Garlic dip for the knifeless

Newish on the pottery scene are garlic-enabling dip bowls. Have you seen these? You take an amateur potter, like myself, who can only throw a bowl 4 inches high. Then you accidentally score or indent the bottom of the bowl. Whoops! Then you keep going and say - HEY, scrape garlic cloves on the bottom of this bowl and infuse a dip with garlic sans metal instrument!

Low and behold you have a bowl for your garlic-containing dips, which covers a good 90% of dips allowed in any respectable household.

I saw one of these at a craft fair a few years ago and then promptly made my own. So Easy!! Then I saw you can get them through Etsy for highway robbery.

Behold.

This is mine. The puke green with black blobby glaze looks way better with a dip inside, for sure.

What a decent potter, good glaze, and composed photography can get you.
