Top 5 Cooking Gifts
1) Classic & Spicy Salt Blend Duo

The salt blend duo set features Sel Magique's classic and spicy blends. All of their products are sustainably produced, hand-harvested, and batch-blended. The naturally high mineral content makes these salts incredibly flavorful in small amounts. Use on vegetables, meats, salads and more.
2) Artisanal Citrus Juicer

Verve Culture: Artisanal Citrus Juicer - Regular - Gold
3) Angurello Watermelon Slicer & Server

Welcome to your new role as a super watermelon slicer, thanks to this clever tool. With one easy motion, Angurello neatly slices, lifts, and serves perfect watermelon pieces. And it does it with less mess, less hassle, and less waste. All of the juice is left behind in the rind, keeping your hands—and the counter—clean.
4) Cross-Back Denim Apron

This denim apron takes a utilitarian approach to keeping you clean in the kitchen. Pure cotton denim is the aprons’ durable base, and there are perfectly-sized pockets for a notebook and pens. The cross-back construction opens up your range of motion and, because it doesn’t tie around the neck, it creates less stress there during long baking sessions.
5) French Butter Crock
