Peppermate pepper grinder. Immersion blender.

Two excellent recommendations Gris Gris. My Peppermate grinder has ruled the roost for years now, except for another which creates really coarse grinds for salads which my Peppermate cannot.

A stick blender is another brilliant gift idea because it's a tool that folks don't generally purchase for themselves, but they're an incredible kitchen tool for when the time beckons. I would have never thought to have purchased this item, inherited one, and now couldn't do without it.

Another idea could be a mortar and pestle set.

Cutlery and More Black Friday

Get them a decent knife if they don’t already have one.

Yesterday I was chopping onions and my knives are all dull.. Sends me to the moon...

Any ideas for a cheap good knife sharpener?

Does yours not have the adjustment on it so you can go from fine to coarse or is it not as coarse as you prefer? Mine grinds pretty coarse if I want that texture.

My Mom has three of them that I'm sure are from at least the early 80's. Still going strong.
