Best food preservation gifts for St. Croix County friends

Webp 10edited

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) 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.

2) 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.

3) Rambler Pizza Oven, Grill & Fire Pit
Hot Ash Stove: Rambler & Rover Accessories

4) Lid Latch
Mella: Lid Latch - Blue/Grey (2 Pack)

5) Butter Dish & Toast Tongs Set
This countertop butter dish neatly stores butter at room temperature, keeping it spreadable without sacrificing any of its fresh flavor. The flip-top lid blocks exposure to light and air, while a built-in knife rest keeps the included spreader off the counter. There’s even a hidden ridge to scrape the spreader (or a knife) clean on. Use the serrated grip tongs to grab toasted items or to push and pull your oven rack to avoid burning your fingers.
