Welcome to the updated and refreshed What's Gaby Cooking Master List!
What is a master list you ask? It's my go-to page here on WGC where I can answer and link every single question I get on a regular basis - from DMs, the website, meeting you guys in person, our secret FB group, emails... you name it! I've been keeping track, writing them down and now everything lives in one place! Read on...
Table of Contents
The WGC Master List ONLY includes products that I use on a daily basis. Things that live on my kitchen counters at all times or things I find myself grabbing on the daily. Things that I travel with every single time I get on a plane because they make my life better. Things that really stand out. NOTHING is sponsored, just 1000% products that I know are epic and you need in your life! I'll be adding to this every time something new comes up so if something is missing, just shout it out in the comments below!

You can get 20% off your Boll & Branch order with code GABY20 (no purchase min!) through the end of October! see site for details
- Cooling Mattress Pad - We were between the 8Sleep and Ooler but ultimately settled on the 8Sleep. Here's why Thomas chose it: Both cool your bed down to 55 degrees or heat it up to 115 degrees, but where the 8Sleep sets itself apart is in the tracking features built into the mattress and Sleep Pod (mattress pad). 8Sleep has the ability to track your heart rate, which can inform how well you're sleeping through the night. It knows when you are awake, in light sleep, and in deep sleep. It also has the ability to monitor your HRV (heart rate variability), which is a key indicator of how much your body has recovered from the day's activities. It also tracks how much you toss and turn throughout the night. Many wearables such as the Apple Watch, the Oura Ring, and the Whoop band all track these metrics based on your heart rate. The challenge with these wearables is that you have to wear them while you sleep, which can feel bulky. It took me a good 3 months to get used to sleeping with a whoop band or Apple Watch. Quality sleep is one of the most important factors when it comes to peak performance and living a healthy life. I workout 5-6 days a week, so recovery is essential. Being a data person, I was drawn to the tracking features that 8Sleep provides. Being able to have a better understanding of when I sleep well and what factors contribute to that quality sleep was a no brainier for me. Lastly, 8Sleep has a single tower that regulates temperature for both sides of the bed, whereas Ooller requires a tower for each user.

Electronics / Tech Gear (written by Thomas)
- Sonos Arc (SoundBar) - The latest and greatest when it comes to soundbars. We are setting this beauty up with our main TV. The new Sonos Arc delivers dolby atmos (theater quality) sound. One of the best parts about this soundbar is that it is actually not ugly. We are pairing this soundbar with the Sonos sonance in ceiling speakers (2 for the rear) and our Sonos sub woofer that we have had for the last couple of years. The rear speakers are powered by the Sonos amp. Now when I watch the Lakers or Dodgers, I will really feel like I am at the game. You know Gaby is stoked about this. If you are looking to upgrade past your television speakers, this would be where I would begin. I would start with the soundbar. Then I would add the Sonos Sub. The last elements I would add would be two rear speakers and an amp to complete the full surround sound. | Available at Amazon & Sonos
- Sonos Amp - Our Sonos amps are used to power all our in ceiling speakers and outdoor speakers. Each amp can power up to 4 different speakers and creates its own "zone". We have an amp powering our 2 rear speakers in the TV room, the kitchen/bar zone, the pool zone, and the patio zone. | Available at Amazon & Sonos
- Sonos Sub - The sub we have had for several years now. It was originally paired with the Sonos playbar and now we are planning to pair it with the Sonos arc to get that full Dolby Atmos sound for Gaby when she watched Game of Thrones and or Emily in Pairs. | Available at Amazon and Sonos
- In-Ceiling Speakers - The in ceiling speakers are a collaboration Sonos does with Sonance (a different speaker company that makes architectural speakers). The cool thing about these speakers is that they are the only ones on the market that can be tuned using Sonos true play. We have these speakers in the bar/kitchen area and the TV room. | Available at Amazon & Sonos
- Sonos Five - The Sonos five is the big speaker on the block for Sonos. Its a desktop speaker that has killer sound. We will be having this speaker sit in our bar area so gaby can listen to taylor swift in hi fidelity while having an aperol spritz. Also, the new Sonos five looks awesome, so its not like you have an ugly looking speaker sitting out in your room. It's a win win. | Available at Amazon & Sonos
- Sonos One - The Sonos one, formerly know as the play one is what we are going to be using in our dining room. We are pairing two of these play ones to create ambient vibes. We have had the play ones for several years now, as this was our very first Sonos purcahse like 6 years ago. I think the coolest thing about Sonos is the ability to build up a system over time. Eventually we will be adding in ceiling speakers to the dining room, however to save some money we decided we will use the speakers we have for this area. | Available at Amazon & Sonos
- Sonos Move - The Sonos move is basically my wing man. I take with me where ever I go. Its the first Sonos product that is bluetooth enabled so it lets you enjoy great sounding music on the move. If I were just starting to build out my Sonos system today, this would be the speaker I start with. | Available at Amazon & Sonos
- External Charger - Never leave home without it!! It can charge your phone at least 5 times before you need to recharge it. | Available at Amazon
- Noise Canceling Headphones - My go-to choice for headphones for all plane rides. | Available at Amazon

I am a Gabyholic!
Thank you for all of your wonderful recipes, recommendations and products.
I have purchased MANY items from your product line through Williams and Sonoma, but as of late they are not available. If the relationship between you and WS has ended, I express my condolences, but the show must go on Gaby. Please let me know how I can continue to support Gaby's products. Continued healthy success to you, Gaby!
No pressure, I'll wait, but I do my seasonings and oils! Smile.

Hi, the slow cooker links are taking me to a food processor. I’d love to know which slow cooker you recommend. Thanks!
fixing now!
Where can I find your cover ups you wore at St. Barts?
Gabby,
Williams Sonoma used to carry your Everything Sauces but they don't seem to carry them anymore, or at least the one I used to use all the time. Can I order the Lemon Pepper Artichoke sauce directly from you?
soon!! YES!
Hi! What are your flour & sugar canisters? Hubs broke the 20yo one so now I get to buy new yay!!
What were the wine glass tumblers that you were using with Katie Lee when you were cooking in your kitchen a few weeks ago? I love that type of glass. Thanks!

Hi Gaby,
At your recommendation, I bought the Authentic Greek Feta in brine from Trader Joe’s. Tell me what the trick is to opening the package, as my husband worked with a knife for a good 10+ minutes to finally open it. And you’re correct in that it is delicious!
There must be a trick to getting the package open, so please share that.
Thanks.
I can’t find gimme chimi spice mix by Gaby at Williams Sonoma anymore. Where can I get a hold of this wonderful spice mixture? I use it to make your smashed avocado fish tacos and it’s out of this world. If it’s been discontinued I am going to be really sad!!
Thank you,
Susie Rupp
