If you know someone who loves to cook, the right kitchen tools and gadgets can make all the difference. Not sure where to start when it comes to finding the best cooking gifts? Woman's World has you covered! Our shopping editors have rounded up the best of the best when it comes to gifts for cooking enthusiasts. And since cooking isn't for everyone, we've also included a few gift ideas for those people who don't like to cook or are just getting started on their culinary journey. Surprise and inspire the food lover in your life with an ideal present from our gift guide! Amazon
This durable roasting pan is perfect for anyone who loves to be in the kitchen (or who is hosting this holiday season)! It has a three-ply construction that sandwiches heat-conducting aluminum between two layers of non-reactive stainless steel with a mirror finish.
The rack allows heat to circulate the meat and provides space below to roast vegetables and catch delicious drippings. They'll love the quick-read thermometer this roaster comes with! It's water-resistant and turns on and off automatically when opened and closed and attaches magnetically to the pan for handy storage.
This culinary knife set makes a great gift for the steak-eater in your life. It comes in a beautiful wooden gift box — all you have to do is slap a gift tag on and you're good to go! Made from the highest-quality German steel, they'll love the performance and durability of these knives.
Help them look the part with a professional-grade apron! This is one of those cooking gifts they'll have for years to come. Hedley & Bennett is a Los Angeles-based company that's female founded and reimagining chef-grade cookware and apparel to inspire creativity and confidence in professional and home kitchens.
I love the pockets on this apron because they allow me to keep my phone on hand (I find most of my recipes online!) instead of losing it in the mess that inevitably becomes of my countertops when I'm cooking. Hedley & Bennett's aprons are also super-stylish and help me feel like a professional chef even if I'm only cooking for my family.
CookUnity is a marketplace amplifying and scaling many a chef's businesses past brick and mortar. The services offers 400+ dishes around the country delivered right to your door. From Ground Lamb Gyro Bowls to Coconut-Wasabi Cod and Cuban Pork with Mojo de Ajo, whoever receives this gift will have delicious, hand-crafted meals at the ready.
A CookUnity gift card is the perfect gift for the person who doesn't know how to cook or simply wants to try new dishes.
If there's one thing we could all do better, it's eat more fruits and vegetables. Kėncko makes it easy to do so with their assortment of smoothies, iced lattes, protein, and more.
Kėncko products contain no colors, flavor enhancers, preservatives, or fillers, and each pack contains 2.5 cups of fruit and vegetables. Whoever you gift Kėncko to will love how easy it is to eat better! Simply shake one of the smoothie packets with 10-12 ounces of chilled water or milk and you're good to go!
The perfect pan can instantly amplify anyone's cooking. "I’ve admittedly been a fan of Smithey Ironworks for years," Tercius Bufete, our Executive Editor , says.
"The quality and aesthetic of these pans make them heirloom-level. In fact, I’ve steadily collected these pans over the course of a few years and their latest pan, the Little Farmhouse Skillet, is their most approachable carbon steel pan ever. It’s my designated egg pan and its use is my favorite part of my breakfast routine. This pan is the perfect gift for the burgeoning chef in your life—it’s a gift that gets better with time and when treated with care, it’s a piece that’ll last a lifetime."
Tercius has another amazing gift recommendation for anyone who loves being in the kitchen! "A Japanese Knife is the epitome of a cool and useful gift," he says.
"As someone who spends a lot of time in the kitchen, I would be overjoyed if I received something like a Shun Kagerou 6.5" Nakiri Knife as a gift. Beautiful, functional and guaranteed to delight the chef in your life—Shun knives are the favorite of celebrity chefs like Iron Chefs Bobby Flay and Masaharu Morimoto. This particular piece is perfect for chopping fruits and vegetables thanks to its broad, rectangular silhouette and super-sharp edge."
Ambrosia produce bags provide a simple and natural way to keep vegetables fresher, longer with some help from raw flax linen. The material has inherent qualities that inhibit bacteria and mold unlike any other natural textile, and Commerce Writer Savannah Born swears by them.
" I've saved so much money and wasted so much less produce with these linen refrigerator bags!" she says. "They create an ideal environment for fruits and veggies, extending their shelf lives by up to two weeks. This set is a brilliant gift for eco-conscious people, home chefs and those on a budget!"
If I told you I didn't add this to my cart after discussing it with our Executive Editor, I'd be lying. "I love my Ooni Volt," he says. "It's made ordering pizza a thing of the past, and as a New Yorker, that's saying a lot. This electric pizza oven makes it easy to bake restaurant-level pizza at home. Better still, no fussing with wood pellets or gas."
Tight on space? That's not a problem with this vertical garden planter. Perfect for herbs, fruits, and vegetables. It comes with 30 non-GMO indoor plants, herbs, and vegetables to get you started, making it the ultimate gift for the home chef!
Know someone who loves making sourdough bread or wants to get in on the trend? This tool makes it foolproof! It creates the perfect environment for a sourdough starter to thrive, known as the "Goldilocks Zone" to sourdough pros.
B akers can bake their best bread all year round without warming up their whole house! What's more, this isn't another thing that'll take up space on the countertops — it has a small footprint and only holds up to a quart sized jar.
Turn your Goldie gift into a set with this bread blanket! The muslin cloth helps keep fresh bread clean and protected, but that's not all. It doubles as a tablecloth or blanket for picnics, potlucks, and more. Unlike traditional bread bags, this cloth fits breads of all shapes and sizes, making it a versatile must-have for any baker.
Any pit master would love to unwrap this spice set for the holidays! This collection of best-sellers isn't jus for BBQing, though. Any home chef can use them in oven-baked dishes, stovetop delights, broiler masterpieces – even baked goods and cocktails. Meals will never disappoint with this set!
You can permanently remove meat from your shopping list. Porter Road will ship it right to you door!
Everything we've ever tried from Porter Road has been of superior quality and taste. This is way different than the meat you're getting at the grocery store, folks. It's pasture raised and you can taste the difference! We're subscribed to the Butcher's Choice Box, which comes packed to the gills with steak, ground beef, and other seasonal offerings every eight weeks, but there are several other subscription boxes (and delivery frequencies) to choose from.
I use this grater almost daily in our household. From shredding fresh cheese to grating vegetables to cooking and baking, this rotary grater makes the process so fast and easy! It also takes the fear out of shredding and grating. I've cut myself way too many times with my old box grater and mandolin — this kitchen gadget is a finger saver. It doesn't hurt that it's dishwasher friendly, too.
