Editorial Review:
Through his restaurants, cookbooks, products and television shows, Mario Batali breathes the spirit of the Old World into modern day America and shows us how to revel in the inherent joys of daily life.One of Mario Batali's favorites and a must-have kitchen staple, Measuring Prep Bowls are the perfect way to get your kitchen and your cooking organized. The bowls, shown here in Pesto, not only provide you with an easy and convenient way to sort and prepare your ingredients, but have the added functionality of measurements ??? a unique touch of practicality to Mario's line. Bowls range in capacity from 1/8 ??? 2 cups with the halfway point indicated on both the exterior and interior of all five sizes. The melamine bowls are durable and dishwasher safe. They also nest, taking up minimal storage space.Please note: This item is not microwave safe.

A nice set of bowls:
I initially purchased these bowls as a prep bowl set, and then I was highly impressed at the measuring capabilities. They are well-made and beautiful (I ordered the persimmon color, a nice orange that isn't garish). They really make things easier in the kitchen. A good value.
Perfect:
These bowls are great. Nice and heavy, and their dual purpose measuring cups and prep bowls are genius. The fact that they stack together for easy storage is great.
Makes my list of MAGGIE'S FAVORITE THINGS:
I've always wanted to create a list of my favorite things, just like Oprah. If so, these bowls would be on it. Each year, I try to find something great (yet inexpensive) that I love to send my friends. This is what I'm sending this year!
I'd buy it again:
Product is perfect when you're busy at work and want to grab a serving of nuts out of a larger bag or container, or if you want to measure out the right amount of yogurt quickly and get back to work. They are nice enough looking that you can use them as bowls and eat right out of them, as I do with my yogurt, nut and peanut butter snacks.
