Sur La Table Is Serving Up Family Time This Season! The Best Cooking Gifts & Classes Right Here
by Kate Cartia
From cooking classes to kitchen necessities, Sur La Table is making this season delicious with the best food gifts out there
Loving food and loving Sur La Table go hand-in-hand. After all, for 50 years, Sur La Table has revolutionized how home cooks have stocked their kitchens and has pretty much set the industry’s standard (they were the first West Coast retailer to carry that kitchen staple, the Cuisinart Food Processor, in 1974! They’ve known what’s up for a while.). We head to Sur La Table first thing when we’re on the hunt for kitchen goodies and the best cooking gifts, and with the holidays coming, who isn’t? And now, we’re not only able to prepare our kitchens for the season; we can show off our new tasty talents with Sur La Table cooking classes!
Our shopping list for the Sur La Table sale is right here, along with the classes we’re signing up for to impress our guests this holiday season. We’re talking the best cooking gifts, supplies, and the perfect way to learn everything we’ve ever wanted to know about creating fantastic food. It also doesn’t hurt that they’re featuring sales up to 60% off, so you know it’s a great time to get your holiday shopping started (and possibly done?)! Maybe our Love Language is cooking…or eating. Yeah, it’s probably eating.
Online Freeze & Bake Appetizers Class
Our Thanksgiving is about to get even tastier (and arguably easier) thanks to this one! Learn to create Baked Brie en Croute with Apricot Jam, Honey Mustard-Prosciutto Palmier, and Italian Sausage Stuffed Mushrooms (no, seriously. You'll be able to make this stuff.). All three of these dishes freeze beautifully for make-ahead prep, and each one also has an easy vegetarian option. You really can please everyone this year!
They had us at "salted caramel". Get ready to have the place of honor on the dessert table with this gorgeous lattice-top pie! This class teaches both pie crust technique as well as how to create the filling and lattice work. Honestly, you might want to go ahead and make more than one after you've perfected it. The chances of ever having leftovers are almost non-existent.
Online Prep Now, Eat Later: Homemade Lasagna Class
Combine the holiday season with your everyday schedule and you have a time balancing act. We know you can do it, but we're also all for making it easier. Enter this saves-the-day weeknight dinner class! Homemade lasagna, made from scratch, that tastes just like home and is perfect for chilly weather that you can make now and pop in the fridge to be baked later. Crafted from parmesan Bechamel, homemade lasagna noodles, and Italian sausage or mushroom red sauce, it's love on a plate after a busy day!
Are you more of an in-person learner? Looking for some family time? Sur La Table's got you. Their in-store class offerings include the Holiday Cookie Decorating Class, an all-ages class that teaches sugar cookie and gingerbread cookie decorating (plus, you get the recipes!). Head over to the link to select your location and find class times that are closest to you!
If you've always wanted to be the house that smells like freshly-baked bread over the holidays, you knead to check out this workshop! Raspberry Snowflake Pull-Apart Wreath and Chocolate Hazelnut Babka are both covered, and this two-hour class gives you the skills to recreate them at home!
If you're creating all that fantastic food, you'll want a fun place to put it, right? These appetizer plates from Sur La Table are Thanksgiving-ready, dishwasher-safe, and beautiful, of course! We suggest grabbing two or more sets depending on the number of guests you're expecting for dinner.
Cast iron is a must-have for the kitchen. It heats evenly, is oven-safe up to 500°, and makes an incredible gift for serious and amateur chefs alike! It includes two Dutch ovens and a 10" skillet, so the possibilities are endless. Plus, this set is on sale for an amazing price, so snap it up fast!
You just learned the skills to make the most divine pies; now make sure you have the perfect dish to make them at home. The Emilie Henry Pie Dish is crafted from Burgundy clay that heats evenly, cooks gently, and is so durable it can go from a hot oven to the freezer immediately. It's chip-proof, can be cut into directly when serving, and is incredibly easy to clean. This is no run-of-the-mill pie dish!
It's that time of year! In addition to 14 stainless steel cookie cutters, you get 10 pastry bags, four stainless steel tips, one icing scribe, one 4" offset spatula, and one coupler. That's enough to make anyone feel like a pro! (And these cookie cutters aren't just for the holidays! You'll be able to create fun treats all year with this selection.)
We are completely in love with the Sur La Table collection of handcrafted artisan ornaments. These beautiful ornaments are unique and definitely ready to make your home sparkle. Whether you (or a loved one) are a cocktail lover, a chef, or just appreciate whimsical goodies, there's a huge selection for everyone on your list!
