Traditionally referred to as a “ball of bones,” this Aluminum Broth Ball is commonly used to steep bones that help flavor broths. The kitchen essential is also utilized to cook Portuguese rice, but you can use this smaller size to hold herbs and spices to make everything from soups to mulled wine. Sourced by A Vida Portuguesa, a small, women-owned, Lisbon-based shop focused on goods made in Portugal, this product is produced by Mardouro which manufactures metal kitchenware while valuing Portuguese design and technique. The Aluminum Broth Ball measures 4.7h x 4”diam. Dishwasher-safe.
