An ancient 'superfood' sent from heaven
Most foodies will also be fans of a tasty espresso from time to time. One of these machines is sure to make their lives a lot easier.
If you're a keen operator in the kitchen, then you know the struggle of not having enough chopping boards. You basically can never have too many.
The George Foreman Grill brought these into popularity and highlighted how useful they are. They're great for grilling steaks, veggies, sandwiches–the list goes on!
They like food, so they probably like tea and coffee, too. Get them a self-heating mug so when they get distracted from their hot bevy for a few minutes, they can return to it just as warm as they left it.
Convection ovens cook about 25% faster than conventional ovens. Air circulates and the outside cooks faster and browns more evenly, leaving the interior still juicy.
Most people use shakers for their salt and pepper, but if you want to get them something small and neat that they can impress guests with during dinner parties, try some fancy bowls.
The great thing about coasters is that they'll more or less always be used and you can choose some that are personal for your friend. Maybe they're made of tiles from your city, for example.
It might sound simple, but aprons can be expensive. Leather ones can cost a small fortune. They can be personal, and they can last a lifetime.
You can never have enough of these either. They can be personalized, too. They get old quick, so they're handy to have.
These are super handy for cooking meats or veggies. They allow you to create a char almost like you would with a barbecue.
Sure, they could lean it against something, but it's a lot better to have a stand so it can be left open on the page they need it at. It's like having a calendar on the wall.
These aren't just handy for the beginner who hasn't quite nailed their knife skills, but also super handy for the seasoned chef. They're just a fast way of slicing food ultra-thin.
You don't have to be Italian to appreciate this one. It's not completely necessary, but makes the process of making tagliatelle a lot faster!
These two dressings are a must-have at any table, especially if the table is decorated with Mediterranean dishes. And we all know the good stuff doesn't come cheap!
You probably considered a cookbook already, so this is just a pleasant reminder. Foodies can never have enough recipes. Even if they don't make all of them, they'll like flicking through.
There's an endless world of handy instruments that make life in the kitchen a dream come true. Why not consider something that will come in use?
You could get them some special tea or you could get them the instruments so they can blend their own tea.
If your friend is a serious foodie, then there's a good chance that they will enjoy some fresh herbs or plants that they can harvest.
If there's anything that makes a Sunday meal a lot tastier and a lot easier, it's one of these. It makes slow-roasting 100 times easier and 100 times tastier, too.
This is a fabulous idea for those who are a little more conscious about their health.
Finally, if they cook quite a lot and have been talking about a restaurant they want to visit, why not just get them a voucher for it?

If the person you're considering buying for is a fan of hot sauce, then they will be delighted with a subscription for hot sauces to be delivered every month.
If they're being used a lot, knives get blunt and need to be sharpened. Eventually, though, they're better off being replaced. Consider getting them one amazing knife instead of a set of average ones.
This is one of those items that everyone who cooks wants but just never gets around to getting for themselves.
Toasters get old and shabby-looking after a few years. A fancy toaster is not something you would think to get yourself, so your foodie friend is sure to be delighted with it.
There are endless recipes that are usually avoided when one of these gadgets isn't close to hand. These are a little pricier, but sure to be appreciated.
