10 Culinary Gift Ideas for Men
1. Vacuum Wine Stopper
Wine that has been open for too long or is poorly sealed tastes awful. A vacuum stopper can quickly remedy this, as it ensures longer and better storage of the wine. The perfect Christmas gift for all men who prefer wine to beer.
2. Professional cocktail set
With a cocktail set, you can mix the most unusual cocktails. You can conjure up a creamy, fruity Caribbean feeling as well as tried-and-tested classics in no time at all. Great for the relaxed getting-to-know-you phase. Tip: Why not try a delicious non-alcoholic version?
3. Smoothie maker to go
The “Handmixer to go” from “WMF” can be filled with fresh fruit and vegetables, which can be transformed into a freshly blended smoothie anywhere, wirelessly and at the touch of a button. An ideal Christmas gift for men who don't want to miss out on healthy eating when they're on the go or at work.
4. For kombucha fans
The Noma Handbook - Fermentation: Fermented foods and drinks such as kombucha, miso, and kimchi are becoming increasingly popular. No wonder, because fermented foods are not only healthy and beneficial, but also really delicious. You can ferment most things yourself at home, easily and without many tools. Fermenting kombucha tea can be an exciting joint project.
5. Stay Home Menus
As we all know, there's no place like home. That's why you'll find a wide range of ideas for the home in our Christmas gifts for men. How about a sophisticated “Stay Home Menu,” for example? After the first few meetings, it's a nice way to get to know each other better.
Some suppliers and restaurants send boxes with all the ingredients and the corresponding recipe. This makes it easy to prepare high-quality, carefully selected 4-course menus at home with the help of an accompanying video tutorial. Serving tips are included free of charge.
6. For wine lovers
A good introduction to the world of wine is the book “Grundkurs Wein” (Basic Wine Course) by Jens Priewe. From grape varieties and storage to the most popular types of wine, it covers everything a wine lover needs to know. And it's a great topic for your first evenings together.
7. Wine tasting at home
Once you've successfully entered the world of wine, the best way to apply what you've learned is to put it into practice at home. In online wine tastings, such as those offered by “Gerharz Weinerlebnisse,” you will be taken on a journey of taste while still sitting comfortably in your living room. The selected wines are simply delivered to your home and tasted together online. A wine tasting at home is sure to be a very special Christmas gift. They are also a wonderful way to get to know each other for the first time.
8. Air Up water bottle
If you prefer water to wine, you've come to the right place! Because you don't have to forego a taste experience with water either. We taste mainly with our nose. Air Up takes advantage of this and uses attachments with natural fragrances. These convey to our brain that we are tasting what we smell. In other words, drinking enough water has never been so easy and varied.
9. A5 water bottle
Drinking water doesn't always have to be an experience, of course, but it helps when something so important can be easily integrated into everyday life. The Memobottle in a practical A5 format is flat and fits perfectly in any briefcase.
10. Soul food in a class of its own
Refined dishes don't always have to be complicated. “Downtime” proves that even seemingly simple fare can be transformed into something very special. This Christmas gift for men is definitely a very special insider tip.
