Food preservation items for eco-friendly kitchens in Rock County

5edited

There’s nothing worse than trying to find a gift for someone and not knowing what to get them.

To take the guesswork out of gift buying, we’ve found practical and helpful gifts for any occasion, sorted by theme to help find everything you are looking for.

Top 5 “Food Preservation” Gifts

1) Foldable Food Storage Box
Uhmm: Foldable Food Storage Box - Light Grey

2) Stoh/Solid Lunch Totes
Insulated, collapsible, and attractive, these environmentally safe lunch totes are the perfect marriage of form and function. The contemporary designs appeal to parents, teens, and toddlers alike. And the structure lets you stack plastic containers or other items, then easily holds the contents upright as you carry them.

3) Manual Food Chopper
This Manual Food Chopper may be mini but when it comes to mixing, spinning, and chopping jobs, it’s pretty mighty. There’s no power needed—just pull the cord to kick start prep work, like spinning rinsed herbs, chopping veggies, or mixing up a dip or guacamole. It’s perfect for small work spaces or if you’re short on outlets. Different inserts are suited for different tasks and a lid lets you top off your dish and take this mixer to go.

4) Guacamole Preservation Container
Usually guac won’t last more than a day without browning. But this guacamole container creates an airtight seal that keeps oxygen out, so it stays green and fresh for days. (It’s great for hummus, salsa, and tzatziki, too.) Push the the container’s base to remove the air, which raises the guac to the top. The push feature comes in handy as you start enjoying the dip—give a press and it lifts the contents to the top and avoids the need to scrape dip off the sides.

5) Artisanal Caramels
The Sweet Jules specialty caramels are made with natural ingredients, nothing artificial. From Minneapolis brewed Town Hall Scotch Ale in the Beer & Pretzel caramel to the chocolate sourced in Switzerland for the Dark Chocolate Pecan, the two sisters have selected special flavorings and created their caramels for the discriminating palate. Truly an artisan product.
