Dipping & Condiment Bowls

A kitchen may be well-stocked with pots, pans, and dishes, but the items we use the most are also the ones we tend to overlook, like appetizer plates, dipping bowls, and small sauce containers. These types of serveware are unsung heroes of the kitchen. From a large chip & dip bowl ideal for a crowd to small dipping bowls meant for individual use, you’ll find them all at Macy’s. Here's what to know before you browse. 

Dipping Bowls Do It Better
Have you ever seen a stack of sauce bowls at someone else’s house and had an “aha!” moment? Us, too. That’s because a dip dish is just plain handy to have around. Besides being convenient serving pieces for casual entertaining and weekday meals, dip dishes are also helpful for prepping. Use a condiment bowl to hold chopped aromatics like garlic and ginger before adding them to a stir fry. Or use them to keep fresh herbs and other garnishes at the ready while you plate the meal. 

Do you want Insta-worthy charcuterie boards? Style them with a small sauce bowl or two to hold liquids (like honey), slippery stuff (such as cornichons and olives), and little morsels (think raisins and nuts). Adding these small bowls will help prevent items from rolling around, falling off the sides, and generally making a mess of the beautiful board you've created. 

Serve Groups with Style & Ease
Every home should have at least one chip-and-dip bowl. Chip & dip bowls combine a large bowl or lipped platter with a condiment bowl stashed inside. Some versions have a removable dip bowl and come as a set. Others have the dip bowl attached, so there’s less chance of it overturning and spilling the contents. A chip-and-dip bowl is an obvious win for family time, like watching a game or movie night, but they also make hosting easier. Put them out with your usual dining items so partygoers can help themselves. While you're at it, think beyond basic combos like tortilla chips and salsa or potato chips and creamy dip. Chip-and-dip bowls also work well for more refined self-serve appetizers, such as crudités or chilled shrimp with cocktail sauce.
