Local Brewery swag

cooking classes

Check out a knife skills class.

Always wanted to learn how to make killer paella, gain an introduction to preparing Indian food, know how to pair wine and cheese or even cook well on a budget? Several organizations around Boston offer a range of cooking classes that can teach you just such skills. Check out the Boston Center for Adult Education or the Cambridge School of Culinary Arts. There may even be side benefits to giving a friend a class: you get to experience when they invite you over for dinner.

fermentation tools

Sauerkraut in progress.

Home-fermented foods are delicious, and making them at home offers a fun opportunity to experiment. Beautify the process with a fermentation crock made by Jeremy Ogusky, a Jamaica Plain based potter. His handmade crocks are perfect for batches of fermented veggies, and include a weight with a handle, so the fermenter in your life won’t have to go scrambling for a ceramic plate that’s just the right size to weigh down their cabbage on its journey to becoming sauerkraut.

Scoop up a copy of Sandor Katz’s Wild Fermentation or other guide to the wild world of live cultures at one of the Boston area’s great independent bookshops, like Brookline Booksmith, Porter Square BooksJabberwocky Bookstore in Newburyport or the New England Mobile Book Fair.

 

meat and fish

Ground beef prepped for use in shepherd's pie.

Connect the carnivore in your life with local meat and fish. Walden Local Meat Company of Billerica, MA offers customizable meat shares that include a mix of beef, pork, lamb and poultry. Each cut can be traced to the farm where the animal was raised, and they offer a variety of share sizes.

Share the bounty of New England’s waters with a gift certificate to Cape Anne Fresh Catch, based in Gloucester, MA. Gift certificates are available for purchase online, and can be applied to whole fish or fish filet shares.
