    Hi Folks

    Apologies if this isn't the correct thread, couldn't see anywhere I'd be more likely to get an answer.

    Can anyone tell me what the name of the bowl/dish that is used in this video?

    It looks like an egg-coddler. Not usually meant for serving, but rather for cooking coddled/poached eggs.

    Definitely not an egg coddler and egg poachers normally have a lid and are metal.

    Possibly a devilled egg server?

    True. Looks a bit heavy for a serving dish though. Maybe for baking eggs?

    Actually looks like a yoke I was served ridiculously over-priced grilled snails in with butter & garlic when in gay Paree one time.

    Yep, looks like a snail dish to me.

    I'd go with the escargo dish too.
    Otherwise known as a stupid, not very attractive , gimmicky container to serve an unimaginative, 1980s style fish dishe in to make it seem somehow trendy.

    That recipe is everything I dislike about French inspired cooking.

    A quick Google would seem to confirm that.

    An escargot dish as others have said and a daft presentation. The fish would be horribly overdone by pan then oven cooking and overwhelmed by all that cheese!

    Did you really fancy the cream & prawns combo? You could do Floyd's Prawns with Pernod and Mushrooms en papillote. I've cooked this in the distant past and given it a neon bookmark in the little free recipe book that came with kitchen roll!
