Martha Stewart reveals her 'essential' for celebrating Valentine’s Day at home

Martha Stewart says good cookware is an essential part of celebrating Valentine’s Day at home. “When your cookware works as it should, you can focus on the flavors, the presentation and the people you’re cooking for,” she adds. She has curated an Amazon storefront, and with Prime, many of her top picks can arrive within days — a useful option for last-minute plans or gifts.

Highlighted items include a heart-shaped 2-quart enamel cast iron Dutch oven; one five-star review noted it heats evenly, the enamel coating makes cleaning easy, and it produced a crispy-crusted, soft-centered loaf of bread. The heart design suits the holiday, though round shapes are also available in a range of colors.

Other suggestions range from 14-ounce hobnail glass goblets and a heart-shaped cast aluminum cake mold to the Gracie Lane 12-piece porcelain dinnerware set with gold details, colorful Modern Waffle kitchen towels, and the Empress Bouquet 12-piece porcelain set that mixes well with solid plates.
