Saffron and Honey

Eat Chic

December 13, 2018

(Useful!) Foodie Gifts

In the last of this year’s gift guides, I bring you the (useful!) foodie gifts i.e. things I have and love and use A LOT in the kitchen that you and your friends also need to have – enjoy! x

  1. Cuisinart Mini Chopper – perhaps, not the “sexiest” gift, but it will be much appreciated by any mom whose chopping and dicing time will be cut in half! ($34.99)
  2. Whiskle – (I’ve written about this one before!) this is a favorite of mine: a whisk and a bowl scraper in one, so simple, so genius and so necessary ($10)
  3. Mortar & Pestle – you need this for all your herbs and toasted spices: this classic porcelain and beech wood set is made in England ($40)
  4. Joseph Joseph Can Opener – the can opener is one of the most disliked kitchen tools, but this one is easy to use and compact ($10)
  5. Rota Knife Sharpener – sharp knives are your best tool in the kitchen and this sharpener is completely un-intimidating ($20)
  6. Pourover Brewer – make your own single cup pourover at home with this chic staple! ($23)
  7. D’Artagnan Cassoulet Kit – a terrific kit of everything you need to make cassoulet, one of my favorite Christmas dishes! You get everything from the creamy-white heirloom haricot tarbais beans to duck leg confit and even the (optional) clay bowl ($79 and up)
  8. Jean Dubost Laguiole Steak Knives – a set of six beautiful steak knives made in France ($295)
  9. Finex Cast Iron Skillet – and make that steak in this beautiful, pre-seasoned cast iron skillet with a unique quick-cooling handle to boot ($179)

{ps.} Some of these are affiliate links, but I have tried and loved every single one of these products!

How do you pâté? My favorite from @3pigspate is the Pork & Chicken Liver Pâté with Armagnac​ aka
“Grandma’s Pâté.” This coarse pâté is made with pork, chicken liver, and spices with a bit of armagnac. All natural and minimally processed, made and sliced by hand and DELICIOUS ❤️ // I like it on a sweet cracker or with pain d’epices!
