This Splatterware Sheet Pan Makes a Glorious Little Gift

Wait 5 sec.

Before I got married, I was hellbent on not having a wedding registry.My husband and I had already lived together for four years, and it felt silly to add material items to our already-full, quite-small apartment.But then I had a sobering realization: Without a registry, well-meaning great aunts or friends of my in-laws would go off-book, and we’d be left with a stockpile of “Mr.” and “Mrs.” mugs or worse — signage emblazoned with “The Rankels.” (I did not change my last name.)So I did what any persnickety, particular person would do — I sat down and curated an exhaustive list of nice-to-have items. A few months later, at my bridal shower, I tore open pie-in-the-sky gifts with glee, but the best item ended up being one of the most humble: a petite enamelware tray in a peppy teal-and-white splatter pattern.Don’t get me wrong, I swear by some of the Wirecutter picks I added to our list. I marvel every time the Zojirushi Neuro Fuzzy Rice Cooker churns out plump, chewy rice, and I proudly display my Le Creuset Dutch oven on the stove when it’s not in use. But of the items from our registry, the one I reach for most often is Crow Canyon’s small splatterware tray. A Goldilocks-size sheet pan with a Pollock-y paint jobCrow Canyon Enamelware Small Rectangular TrayThis splatterware sheet pan is about the size of a piece of computer paper, so it’s perfect for roasting sides, reheating leftovers, and serving snacks.$28 from Crow Canyon
