Whether you’re shopping for a present or planning to spend some time in the kitchen with your loved ones, you’ll want to check out the following gifts for foodies.
Maldon salt
Whether you want to enhance a meal, or simply add some salt to your food, Maldon salt is an excellent choice. With its unique pyramid-shaped crystals, this sea salt has a crisp texture and distinct salty punch.
Maldon Salt is available in a variety of forms, including flakes and smoked varieties. These are perfect for rimming cocktail glasses or enhancing a sweet dish.
The family behind Maldon salt has been in the salt business for a century. The current head of the company, Steve Osborne, follows in his father’s footsteps.
The pyramid-shaped crystals are hand-harvested by four generations of master salt makers. They are boiled in water to form the flakes, which fall to the bottom of the pan.
Urbani Truffles Black Truffle Olive Oil
Whether you’re a foodie, or just looking for a great gift for someone, Urbani Truffles Black Truffle Olive Oil is a nice choice. This olive oil is made from truffles and is not only trendy, but also high quality. You’ll get truffle-forward dishes in the restaurant, as well as truffle-infused oils you can use for salads, rice, fish, and other dishes.
The olive oil has a nice lingering taste of fresh truffles. It is also packed with essential fatty acids. The oil has been certified by the University of Camerino, and is recognized by CEA, a certifying body. It is gluten-free, cholesterol-free, and non-GMO.
Noona’s toasted-rice flavor
Among the many ice cream concoctions Noona’s produces is the toasted-rice ice cream. This homage to a traditional Korean rice snack aptly aptly uses toasted Korean brown rice, tamari, and dairy to make a nutty concoction that is both delicious and impressive. Noona plans to make this ice cream at a larger facility in the Bronx, and will likely source some of the ingredients from local vendors.
In fact, Hannah Bae, the mastermind behind Noona’s, is going to outsource some production to local vendors. She’s also got her sights set on expanding into the boroughs of New York City.
Le Creuset’s oval Dutch oven
Whether you’re looking for a gift for your favorite foodie or you’re in need of a pot for your own kitchen, Le Creuset’s oval Dutch oven is the perfect choice. This classic, enameled cast iron pot is ideal for soups, baked bread, and braising meat.
The enameled interior delivers superior heat distribution. And the Dutch oven’s tight-fitting lid keeps steam and moisture inside.
The Le Creuset 8-Quart Oval Dutch Oven is ideal for meal prep and holiday entertaining. Its oval shape makes it perfect for roasting chicken or baking bread. It also features interchangeable hardware.
Collapsible tapas board
Whether you’re a foodie or simply a person who enjoys a good charcuterie board, a collapsible tapas board can save you the trouble of using multiple small plates. It’s also a nice way to save space. The board is made in China and folds up to about half its size.
It’s usually made of wood or ceramic. It’s often decorated with Spanish motifs. The board may also include a secret drawer containing cheese knives.
Tapas can be served as an appetizer, as part of a meal or as a beverage with dinner. You can find these dishes at most Spanish restaurants.
