Stock Pot - A Brief History
The history of the stock pot is not nearly as ancient as one would think. Cooking vessels were a very slow but necessary part of the evolution of humanity. While early man used reeds, turtle sheets, mollusks and the stomach from animals to heat their food, the evolution to pottery was a slow process. Pottery allowed the containment of the food substances over a slow and low fire. Pottery cracks when it is super heated. Even modern pottery is reserved for slow cooking. No Open fires please! It was not until the development of bronze and iron that pots made of metal became another choice. Found in Medieval kitchen was a cauldron similar to modern stock pots. A cauldron had a rounded bottom and a curved handle which hung over an open fire. Cauldrons or kettles were used for cooking or boiling liquids. Cauldrons' fell out of favor when they became a symbol of witch craft and the requirement of an open fire.
Stock pots are round, with a flat bottom and handles on either side. A lid is a helpful accessory. Rounded handles become hot when cooking making them less useful then the side top handles sported on modern stock pots. Stock pots are made from a small range of modern metals. Metals useful for pots conduct heat well and are chemically not reactive. Food should not taste like the pan, nor should the qualities of the metal become a part of your diet. Metals that have been used over time is aluminum, copper, cast iron, stainless steel, carbon steel, enamel cast iron, enamel over steel, clad iron or copper, and metal featuring nonstick interiors.
While stainless steel has many great qualities heat conduction is not one of them. A good stainless steel pot should have another more heat conducting metal on the base of the pot.
In construction a stock pot is similar to a large sauce pot. A sauce pot is as tall vertically as the diameter of the bottom. Saucepots are measured by volume. The smaller the sauce pot the more likely it will have just one handle, much longer handle. Stock pots are much larger with two handles on either side in order to use both hands to balance the weight of the pot. Stock pots are also measured by volume usually 6 to 36 liters. A stock pot sides are at least as large as its diameter allowing for stock to simmer for long periods of time. Stock is created by placing vegetables or meats in a large quantity of water and simmering over a long period of time. The reduction of the liquid creates a rich stock (vegetable or meat) to be used as a base for soups, stews, pot pies, and sauces. Some meats do not lend themselves well to stock like pork because of the greasy quality.
Some recommendations for good stock is to start with cold water, add meat at a ratio of one part meet to two parts water, add meat before the vegetables, simmer with bubbles just breaking the top (not boiling), and scum that comes to the top should be skimmed and discarded. :: Stock Pot - A Brief History
About the Author
Let's first begin with a few of the normally hot purple bedding ensemble themes among boys. Most of the themes and trends they like revolve around animals or pets, cars and planes, athletics, hobbies, and admired characters. These are oftentimes in the colorings of primary colorings, and to a greater extent solid or intense colors a great deal. Here is a set of ideas for you to take note of: <a href="http://carsbed.iofferz.com">cars bed read more...</a>
Have you used a portable induction cooktop, and if so, which of these cookware sets is a better deal?
I'm comparing two stainless steel cookware sets from the same manufacturer. One has 8 pieces and the other has ten plus an induction cooktop. The differences in the basis sets are that the 10 piece has a 3 quart pan with lid and the 10-piece also has a larger stockpot (8 quarts versus 6 quarts).
In addition, the 10 piece has a current offer for a free portable induction cooktop.
The 10 piece is $130 more than the 8 piece, so I'm leaning toward the 8 piece unless someone says the induction cooktop is a must-have item. I see it as likely to be put in a cabinet and not used much, but I'm definitely open to hearing good things about it.
Thanks for your thoughts!
Wow, that's a good question. I personally have never used an induction cooktop, but I hear they are the bee's knees and I'd love to have one. They get really hot, really fast. Great for wok cooking.
Amazon says they run from about $130 to $170, so with the extra pieces in the 10pc set, it isn't a bad deal.
You could always eBay the cooktop. In new condition it would probably sell for between $90-100, but there's time/hassle/shipping to figure in there.
Hmmm. If it were me; even as much as I'd love to have an induction cooktop, I couldn't justify it. Like you say, it would take up counter space, and I'd only use it now and then.
