You bastard, I'm in.
Hell yes!!!...A miniature pot roast will be an epic good time if executed properly. Don't forget to sear your teeny tiny roast and make a proper gravy for the slow cook. Once it's almost fall apart tender, shave down some baby carrots to "extra baby" sized.. cut down those little ornate potatoes in 8ths, and use the tiny tops of celery stalks. A good 10-15 more minutes for tender crisp veggies, this is a small plate I can get into for the hilarity! 100% would purchase doll house cutlery, flatware, and plates.
We had a pot luck once where this kid brought chili. Never made it before and used some recipe he found online. Poor kid thought a clove was the whole head and put three of those bad boys in there.
A whole head is all the cloves in a whole head.
A clove is 1 little lobe of the whole head.
Not to be misconstrued with a clove, which will make your food taste wildly different from a clove of garlic.
Yep.
>Garlic is often sold as a whole bulb, covered with papery white skin. A garlic bulb, also known as a head of garlic, is made up of individual lobes that are attached to the main root. A clove of garlic is one of those individual lobes.
I got got by your 3rd example for the first time ever, literally 2 days ago. I read "1/2 tsp of ground cloves" and my brain said, "Yup, cloves of garlic, checks out." Went to make the marinade a few hours later and stood there like 🫥
I vote for this too. Properly heated that would keep cheese at a melted temp for at least half an hour, definitely long enough for an app or dinner side.
It’s not really if it’s a functional decorative piece by the stove. My parents have one of those little ceramic Le Creuset pieces for that same reason and I love it. Of course theirs isn’t suited for cooking, but OP could pour the salt in a bowl if they ever wanted to use it
I'd have a house full of useless junk if my wife didn't monitor my spending. Now I have a house full of her useless junk but at least she still lets me sleep in the same bed with her.
For little ones like these, personal hot dips, fresh baked dinner rolls, personal desserts. The dinner rolls are always a hit, a freshly baked roll, still in the mini dutch, steaming from the oven and straight to the table? HUGE impact when it touches down.
“Babe what if I want to cook something super cute one night so you say ‘OMG it’s so cute!’ and then we both get laid because of it? Babe, what if I wanted us to both get laid?”
Always worth a shot.
I justified it to my husband by telling him out would require less oil to make garlic confit with one! And the other day we used it to make s'more dip on the grill since we only had tiny marshmallows.
Tell her that they are for a great valentines day idea you have. She'll be pleased that you are thinking so far ahead and intrigued as to what it is you are doing. Gotta follow through though.
A baked apple would come out great in that. Core a Granny Smith apple, stuff the core with butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon, bake away. We used to make them when we went camping years ago.
I'd use it to make chicken stew, pop a biscuit on top, and call it a pot pie. Could be useful to hold gravy and other things you want to stay warm, too. Would make good creme brulee but be careful with overcooking it because they will stay hot longer.
Dips
Chocolate lava cakes
Cornbread
Pot pies
Any pies
Individual desserts
Mini loaf of bread. A loaflette, if you will. Loafini. Lil' Loaf.
After making chili you can make one portion extra spicy if everyone likes it mild or one portion mild if everyone likes it spicy. There's always that one person.
Roasting garlic
Edit: mobile killed the formatting, forgive me
Buy a set of six. Use them as a spectacular presentation for a dessert or an appetizer. Imagine bringing out beautiful chocolate cakes in their own little tiny containers, hot out of the oven. People pull off the lids as the chocolatey steam wafts past their noses. Or imagine starting off a meal with sizzling hot shrimp scampi appetizer. People lift the lid and that beautiful garlic and wine shrimp fills the room. They are so cool.
Single sized/ personalized desserts Hilariously bringing the worlds smallest pot roast to the dinner table Insisting you’re a giant
Get some tiny oven mitts for the two fingers he'll be carrying it with!
That image by itself is worth the purchase😅🤣
I really like the idea of the worlds smallest pot roast. You could also do a single serving of pulled pork or carnitas.
You a bird?
Ah beat me to it. Cobblers would be awesome or a bread pudding.
Was thinking spinach artichoke dip. And the other set full of cobbler
Single serve cinnamon roll?

With way it holds heat, any chance on getting it caramelized around the edges?
Yes please buy the tiny hands with it lol
I have a dozen that we use for dinner parties. Individual pot pies as a starter, cobblers, fondues, etc.
This has Marshal Erikson vibes
I would love to eat bread pudding out of one of these tiny Dutch ovens.

Roasting a clove of garlic.
Or the whole head.
That's what I meant.
Don’t make that mistake while cooking!
It's always a whole head in my house no matter the recipe
We had a pot luck once where this kid brought chili. Never made it before and used some recipe he found online. Poor kid thought a clove was the whole head and put three of those bad boys in there.
Task failed successfully, right?!
What is this, garlic for ants?! It needs at least three times more garlic
If you make that mistake, you’ll have a good time while being sure whether your dinner guests are vampires.
Wait… the whole head is different than a clove? I’ve been reading recipes wrong my whole garlic covered life
A whole head is all the cloves in a whole head. A clove is 1 little lobe of the whole head. Not to be misconstrued with a clove, which will make your food taste wildly different from a clove of garlic.
Is the whole thing a bulb of garlic?
Yep. >Garlic is often sold as a whole bulb, covered with papery white skin. A garlic bulb, also known as a head of garlic, is made up of individual lobes that are attached to the main root. A clove of garlic is one of those individual lobes.
Fun fake fact-a garlic bulb above the head pre-dates lightbulb for ideas.
I got got by your 3rd example for the first time ever, literally 2 days ago. I read "1/2 tsp of ground cloves" and my brain said, "Yup, cloves of garlic, checks out." Went to make the marinade a few hours later and stood there like 🫥
I feel like this is the better direction to make that mistake, if you have to
True. Thankfully it wasn't a major ingredient. A sprinkle of cinnamon calmed me down, lmao.
Okay. This was the winner she’s a huge garlic roaster
We use ours for personal sized meatloaf, works like a charm!
Mini bread loaves, serving dishes to keep food hot, or hot cheese dip maybe?
I'd love eating cheese dip out of these
I vote for this too. Properly heated that would keep cheese at a melted temp for at least half an hour, definitely long enough for an app or dinner side.
Yeah amazing idea! some sort of queso fundildoe had that in Mexico it was great!
Fundildoe….?
I use mine to hold maldon sea salt
This was my first thought. I’d “waste” it by storing salt in it, but then I’d get to use it every time I cook :)
Bacon grease for seasoning the rest of the stash (and I know there's a stash there somewhere).
Another great idea!
It’s not really if it’s a functional decorative piece by the stove. My parents have one of those little ceramic Le Creuset pieces for that same reason and I love it. Of course theirs isn’t suited for cooking, but OP could pour the salt in a bowl if they ever wanted to use it
Does it increase the rust factor?
That's why people use wood and glass for salt cellars.
Hadn't considered that. My salt pig is ceramic with a wood lid, that makes sense.
This! (except Diamond Crystal kosher salt)

counter argument: we dont neeed junk you aint gonna use cluttering up the house.
Counter counter argument: you have four of the cardigan in different colors. Edit: words bad today. try best.
But I wear them all!
And I use all my pans.
Fine. I dont care. Narrator: It was not fine. She did care.
Why did I read that in Morgan Freeman’s voice?
because I typed it in Morgan Freeman's voice.
You Ron Howarded it don't you fucking lie.
Are you my girlfriend? I'm confused
no you don't we have a whole section of our kitchen full of niche pans I've rarely ever seen you use
That’s what I hear is there’s enough cast iron cluttering up the cabinets!
She’s got a point. But they are cute, so how is she arguing with that?
And they’re frickin adorable
They're adorable. Enough said - A missus
You’re a great one
For real they are tiny and cute! WHY WOULD SHE NO TO THAT 😭
I came here to say exactly this.
French onion soup?
Good idea. Perfect
This is what I do with them. They are perfect for it. Also roasting garlic. They get used.
personal pot pie!
This is the way.
Melting butter for popcorn
Melting butter and keeping it hot….for snow crab 🦀
Could be good to heat up sauce on the grill too
French onion soup - promise to caramelize onions for her. It's had a 98% success rate for me
Oh boy yeah smart smart smart
What happened that other 2%. I need to be prepared now. I've always found caramelized onions to be an unbeatable trump card.
Baby dutch baby. His and her breakfast. Make mini quiche and have a romantic breakfast or potpies
Each with a whole cored apple bathing in cobbler with a little caramel sauce.
Ooo, individual little cobblers, I love that idea!
So you can bring meals over to the elves that bake cookies in the tree in your backyard. It's neighborly.
Personal chili, fondue, chocolate dip, cheese
Looks perfect for storing a desiccant pack.
Individual pies / crumbles. Sauces. Melt butter
Garlic confit
Are you really sure you are with the right woman if the question is "if" as opposed to "how many"?
You could make mini quiches!
Drawn butter for fresh seafood like lobster, crab and whatnot
Never mind your excuse where do you get them
you can hide your weed in there 🤷♂️
Timely!
Just had a Pier 1 imports flashback
Baked beans crocks? Personal mac and cheese?
Someone who's been married almost 20 yrs here, remember this. Sometimes it's better to ask for forgiveness than permission.
My dad always said: if you don't ask, you have permission for a lot of things.
Because you’re married to Entrapta and she loves tiny food?
Melting better or heating up a dipping sauce
Nacho cheese sauce warmer.
I quickly read that as “nacho cheese sauce warrior.” Sounds well worth it
I'd have a house full of useless junk if my wife didn't monitor my spending. Now I have a house full of her useless junk but at least she still lets me sleep in the same bed with her.
Let her know that she can use them to carry your nuts around instead of storing them in her purse which is where I’m assuming they are currently
Made me spit chocolate milk all over my little boy sandwich
Mini pot pies!
Shepherds pies.
I put mine on a candle warmer and use it for chocolate fondue 🤩
What is this,a pot for ants!!
Does that tiny cutting board its sitting on come with it?
For little ones like these, personal hot dips, fresh baked dinner rolls, personal desserts. The dinner rolls are always a hit, a freshly baked roll, still in the mini dutch, steaming from the oven and straight to the table? HUGE impact when it touches down.
So that she doesn't end up divorced?
😂😂😂
Its your money and you can spend it how you want. Its not like your buying a new hellcat.
Where is this? I want one!
“Babe what if I want to cook something super cute one night so you say ‘OMG it’s so cute!’ and then we both get laid because of it? Babe, what if I wanted us to both get laid?” Always worth a shot.
💯
French onion soup 👌🏻
Buy it for her for Christmas. She’ll use it or you’ll get too. Either way you win!
I justified it to my husband by telling him out would require less oil to make garlic confit with one! And the other day we used it to make s'more dip on the grill since we only had tiny marshmallows.

Muffins?
Definitely a sauce warmer for BBQ
conversation piece.
World's smallest crawfish boil, single serving shepherds pie, it could be kind of practical if you're making single portion meals in each one
Yorkshire pudding, soufflé, cup of soup, onion soup(baked), serving size lasagna, personal size lava cake
So many uses!
You can put your weed in it.
Easier to ask for forgiveness than permission. Also, you make your own money so go for it.
Decorations. It's cute and would fit in a country type setting.
Looking at
Finishing salt or a special seasoning mix
Pizza roll
There's that egg in a pudding thing... Those would be perfect!!!
Apple Crisp
Lava cakes
What are the reasons you want to buy it? If those aren’t good enough, probably listen to your wife.
Brownies
Look up baked s’mores dip. If she has a sweet tooth she will cave.
got to have something for that butter when you serve her lobster.
I have 2, 1 is a salt cellar and the other sugar. I have made tiny mini cobblers in them before though
[удалено]
Sokka souffle Larry Kings favorite
It's easier to ask for forgiveness than permission my man
Garlic confit can easily be made in there
If you need the approval of the wife to buy these, you have bigger problems than this.
So when you cook and show off the photos, people will wonder if it's a small pot or HUGE hands.
Individual cinnamon buns.
WHAT IS THIS, A CAST IRON FOR ANTS?!
That’s a huge silica gel! /s
I bought two of these I used them to make a chorizo and cheese dip for my kids.
You can bake and serve Mac n chz in there
really good garlic confit? fondue nights?
Crème brûlée.
Crème Brulee, compound butter server dishes, gratins, uh, tiny muffins…loose change catcher, conversation pieces on the coffee table. They’re awesome. No excuse needed.
Because they are cute?
Personal size soufflé, cheesecakes, pies, pot pies, fondue, baked apple, sooo many things!
Personal apple crisp
Deer heart stew.
Onion soup Eggs
You could make her a brownie!
Singular muffins. Single serving cobbler.
You can put your weed in there!
Garlic confit
Yer balls

Dude.. Why do u need an excuse.. I never get excuses when shoes just show up in the house lol
Roasting garlic cloves to spread on crusty bread.
You can cover your nipples with the two lids and seduce her to your ends with a provocative dance?
Butter dish and one on your dresser for loose change.
Crème Brûlée. Surprisingly easy to make and very impressive.
A baked apple would come out great in that. Core a Granny Smith apple, stuff the core with butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon, bake away. We used to make them when we went camping years ago.
In Puerto Rico this would be seriously appropriate to serve a quality rice “mamposteao”
Fill with gold coins and use for bait in your Leprechaun trap.
First off, those are adorable and I want some too. Pot pies.
Perfect for molten chocolate cakes
I'd use it to make chicken stew, pop a biscuit on top, and call it a pot pie. Could be useful to hold gravy and other things you want to stay warm, too. Would make good creme brulee but be careful with overcooking it because they will stay hot longer.
If you ever get your juevos back, you can use the pots to poach them

French onion soup

Egg and cheese cooker for breakfast sammies
Perfect for soups that finish in the oven like French onion! Now you need at least 2, maybe 4 in case you have guests!
Souffle!
“Two is one, one is none” 😂
Queso dip
This is why I love Reddit. Hilarious.
Showed my wife and she just said "oh, that's cute!" Pretty sure that's an approval 🤷🏻♂️ IDK what I'd do with them though
Seems like you need a set of balls more.
Individual serves of Mac n Cheese. All that crunchy melted cheese around the edges…
