We've done the thinking for you. With the Sous Chef cult ingredients cooking kit. You’ll find ingredients including Acquerello rice, lauded by Heston Blumenthal as the world’s best risotto rice, plus Perello olives that fly off the shelves as quickly as we can replace them. And Forvum Chardonnay vinegar, served not only at Thomas Keller’s French Laundry but also every Nobel Prize winners’ dinner.
The Sous Chef Milano Panettone is a wonderful gift for a teacher on Christmas, offering a taste of authentic Italian tradition and quality. Made by a family of expert bakers in Northern Italy, this award-winning panettone is light, buttery, and filled with sweet dried citrus fruit, making it a delightful treat. Its rich heritage and exquisite flavor show appreciation and thoughtfulness, making it a special way to thank a teacher for their hard work and dedication.
Replace the traditional 'bottle of whisky' with something a little different. The Ninki mini sake barrel is a smaller version of a komodaru or kazaridaru – a straw-wrapped sake barrel that is donated to Shinto shrines to make a decorative display for festivals and ceremonies.
Traditionally these barrels are empty, but thankfully this one isn’t! It contains premium ginjo sake – a high quality sake that is best enjoyed slightly chilled. The Ninki mini sake barrel makes a great gift for sake-lovers and Japanese culture enthusiasts.
Fiasconaro Coffee Cream is a perfect gift for a teacher, offering a touch of luxury and flavor. Made by a family-run company in Sicily, it has a rich coffee taste with a hint of hazelnut. It’s great for spreading on toast, filling chocolates, or drizzling over cakes, making it a versatile and delicious treat. It’s a simple, thoughtful way to show appreciation and give your teacher a moment of enjoyment.
The Ichendorf Milano owl mug is a perfect gift for a teacher because it’s both charming and practical. Handmade from glass, it features a cute owl on the handle and a purple flower inside, making it a lovely piece to brighten up their desk or kitchen.
The comfortable handle and durable design make it easy to use, and since each mug is hand-crafted, it’s a unique, one-of-a-kind gift—just like your teacher. Plus, it’s dishwasher safe, so it’s easy to care for too!
The Karasuba-Iro Japanese ramen bowl set is the set for ramen obsessives!
The gorgeous set contains two Karasuba-Iro ramen bowls, two ramen ladles, and a full colour ramen recipe booklet. All packed together in a Sous Chef gift box.
"Karasuba-iro" means glossy back in Japanese, and the glazed ceramic ramen bowls, have a beautiful glossy black and grey speckled surface. Additional red-brown detailing, and white sweeps add to the elegance of the design. They are dishwasher safe. Each ramen bowl is imported from Japan, and carefully chosen with the perfect size and shape for ramen.
The ramen ingredients set is a must-have for any Japanese ramen fan. We've hand-picked some authentic Japanese ingredients so you can make your best homemade ramen yet.
