Progressive International Porcelain Stacking Ramekins Review

I wanted some small ramekins and these stackable ones caught my attention because the larger ones I have don't stack well making them a total pain to store. These ramekins stack very straight and securely. If a larger stackable size becomes available I'll get those and donate the ones I have to Goodwill.

This smaller size is perfect for individual dips, sauces, au jus, nuts and to store small amounts of leftovers. I also prefer this smaller size for super rich desserts such as crème brûlée and my favorite recipe for a sinful, death-by-chocolate mousse. For some odd reason it isn't indicated in the description that these ramekins are oven and microwave safe. The package indicates they are and I've used them both in my oven and microwave with no problems.

Pillivuyt Porcelain 1-1/2-Cup, 4-Inch Deep Classic Pleated Souffle Dish Review

The4-inch diameter Pillivuyt souffle dishes are perfect for individual savory or dessert souffles, but they have many other uses as well, from mise en place in the kitchen to holding grated cheese or condiments on the table. Pillivuyt quality is very high -- you can tell at a glance that these are not cheaply made.

Note that there are two 4-inch diameter Pillivuyt pleated souffles, but at present the Amazon descriptions do not accurately distinguish them. The "deep classic" souffle is 2.5 inches high and holds 1.5 cups (12 oz), whereas the "classic" souffle is 2 inches deep and holds 1.25 cups (10 oz).

Here is a tip that you may find useful: the dark blue plastic lids from 12 oz (and 12.5 oz) canisters of Planters peanuts fit both of these 4-inch diameter) souffles perfectly.
