Splendid Market Gift Guide for the Kitchen

What cook wouldn’t love to have a fresh Meyers Lemon Tree growing in their kitchen? I love growing citrus in the home, they add life to any room and the fragrance when they blossom is ethereal. Along with the tree, this kit comes with lemon sea salt and lemon & citron jams. Preserved Lemon Kit, Williams-sonoma, $99.

Your favorite cook will enjoy making exotically flavored cozy stews and tender meats with this Le Creuset enameled cast iron Tagine. This one has a cast iron base, so you can brown the meat before cooking. This shapely piece adds a faraway flair to kitchen decor. Le Creuset Tagine, Amazon, $189.95

I used to dread zesting citrus, it would take so long and I often ended up zesting my fingers in the process, then I met this miraculous microplane zester, which allows me to prepare an abundance of zest in minutes, injury free! Microplane 40020 Classic Zester/Grater , Amazon, $12.95

I developed quite a crush on this Nespresso coffee machine when visiting family over Thanksgiving. It is aesthetically pleasing in a subtle retro way. It’s also space efficient, taking up very little counter space for the amount of latte~joy it brings. Nespresso Citiz Machine & Frother, Amazon, $288.00

One of my favorite tools in the kitchen are silicone tipped tongs. I have them in several different lengths, they are great way to manage hot, slippery food from a distance. This pair of Braising Tongs looks great because one side is slotted, for draining, and the other side allows you to scoop liquids. When locked together they’ll be the perfect way to stir the pot. Santa, please??

Cuisipro 12-Inch Silicone Braising Tongs, Red, Amazon, $19.00

An abundance of fresh fruit is the easiest and prettiest display in the kitchen. This interesting piece was hand carved from a wooden beam, it will make a dramatic display on a kitchen island or counter.Vintage Wood Grain Measure, Enchanted Home, $160.00

Little luxuries in the kitchen can make a big difference for a cook. These mitts are constructed from 4 layers of sumptuous navy suede, which provides a perfect barrier from the heat without being overly bulky. I’m looking forward to holding onto mine for years to come. Suede Mitt, Jane Domestic, $25.00

These hand~painted mini display Tagines can be used to serve condiments, storing salt or as a resting spot for jewelry. They’ll bring a exotic foreign accent to any kitchen counter or table. Le Souk Ceramique Aqua Fish Design Set of 4 Mini Tagines Amazon, $40.00
