But you are right in saying there is no "bubbling" action beyond the first few minutes of boiling. So the temperature is just shy of boiling point when the liquid is steeping in the thermal pot. I think southernoise tried to boil tonkotsu soup.<BR/><BR/>One thing to note is that you need to use less water. Cos you don't lose water by evaporation using this closed pot. Some people who follow recipes exactly may find their soups tasting more bland. Maybe that's why didally's hubby finds them "not as tasty".<BR/><BR/>Anon: recipe? Hmm, given that we used ready-made spices from the market, there really isn't any. Boil chicken with spices in water, prepare potato cutlets (begedil), grind some chili paste, blanch beansprouts, chop cilantro and fry shallots. Oh yes, and steam some ketupat (which we also bought ready-made from the market). That's it. :)<BR/><BR/>SIG: haha yeah!Camemberuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12606864987474618179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2068656129507965062.post-17884335109099882582008-08-30T22:56:00.000+08:002008-08-30T22:56:00.000+08:00Woohoo!

Am I right to assume that there is no convectional heat in thermal cooking, ie, no 'bubbling' action? I just wonder if the lack of convectional heat creates soups which look & taste less full-bodied? I would love to get a thermal cooker if taste is not compromised, cos MIL is very very particular about soups! Hence my very very high gas bills!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2068656129507965062.post-23595450549620873632008-08-29T16:54:00.000+08:002008-08-29T16:54:00.000+08:00No, no, no, this is not a one-in-all wonder pot.

Better ways to cook old dishes always help! :)<BR/><BR/>独孤求胜: I bought the pot from Carrefour. There are different sizes - mine's a 6L one for S$59.90. It's a cheap OEM brand. You can get Tiger or Zojirushi ones too, but at S$200 or more.<BR/><BR/>Food Lover: ah, most people don't realise how much heat is dissipated and wasted during regular cooking.
