Items made by hand in the home kitchen could be ideal gifts this Christmas, it has been suggested.The effort and time given over to making food-based presents will be much appreciated by friends and family, especially if they suit the recipients tastes or dietary needs, recommends the McClatchy-Tribune.For example, a keen cook on a low-sodium diet might appreciate a tasty salt-free seasoning mix to add flavour to a range of dishes.In addition, someone who enjoys confectionary might like a attractively-presented selection of homemade popcorn. A choice of flavours picked specifically to suit the lucky recipient will make the gift all the more personal.Creating thoughtful gifts in the kitchen can be made all the more enjoyable and rewarding by using a well-made and functional set of kitchen taps, such as a model from the Franke Triflow range, which offers hot, cold and filtered tap water on demand.
