But if you've got a bit more wiggle room in your budget, our collection has plenty of gifts to love. From classic cookbooks to Japanese knives, here are some of our favorite holiday gifts for under $100. If you need more inspiration, you'll find a lot more cookware and useful kitchen tools right here in our gift guide.   Great Knives​ Yes, you can find plenty of great knives for under $100. This knife to the left is what Daniel calls his travel knife: a short, sharp blade that he brings with him to friends' kitchens and Airbnbs. (Just be sure not to fly with it!)    A Beautiful Tagine This hand-painted tagine is a gorgeous addition to any cooking arsenal, and a handy piece for making flavorful North African stews that can go straight from the oven to the table. If your giftee's kitchen is already fully outfitted with cookware and you need to find something different and impressive, this is the gift for you.   A Classic Cookbook Part coffee table book, part culinary bible, Mastering the Art of French Cooking is quite simply the perfect gift for anyone who loves food and cooking. Get them this two-volume set, then bookmark a few recipes you want to make together.   The Best Immersion Blender There's so much you can do with an immersion blender, from blitzing up a quick batch of homemade mayo to getting pesky clumps out of gravy. We tested a whole range of immersion blenders, and the All-Clad beat out the competition, with super-sharp blades and a whole lot of power. Luckily for you, it's just under $100.   An Instant-Read Thermometer An instant-read thermometer is another kitchen essential, and we love the ThermoWorks Thermapen for its lightning-fast readings and accuracy. A personal tip: It's the ideal gift for someone who has raw-meat paranoia.
