The aroma of fresh-baked bread. The sweetness of fudge. And the flavor of homemade chutney. These can be among the most welcome of holiday gifts.

If you have a favorite gift from your kitchen, we would like to hear about it. We are looking for a range of food- gift ideas - sauces, tea blends, breads, candies and more that can be made in a fairly short time. We will print the best recipes in early December.

Please send recipes along with your name and daytime phone number by Nov. 15 to Liz Atwood, Baltimore Sun, 501 N. Calvert St., Baltimore MD 21278, or e-mail to food@baltsun.com or fax to 410-783-2519.
