MY FAVORITE COOKING GIFTS

Okay okay, Sinterklaas is not very close yet, but believe me: in some families the names have already been drawn and they are already starting on page 1 of the 80 of the poem of poems. I always try to buy all the gifts in one store, saves a lot of stress I can tell you, and it's fun to stick to one theme. My store? The cooking store of course. There is always something to find for everyone, whether you can cook or not. Even for children, I absolutely succeed.

Because we are all so damn busy these days, I have already scoured the net for the best cooking gifts. You don't have to worry about that anymore. Good luck with writing…

Salt and pepper set

Sounds silly, but it isn't. Especially not if you choose the brand Peugeot. Such a set is something you would never buy for yourself so quickly, but it is something you will enjoy for a lifetime.

A silicone spatula

I can't live without this thing, which I seriously use every day and for every dish. Stirring in the pan, flipping an omelet, or taking a bite of soup from the pot; this spatula is indispensable in my kitchen. You can buy them in various fun colors.

Slow cooker

Look, this is a gift for when you really really want to impress. It's a super expensive gift, so maybe this is outside the budget, but a slow cooker is a fantastic pot. It's especially very convenient when you're cooking for a large group but don't have much time. In the morning, you prepare the pot with ingredients (set the alarm for example at 6 o'clock) and in the evening you can sit down at the table right away. Meat is cooked at a very low temperature for a long time. TENDER!

A professional ice cream scoop

Also something you wouldn't buy for yourself so quickly, but it looks festive. This way you can score points with pancakes with a perfect scoop of vanilla ice cream. Just to name something.

A razor-sharp knife

Even amateur cooks seem like masters in cooking with such a knife. Chop, chop, chop, chop, perfectly sliced onion rings…

Serving spoon

A good serving spoon is worth its weight in gold. Usually, you just use the largest spoon that is in your drawer or one that you bought somewhere years ago. Seriously, a real serving spoon is a treat. Also for the eye.

Wine cooler

Especially for wine lovers, this is a very nice gift. You also don't have to keep going to the fridge for a sip. Hop, in a cooler on the table.

Cheese fondue pot

I don't need to say more, do I?
