The holidays are the perfect occasion to offer gifts that tantalize the taste buds. Here are some suggestions for gourmet gifts, ideal for pleasing your loved ones while adding a touch of well-being.
1. Baked Goods in a Jar
Imagine a jar containing all the dry ingredients needed to make brownies, cookies, or muffins. Give the gift of an easy and enjoyable baking experience. For those who prefer a ready-to-give option, Isabelle Huot's mixes are an excellent alternative.
2. Trio of Soups in a Jar
Give the comfort of homemade soup with our unique jar recipes. Layer the dry ingredients in a jar for a pretty presentation. Just add the liquid ingredients when cooking. Choose from our countryside soup, curry and lentils, or mushroom and barley for a warm and practical gift.
3. Garnished Cutting Board
A reusable wooden board, elegantly adorned with charcuterie, local cheeses, fruits, nuts, and olives. A gift that is both delicious and aesthetic, perfect for a festive aperitif. Our mezze platter can also be a great source of inspiration.
4. Quality Oils
For a gift that adds a note of refinement to everyday cooking, consider the oils from Maison Orphée and Ferme Tournevent. Besides their exquisite taste, these oils are presented in elegant bottles, making them both practical and aesthetically pleasing host gifts.
5. Boreal-Origin Products
Discover the unique flavours of boreal products. Choose from the delights of Gourmet Sauvage, Kwe Cocktails syrups, Racines boréales products, or Dunord creations for an authentically Canadian gift.
6. Tea or Infusion Sets
Select teas and infusions for a soothing gift. Ideal for quiet evenings, each cup offers a relaxing and wellness experience.
7. Jams, Chutneys, and More
Offer jams made from local fruits, like haskap berry jam or other exquisite chutneys. These delights can be homemade or purchased, adding a sweet and original touch to meals.
8. Assortment of Seeds for Gardening
For gardening enthusiasts, a set of seeds to grow aromatic herbs or vegetables. We're fans of the ancestral seed sets from the Nutritionniste urbain!
9. International Cuisine Kits
Why not give a complete set to create an authentic Spanish paella? Some kits available online include the paella pan, rice, spices, and even a small preparation guide. Other options include sushi kits or a spice mix for curry.
10. Themed Recipe Books
A cookbook can be an invaluable source of inspiration, offering recipes tailored to specific appliances like the Air Fryer or slow cooker, or exploring world cuisines like Korean or Thai. It's a great way to discover new flavours and stimulate mealtime creativity throughout the year.
