Five Star Gift Ideas

How about getting your boyfriend a fermentation kit as an anniversary gift? This would be the perfect way to support his love for fermenting and pickling, while also showing that you pay attention to his interests.

A fermentation kit typically includes all the necessary tools and ingredients for the fermenting process. It usually consists of glass jars or crocks, airlocks, weights, and detailed instructions. With this kit, your boyfriend can easily ferment various vegetables and even experiment with making his own sauerkraut, kimchi, pickles, or kombucha at home.

Another idea is to look for specialized jars or containers designed specifically for fermenting. These containers often have features like airlocks or pressure release valves to allow for carbon dioxide to escape during the fermentation process while keeping out any harmful bacteria. You could even find a set of different sized jars to accommodate various fermenting projects simultaneously.

If your boyfriend already has all the basic tools, you can consider expanding his knowledge and skillset by giving him a book on fermentation or pickling. There are many great options available, such as "The Art of Fermentation" by Sandor Ellix Katz or "Fermented Vegetables" by Kirsten K. Shockey and Christopher Shockey. These books provide in-depth information, recipes, and techniques that will help him explore new flavors and ideas for fermenting.

Additionally, you could surprise him with a subscription to a fermentation or pickling club. There are online subscription services that deliver a curated selection of fermented foods and pickled delicacies from around the world right to your doorstep. This can be a fun and educational experience for your boyfriend, allowing him to try new and unique fermented products while expanding his palate.

Lastly, if your boyfriend enjoys hands-on experiences, you could organize a fermentation or pickling workshop for the two of you to attend together. This could be a cooking class, a workshop at a local farm, or even a private session with an expert. Not only will you both enjoy learning new skills, but it will also create lasting memories and strengthen your bond as a couple.

Overall, no matter which gift you choose, your boyfriend will appreciate the thoughtful gesture and the recognition of his passion for fermenting and pickling. It shows that you support his hobbies and interests, and that you are willing to encourage his culinary adventures.

Or you can get him a star map with the date of your anniversary.
