The Perfect Clay Vegetable Baker

When we were kids, our mom always served canned vegetables. Bland green beans, mushy peas, creamed corn. Not very appealing, or tasty, and probably not the most nutritious version of veggies. So like most families, getting us to eat our vegetables was a bit of a challenge. But that was a different time and generation. Now that I’m older and have come to enjoy vegetables myself, I can see why it’s no wonder we didn’t enjoy these lifeless, colorless foods. They were certainly not the way nature intended them! So in our home today we cook a lots of steamed veggies using our clay vegetable baker.

It’s a wonderful way to enjoy fresh vegetables – they consistently turn out crisp, colorful, and delicious. And more importantly, they retain much more of their fabulous nutrition. While this baker is designed to be a vegetable baker, you really can bake any number of wonderful foods in it. Cooking in clay is so simple, and the baker is so beautiful, I find just about any excuse to use it as a serving dish at dinner. It’s just one of the many excellent cookware dishes offered in the Romertopf clay baker product line.
