12 perfect gifts for passionate home cooks, curated by a kitchen tech editor

Looking for a Christmas gift for someone who loves spending time in the kitchen? I’ve got just what you need. I’m TechRadar’s kitchen tech expert, and I’ve put together a list of 12 thoughtful gifts that will brighten their day, and their countertop. Any keen home cook will likely already have all the fundamentals covered, so there’s no need to look at knife blocks, skillets, or food processors. Instead, I’ve curated a selection of items that are small additions to their kitchen, or next-level upgrades to the small tools that get used day after day.

For example, a set of premium metal measuring cups will make baking more of a pleasure, and from a trusted brand like KitchenAid, will likely be more accurate as well.
