Does your Valentine love to cook? If you and your sweetheart are foodies who enjoy cooking together, a selection of herbs, spices and other exotic elixirs makes for a fun, romantic and zesty Valentine’s gift.
For romantic occasions I like to combine a variety of hot and spicy flavors with some sweeter items.
And maybe just a touch of chocolate…
Create your own delicious recipe for romance…
The gift of gourmet grocery items is not only romantic, it’s practical and affordable. You can easily put together a lovely selection for under $40.

UPDATED 9/8/2008 WITH NEW COUPON INFORMATION
The other day a chef friend of mine was lamenting that he was having a really hard time getting good duck. He wants whole ducks and also has been searching for smoked duck breast, duck proscuitto, duck sausages and the like. I knew they’d have what he was looking for at igourmet.com
. But even I was impressed with what I found in their butcher shop. Duck is just the beginning. Pheasant. Quail. Organic free range turkeys. Duck confit. Smoked magret of duck. Exotic game sausages. Ostrich tenderloin. Lamb. Wild Boar.
Check it out. It’s a carnivore’s dream. And they’ve got all the fixings, too. From marinades to hard to find ingredients. And recipes, too.
