To cook or not to cook with your wedding rings on? Experts and brides share their opinions while cooking a delicious and romantic date night menu. Watch jewelry experts and brides debate rings in the kitchen while preparing a gorgeous date night menu, including Taylor Swift's favorite cocktail.



Ever wonder if you should keep your engagement ring on while cooking? This feature from Engagement 101 settles the debate once and for all—or does it?


We gather amazing women for a lively discussion about rings, relationships, and romance, all while whipping up an incredible date night dinner together. The Great Ring Debate? The opinions are all over the map, and honestly, that's what makes it fun!



We definitely have a "I Keep Them On" Camp and a "Depends on What I'm Doing" Group. Why we love this feature? This isn't just about cooking or jewelry, it's about the real conversations that happen when women get together in the kitchen. We get practical ring care advice, relationship insights, cooking inspiration, and that warm feeling of hanging out with friends who genuinely enjoy each other's company.


Our guests include


  • Shahla Karimi and her team, they all star in the TV reality Diamond Divas.

  • Marisa Perry who co-owns a jewelry brand in the West Village in New York.

  • Vivian Warwick, owner of Henri Noël in Naples, Florida.

  • Just married Lauren McLemore of National Jeweler.



The Romantic Date Night Menu But here's where it gets really good, while they are debating this important issue, they're also creating a stunning menu that'll make you want to cook (with or without your rings):


🍸 French Blonde Cocktail: Lauren walks us through Taylor Swift's reported favorite drink—a botanical, refreshing blend of fresh grapefruit juice, Lillet Blanc, London dry gin, St-Germain, and bitters. It looks fancy but it's surprisingly easy.


🍅 Tomato Carpaccio: A fresh, elegant starter that's as beautiful as it is delicious brought to you through a collab between Henri Noël and Justine's Table.


🍗 A Mouthwatering Roast Chicken: Marisa shares her tips to roast the perfect chicken. 🥔 Creamy Mashed Potatoes: Marisa makes them luxurious with Yukon Gold potatoes, butter, milk, and the perfect amount of seasoning.


🌹 Saffron and Roses Olive Oil Cake: The pièce de résistance — a decadent dessert made with ethically sourced, women-owned olive oil and saffron (yes, the aphrodisiac). Team Shahla Karimi brings its A-game to create this magical cake.  The detailed recipe is linked here https://www.slofoodgroup.com/blogs/re....

Enjoy the watch!


Tips from Jewelers Mutual that will be very useful if you are planning to cook this Holiday Season!


Cooking with your rings on can be a fun way to enjoy the sparkle while you stir, sauté, and serve—but accidents can happen. That’s why dedicated jewelry insurance from a provider like Jewelers Mutual® matters. It helps protect your rings from loss, damage, theft, and even mysterious disappearance, giving you confidence to keep them on when the recipe allows.


But if you’re diving knuckle-deep into cookie dough or stuffing a turkey, go ahead and slip your ring off and store it safely away from open drains or busy countertops. Cleanup will be a lot easier when you’re not scrubbing batter out of your setting—and your jewelry will stay just as brilliant as your baking skills.
