My sister loves her Romertopf clay bakers. She has a few of them actually. One is extra large, I think they call it the maxi baker and it’s big enough to hold a seventeen pound turkey at the holidays. She also has a large baker she uses quite frequently for roasts, stews, soups and other meals throughout the year. Plus she has some of their neat small bakers like the apple baker and the banana baker. I always enjoy her cooking and I guess I dropped enough hints about her cookware because she bought me my own Romertopf Small Clay Baker for my last birthday.

I love my Romertopf. The small baker is the perfect size for me. I can cook enough chicken on Sunday that I have leftovers for another night or two during the week. Plus I use it for slow cooking my favorite black bean chili too. Since it’s a great looking dish, I can even use it to serve food in when I have company or to keep my soup warm on the table. Of course now I’m hooked on cooking in clay like my sister, so it’s only a matter of time before I treat myself to another piece of this great cookware.
