Corto Oil

There’s a reason their extra virgin olive oil is chef-chosen and approved. It’s because they hand-craft their oils to match their use.

La Padella (Pah-dell-ah) is crafted specifically for high-performance sauteing with authentic olive oil character. The "backbone" of La Padella is provided by Rice Ban Oil which delivers a superior high smoke pint, and Fresh Extra Virgin Olive Oil which adds real olive oil flavor and aroma.

What makes Corto different is that they don’t wait until winter when the olives are over-ripe, like other brands do. Instead, they harvest in the fall, when the olives are at the peak of freshness: green, with just a hint of violet. Olives then come to the mill to produce brilliant oil.

They store the oil in a climate-controlled cellar until packaged. They taste-test each batch before packaging it in a proprietary oxygen-free FlavorLock Box. This protects the oil from flavor-damaging light and air to the very last drop.

SassyCups

Review: Got it for my Father in Law on fathers day, he told me he loved it and that it worked better than the thermos he already had. I've seen him use it every day since I got it for him. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a simple gift.

Navaris Magnetic Knife Block

for the dad who likes to cook (& keep a tidy kitchen)

This modern magnet knife holder can help keep any kitchen organized and classy.

Review: Knife storage is excellent. The magnet is very strong, I have eight knives and a pair of scissors hung on it now and they stay perfectly in place on the board. There is still space for a few more. The board takes up very little counter space. The stainless steel base fits in with my stainless appliances. If you don’t want to put holes in the wall to hang a knife rack, or want a bulky knife storage block on your counter, then you need to purchase this product. It also seems well made and study. I highly recommend this item.
