go for this set that comes with all stainless steel pieces, a few with heatproof silicone handles. Every item is a multi-tasker guaranteed to be well-used in your kitchen. With the current deal, each tool is $5 apiece.
