Gifts for The Self-Proclaimed Chef

The Essentials - Dumpling Tools

This is a great gift for anyone who takes pride in doing things the hard way—like folding thirty dumplings by hand just to say they did. It’s easy to use, fun to break out at dinner parties, and something they’d never think to buy for themselves.

Luxe Little Spoonfuls Caviar Ornament

A small, funny gift for the person who makes caviar sound like a lifestyle choice. It sparkles on the tree and gives rich bitch energy without feeling too kitschy.

Essential Knife Set

A full upgrade for anyone who insists they can tell the difference between a serrated and a Santoku. They’ll open it and immediately start slicing things, just because they can.

French Fries Cufflinks

For the guy who loves a gag but still appreciates good design. These are funny but still sleek enough for a dress shirt, which makes them a surprisingly thoughtful little gift.

Electric Salt & Pepper Grinder

An easy win for any home cook who loves a gadget. It seasons with one touch, which means they can multitask without pausing to twist and grind.

Heritage Extra Virgin Olive Oil

A bottle of this is basically a love letter to anyone who cooks. It’s peppery, rich, and comes in packaging that looks like it belongs in an art gallery. Great for drizzling, dipping, or just sitting beautifully on their counter.

Briny Olive Bag Charm

A small but clever gift for the person who has everything—including opinions about martinis.

Non-Stick Bakeware Set

When someone is the dedicated baker in the group, they deserve a setup that reflects their skills.

The MK Free Cutting Board

A smart gift for anyone who loves the feel of plastic boards but wants something better. It’s completely plastic-free but still dishwasher-safe and it cleans just as easily. Something they’d never buy themselves, but will thank you for every day.

Hybrid Nonstick 8-Inch Frying Pan

The one pan that can handle whatever they throw at it, as proven by Bethenny’s own experiments with Supermodel Snacks. It heats evenly, releases food easily, and looks good enough to leave on the stove. (But only an animal would do that.)

Marble Salt Cellar With Lid

Every cook has that one ingredient they reach for constantly. For most, it’s salt. This little cellar keeps it within arm’s reach and makes the counter look put-together without trying.

Sous Vide Precision Cooker Nano 2.0

This one’s for the perfectionist. Every steak, every egg, and every piece of salmon comes out exactly right. Once they use it, there’s no going back.

Wonder Oven

Bethenny's go-to air fryer can do it all—and looks good doing it. Heat up leftovers, whip up frozen snacks, or bake a full meal without ever turning on your big oven.

Caviar Set With Shell Spoons

This is elegant, a little dramatic, and very specific—which is why it’s perfect. They’ll break it out every time guests come over, even when there’s no caviar in sight.

Karu 12 Multi-Fuel Outdoor Pizza Oven

There’s always one person who insists they can make better pizza than anywhere in town. This is the only gift they’ll admit proves them right. It’s fast, easy to use, and turns any backyard into a full-blown pizzeria.

Coffee Scoop Set of 2

Not every gift has to reinvent their kitchen. This one just makes their morning feel a little more bougie.

Smash Burger Press

A fun gift for anyone who claims their burgers are better than In-N-Out. It flattens patties perfectly for those crispy, charred edges.

Meat Chopper

No more chopping meat like an animal. This gift is inexpensive, useful, and guaranteed to be the thing they won’t stop talking about.

Cast Iron Conditioner

If they treat their cast iron like a pet, this is the gift. It keeps pans seasoned and shiny without weird residue or chemicals. Use code THELIST25 for 25% off.
