How to choose a bowl for cooking

Recommended shapes and designs

First of all, it is recommended that the bottom of the bowl be flat and wide so that it is more stable and easier to use. If the depth is too deep, it will be difficult to use, so you do not need to ask for that much depth.

The thing which is piled up with a colander is convenient!

When preparing the bowl, it is recommended that the colander be prepared in the same series or set! The same series can be stacked perfectly, so it is convenient to use the bowl and colander as a set when draining water, and it can also be stored neatly when stored.

Recommended size

The size of the bowl you want to have depends on your family structure and what kind of dishes you make. For example, if you live alone, it would be sufficient to have one large/small or one medium / small bowl. For families, it is convenient to have at least one large, medium, and a small bowl and two or three mini-sized bowls. (As mentioned above, don’t forget to prepare the colanders as a set!)

“Large size” is about 25-30cm in diameter, “medium-size” is around 20cm in diameter, and “small size” is around 15cm in diameter. The “mini size” is a small one with a diameter of about 10 mm, and is useful for making dressings and seasonings.

Even if you don’t have a lot from the beginning, it’s a good idea to have a large, medium, and small bowl first and then add the size in between according to your cooking style.

Also, check whether it can be used in a microwave!

A bowl with a microwave oven notation saves time because it can be easily heated and melted. If it is made of glass or polycarbonate, it can be used in a microwave oven, and it is useful for cooking and making sweets using a microwave oven.

The material of the bowl is functionally stainless steel, but be aware that stainless steel cannot be used in a microwave oven. If you have one or two glass bowls in addition to the stainless steel bowls, the breadth of dishes will be expanded and convenient.
