Everyone knows someone who LOVES food. But where can you find dazzling gifts even they have never seen before? Inside this catalogue, discover 50 pages of stunning ideas. Each section jets you off to a different part of the world - with so many amazing gifts you won’t see anywhere else. I know, because my small team and I have scoured the globe to bring you these little-known gift ideas. We have done the searching, tasting and testing for you. We travelled from the leafy olive groves of Puglia, Italy, to bustling backstreet ramen bars of Tokyo, Japan. We work closely with the families and small producers who create these luxury items. Each gift in this catalogue has been rigorously tested before approval. Less than 15% of the products we review pass our extraordinarily high bar for quality. So whether you’re buying for yourself or anyone else, I’m certain you’ll find something here that ‘wows’! Happy cooking

Chef Gadgets FOR THE FASTEST SEAR & CRISPIEST SKIN
The Chef’s Press is a stainless steel cooking weight, designed and made in California by chef Bruce Hill. What’s the secret? Pressing food against a hot pan increases the surface heat, and speeds up cooking. Vents allow steam to escape, so everything stays crispy! And you can stack them to increase the pressure. You’ll love it for razor sharp char-lines on asparagus. Ultra-quick cooked broccoli and long peppers - even on the BBQ. Proper American-style grilled cheese sandwiches. Gorgeous crispy fish skin. Or shatteringly caramelised steaks.

FOR THE BEST SOURDOUGH: YOUR PROFESSIONAL STEAM OVEN AT HOME Introducing the Spring Oven. One of the hardest things is getting that ‘sourdough spring’. You need two things to achieve it: high heat and steam. But keeping steam in a standard oven can be a challenge and often has a cooling effect. Patrick Kendal designed The Spring Oven to bake the best possible loaf at home - without a professional steam-injection oven.

Instead of cutting against the grain you cut with the grain, so there is less damage to your board and knife. Your knife and chopping board will stay in pristine condition for longer. Teak wood also has a naturally high oil content - a built-in natural water repellent. The New York Times named it their top wooden board in 2023: ‘The boards feel good under a knife, and they stood up to many sharp cuts and dark stains better than the competition’

Sweet Treats
Sous Chef Panettone This year we’ve asked one of our favourite bakeries to create a special Sous Chef panettone. When I visited Italy in early summer, the family-run bakery was silent. Baking starts in September for Christmas, and so only a few were at work. Yet one thing needs daily attention – the mother. With reverence, I was led to ‘the treasure room’. I peered through two walls of reinforced glass. A giant metal bowl in the distance, topped with a huge dome of smooth creamy dough. This was the mother.
28
‘What is the difference between your panettoni?’, I’ll often ask luxury producers. The answer is always the same... the mother. It’s the secret to their signature texture and creates tearable soft strips.
They’ve combined it with the best ingredients. A high butter percentage. Free-range eggs, of course. Aromatic and juicy citrus fruit. Slow-proved, baked, and finally wrapped by hand.
This mother is only allowed three authorised visitors. No-one else is permitted through the locked door. A grandmother is secured in a local bank vault. Nothing is left to chance…
The luxury printed paper is inspired by the ingredients inside the panettone: wheat, lemons and grapes. Nicola, Sous Chef Founder
And so the precious mother – close to 100 years old – has been baked into a panettone just for Sous Chef.

The Makers The Loison family has been making panettone for over 75 years – and you can tell they’re masters of their craft. We’ve hand selected our favourite panettone from their range for 2023. Loison’s innovative flavour combinations always introduce something new.
Sicilian makers Fiasconaro use only the best Sicilian ingredients to make their panettone. They are one of Italy’s best known bakers of panettone. Every year, they work with Dolce & Gabbana to create stunning tins – each is a treasure in its own right.
Muzzi has been perfecting their panettone recipe since the 18th century. Their stylish designs set them apart. The golden, buttery Italian panettone are just as stunning as the paper they’re wrapped in. Beautifully flavoured with black cherry, pistachio & pear, and chocolate, each cake is slow-leavened for maximum flavour.
