Mini Bread Bowl


Good idea, not much more I can say about this one.  How we came up with it?   A couple of months ago we were on a road trip up the Northern California coast on the hunt for the best clam chowder in a bread bowl.  My boyfriend D refuses to eat a bowl of clam chowder if it's not served in a sourdough bread bowl (the way they serve it in San Francisco).  If you've never had it, you've got to try it.  It truly enhances the soup eating experience with a great bonus in the end...delicious bread pre-soaked with rich clam chowder, it's amazing.  We were way north of San Francisco and assumed the bread bowl would be easy to find.  Not so much, restaurants either didn't serve bread bowls or were sold out.


Desperate times call for desperate measures and often spur the birth of genius ideas.  I consider this one of those ideas.  D decided to convert his sourdough dinner roll into a mini bread bowl.  Ridiculously adorable, tasty, and not too shabby on the calorie count either.  Thanks D for your genius idea.
