Top 5 Cooking Gifts
1) Turkey & Chicken Roasting Frame
This roasting rack for turkey and chicken leaves white meat—the healthiest part—tender and juicy, while keeping the bird out of the oil at the bottom of the pan. The unique “upside down” self-basting design lets juices flow inside, keeping meat moist while also reducing cooking time.
2) Original Round Cutting Board
The wood from this self-healing, end grain cutting board is harvested and assembled in a small, Nova Scotia mill. They cut it to expose the intricate patterns and gradients of the growth rings. But besides the aesthetic benefits, the fibers are lined vertically to close and heal after you’ve cut them. That keeps knives sharper and your board cleaner. It even has rubber feet to prevent moisture from getting trapped. With proper care and seasoning, this heirloom Larch Wood board will last you a lifetime.
3) Bowl Grater & Premium Classic Zester
Microplane: Bowl Grater & Premium Classic Zester - Melon
4) Cutting & Serving Board
Words with Boards: Cutting & Serving Board - Chop
5) New England Spice Gift Set
Down east flavors from a spice gift set inspired by (and sourced from) New England. The set includes two of Curio Spice Co.’s signature spice blends along with Maine sea salt. It’s all directly sourced from farms and growers to ensure freshness and purity, and comes with recipe cards to help you get cooking.
