Why this ramekin earns its place
This is a tasting ramekin. At 45 ml it's sized for a small dip sample, a sauce taste, or a side of high-value condiment where a full portion would be wasteful. It's a visual signal on the table: this is just a taste, not a free pour.
Black powder-coated stainless steel with a 6.4 cm diameter that doesn't intrude on the plate. Handwashing only—no thermal shock, no film, no surprise failures after years of service. Light enough that stacking is easy, sturdy enough that it survives the dishpit.
Use these when menu architecture demands small portions: a dip alongside an amuse-bouche, a sauce taste with a tasting menu, a condiment so strong or expensive that portion control matters. Upmarket restaurants and tasting-menu venues stock them deliberately.
