Ramekins FAQs

What is the difference between a bowl and a ramekin?

While both serve as vessels for food, ramekins are typically smaller and more shallow than bowls. Ramekins are designed for individual servings and often have straighter sides compared to the broader, deeper design of bowls.

Why do you put ramekins in water?

Placing ramekins in a water bath, known as a bain-marie, helps regulate the temperature during baking. It prevents the edges of delicate dishes, like custards, from curdling or cracking due to excessive heat.

Can you put ramekins straight in the oven?

Absolutely! Ramekins are designed to withstand oven temperatures. Just make sure to check if your ramekin is labelled as oven-safe.
