    you guys should do a video where you challenge ebbers and kush, to try to re-create a dish from a blind taste test, and have a normal judge which one is closest to the original dish, OR you get some food delivered to you and the chefs have to try and re create it and then the normals try and guess which is the delivery.

    For someone who is just learning how to cook, I would say that the best gift is a "mini spice rack". An ounce or two of 20 or so spices--some basic, some a little further from the usual--is a perfect way to introduce someone to a wide range of cooking without getting extravagant or having it be intimidating.The spices can be cheap. Let them learn what each one does, and then they can go buy better selections of the ones they use the most.

      I kinda disagree just in the fact that Ikea plastic tongs are too good for 99.9% of applications, and effectively free (maybe could wear out in a decade, but otherwise like 50 cents)
      I've had the typical silicone and metal tongs and tweezers, and they are useful, but always a bit awkward if you start to use them for something they aren't designed to do. if you're not grilling, the medium size of Ikeas tongs are too perfect for basically every kitchen task, and no worry about using them on non-stick (work as a makeshift pair of chopsticks as well)

    As a woman from South Louisiana (age 67) we have a long tradition of making food, wrapping it nicely, and hand delivering it to nearby family and friends for Christmas. Commonly: a vast array decorated cookies, fudge (with or without chopped pecans), chocolate-dipped candied dried fruit (ginger is a favorite), Creole or Cajun spice blends, flavored vinegars or oils (big fan of garlic infused oil or basil infused white wine vinegar), home-canned pickled vegetables, and of course our infamous pralines.

    I have Braun Multiquick 9 for a very long time now and during these years gifted already 3 of them, everyone loves them so much. You forgot to mention that this set has a potato masher which helps a lot on almost daily basis if you like mash - potato, cauliflower, beetroot and carrot worked well for me. I would advice to search for a set specifically with it, the one with ice crusher did not look that useful, so pay attention to that. For those with little children, it's so easy to use it together with little ones while they learn cooking, because of the safety button it's super safe.
    Disadvantage: that small blender thing is not so small, when trying to make portioned baby food or small portions, I preferred the size of Multiquick 3, tbh, for a family of 2. Also, It does take a lot of space, but much less if all gadgets were seperate.

    Normal tongs that open wider than tweezers are useful for things like mixing salads, mixing pasta in a pan, that sort of thing.

    The thing about those tongs is that it has a much finer tip than the standard tongs they compared it to.

    I like the tongs but my family just uses chopsticks for things that you would use thin tongs for... Every year for the last 4 years, I bake and gift Christmas cookies / the hard part is that I have to make 5 dozen because they get picked at by family members before i can give them to the inteneded recipients. So if you are making food for gift, make extras for the crows in your household who steal food when your back is turned.

      And I'm suggesting the Czech houbový kuba (barley & dried mushroom dish). I think it's one that would introduce something different to the mix, and might be well-worth trying - a friend from New Zealand tried it when visiting this year, and while the version we chanced upon in a restaurant definitely wasn't the best it could be (coupled with the fact it was about 30 degrees Celsius which isn't the best time to be eating a winter dish...), she still said it's something she'd like to try at home. 🙂

When I finally felt well enough to watch something as a bit of a distraction, I found FIVE Sorted videos waiting for me! I had no clue the video-a-day thing was happening, so it was quite a shock, but I cannot explain how happy it made me. I spent a solid two hours just smiling, watching you all joke around and have fun (it really seems like there's been more relaxed fun, and less behind-the-scenes stress lately, which is fantastic!). It was that stereotype of my cheeks starting to hurt from grinning so long. You've brought some happiness to someone who's been miserable for awhile, so thank you for that!! Makes the wait for Snow Way Out easier to bear, too 😂

    I like practical gifts. Last Christmas I gifted my work colleagues with "thermal eraser + cutter" - looks like a thick pen, with one end that has a tiny retractable cutter to open packages, and the other end has a stamp with a sort of alcohol ink that erases receipts and shipping labels. They all loved it.

    I am always a fan of cookery books. They are a snapshot of culture in time. One of my favourites will always be 'Clara's Kitchen: Wisdom, Memories and Recipes from the Great Depression'. From poverty cooking you can see some modern connotations.
    Having said that I have added the Braun MultiQuick to my Christmas list as I always break the cheaper ones!

    My favorite gift along the lines of the fermented gifts from Ebbers and Kush is a cookie or cake mix in a jar... i layer the dry ingredients in a jar parfait -style (smooth dry ingredients layered with chunky dry ingredients, i.e., nuts and chocolate chips for traditional toll house cookies in between the flower mix, brown and white sugars), print a decorative card with wet ingredients and baking instructions. It's a bit of love from my kitchen to my friends.

  • @keviny1936

    My best foodie gift this year was a digital cookbook that I can add recipes to when I come across them. Also useful as we were able to take recipes from multiple generations of the families and have them in one place. Can't lose or misplace a recipe, search on country, type of dish, main ingredients, name. Syncs between multiple devices. Best of all you can pass a digital form of your cookbook to someone else who has the same program.

    I know for myself the cooking / food gift that I personally am over the moon about is a great mortar and pestle. Being born and raised in Puerto Rico, the mortar and pestle (what we affectionately know as a pilon) is a kitchen staple that serves multiple uses from mixing dry herbs or crushing garlic, to molding mofongo to its iconic shape, and more.
    My mother has had the same pilon for 30+ years, and when my husband and I moved into our first home she bought me my very own for our home to pass our family recipes and traditions from her to me. It meant the world. ❤
