Ina Garten Just Shared a Glimpse of Her Fully Stocked Pantry—Here's What She Has on Hand (2024)

In the most recent installment of "Ask Ina," Ina Garten's fan-question-driven Instagram series, the Barefoot Contessa showed how she makes vanilla extract and stores it in her pantry.

While the vanilla-making process was interesting—and surprisingly easy!—all we could notice was the rest of her organized pantry and the staples inside of it. After taking a closer look, here's what you need to know about her home pantry.

First, think of any nut variety, and Garten probably has it on hand. We see almonds, pecans, walnuts and more sitting on her shelves from the brand Citarella. These sit alongside a classic jar of Skippy creamy peanut butter, of course.

For her flours and grains, Garten separates them into plastic containers for organization, but there's a couple of name brands in sight, like McCann's Steel Cut Irish Oatmeal and Indian Head Old-Fashioned Stone Ground Yellow Corn Meal. She stores the cornmeal next to Bob's Red Mill baking powder in plastic bags.

And for her sweet shelf, there are a few jars of Bonne Maman jellies and preserves, honey, Nabisco Famous Chocolate Wafers and Cacao due Vecchi cocoa powder on display. We imagine that this is where Garten spends her time perusing when gathering ingredients for her famous Berry Breakfast Cake and desserts like her French Apple Tart.

If you're curious about the pantry structure in general, we also have an answer for that. When a fan commented asking for her pantry rack information, Garten was quick to respond. They're Metro Racks available at The Container Store, Amazon or "any restaurant supply store."

We can't wait to take inspiration from Garten's own pantry. With this, her home kitchen remodel and her tips for an organized kitchen, we're ready to embrace our inner Ina in our own spaces!
