Christmas Gift Guide – 6 Best Vegan Food Gifts

Christmas Gift Guide - 6 Best Vegan Food Gifts

With just a few weeks to go until Christmas, I have compiled several gift guides that I cannot wait to share with you. Below you will find a selection of 6 vegan food gifts, perfect for seasoned vegans or anyone else wanting to embrace more of a plant-based diet.

Sourdough Bread Making Kit

Sourdough Bread Making Kit

Elegantly packaged in a Sous Chef drawstring bag, this is a dream gift for all bread lovers. This Sourdough Bread Making Kit includes a recipe book (How to Make Sourdough by Emmanuel Hadjiandreou),  a 750g loaf round cane banneton, a curved dough scraper, a bread scoring blade and a 1-litre Le Parfait jar to make the starter.

I am completely fascinated with fermentation and tiptoeing into it. Sourdough is one of my favourite breads but until now the prospect of making some from scratch has been quite daunting. I absolutely love the cookbook included in this kit. Emmanuel Hadjiandreou is a renowned bread baker with a real passion for artisan bread. His books includes 45 different recipes from classic sourdough, cultured sourdough, gluten free sourdough to sweet sourdough. Each recipe has a time planner, so handy for people like me who often find themselves pushed for time. There is also a long introduction that explains how to make the starter, which flours to use, as well as how to shape, proof and bake the perfect loaf. Happy baking!

Price: £39.50

Steenbergs Mediterranean Mini 8 Spice Box

Mediterranean Mini 8 Spice Box

I have been a fan of Steenbergs for quite some time. With a passion for organic and fairtrade, they are one of the UK foremost specialists for herbs and spices. I have gifted many of their mini spice boxes over the years as experienced cooks always love discovering new spice blends, while occasional cooks enjoy having small selections to try out.

This Mediterranean Mini 8 Spice Box is a delight for the senses and takes you from Italy to Spain to the Middle East via North Africa. All the flavours in this box blend perfectly in vegetarian and vegan dishes. There is plenty more choice on Steenbergs’ website. If you are looking for a slightly larger gift for a beginner cook or student, I would recommend this Storecupboard Spice Gift Box.

Price: £15.99

Silly Greens

Silly Greens

Freshly picked micro greens and herbs are packed with nutritious goodness and Silly Greens deliver them straight through your letter box. This is an affordable subcription box where you choose the frequency of delivery from once a week to once every six weeks.

Each grow box has herbs and greens which grow to a few inches tall before they are ready to cut and throw onto a plate. Cultivate three different greens at once and set off on a taste discovery with flavours such as rocket wasabi, red amaranth, lemon sorrel, buckwheat etc… The box is long and thin and can easily fit next to a window or on a windowsill.

Healthy foodies will certainly enjoy having this nutritious powerhouse at their fingertips while kids will be fascinated by watching them grow.

Price: £4
