Prep Bowls for the Chef in Your Life

A chef, whether they are a professional or a home chef, needs an assortment of mixing bowls to prepare, mix, and serve their dishes in. The ceramic construction provides ample support for even the heaviest batters. Preparation bowls are an essential part of any kitchen as few recipes can be prepared directly on the stovetop with no prior preparation. Of course roasts and full meals made in a clay baker or roasting pan is a different story entirely.

Reco Ceramic Prep Bowls

Do you know an avid chef or home cook that needs or is always looking for their mixing bowls, or bowls in general? Maybe you do this yourself. A simple set of Reco ceramic mixing bowls can alleviate a good portion of scrambling to find a bowl when needed. The small bowl is perfect for simple omelets or small portions of ingredients to be used later in a recipe such as the final spices and glaze to be added to a pork roast or the flour used to thicken a sauce at its final stages. It can also double as a dipping sauce service bowl or for appetizers on a buffet for your holiday parties.

A good practice in preparing omelets is to have the eggs at room temperature prior to placing them in the sauté pan or sauce pan for cooking. Use another bowl of the set to easily hold half a dozen eggs when you arise on a Sunday morning in preparation for a brunch. Your favorite chef will not need additional help in their kitchen. All of the ingredients can be placed in their own prep bowl and be ready at a moment’s notice. The Reco 4 piece ceramic prep bowl set is perfect for use in the oven, microwave and freezer; one of the best aspects of ceramic cookware.

Ceramics are known for their heat reflection which helps to direct the heat of the oven or microwave into the food and not the cookware. With this set a chef or cook can prepare the dish and cook it in the same piece of cookware/prep ware. This can drastically help an individual with limited space in their kitchen. In addition their versatility makes them a great gift for newly weds and first time cooks alike. Serve beautiful fruit salads in the large deep bowl or use it to let your best holiday bread rise to perfection.

An accompanying lid/saucer adds a touch of presentation when used in service. It can double as a tray for a vegetable platter or for home made tortillas. As with the rest of the set the lid/saucer is oven, microwave, dishwasher and freezer safe. The saucer could be heated in the oven to keep dishes warmed while being served and placed directly in the dishwasher after the meal is finished, because we are far to busy to wash by hand during the holidays. Or for the left-overs cover and place directly in the refrigerator. Use it as a lid and seal in the heat during cooking locking in the natural juices of the entrée.
