Excellent gift discussion, comrades. Thank you!
Let me try this out on you, though. Let's say you said to me "I lost my favorite cast iron pan," and I said "Look! To replace it, I bought you this awesome nostick microcoated ultralight polymer chafing dish!" or "This antique ash-heated clay warming sphere!"
Wouldn't you be like, "Frac, that is so awesome. Now all I need to be happy is a cast iron pan."
I agree that the mortar and pestle is both beautiful and superior in action. I only fear it would be puzzling as a replacement for a garlic press.
Although maybe a whole different category of object is a good idea. Then you can't get the Wrong One.
It's all so confusing. Me, I use the flat side of a knife.
!
I suppose I could get him a nice knife. Hmm. Possible.
