Thermal pot

Hi Schweppes,

I get the twin pack corn from Giant/Shop and save. Super sweet carrot (loose ones) from Giant…soup is so sweet. The prepacked carrot cannot compare.

The loose ones are really big, fat and sweet. Prepacked ones cannot compare. Son even asked me if I put sugar into the soup. Standing to choose carrots can be so fun. Jelak, really aunty liao.

I thought that was very good already. Didn't know loose ones are even better. But don't see it in Bt Timah Finest hor?

[quote=\"schweppes\"]This thermal pot is a god send. After reading all the wonderful reviews here, I decided to get one for myself last year. Got the Tiger brand from Tangs during one of their promotions.


So far, have made:

The meat tastes really tender after being in the pot. As per what some forummers have suggested, it's good to cook for about 20-30 mins to bring out the flavour. After that, I would place the inner pot into the thermal pot for the day. It's be very tender by dinner time.

Thanks to everyone here for cooking tips and recommending the wonders of the thermal pot. :celebrate:

Pork ribs with corn is nice and rich...tasty and nutritious at night.
I boil on stove for about 1 hour before putting inside thermal cooker.

:hi5:

My dd2 is so inspired by the pork ribs and corn soup that she asked her daddy to buy corn seeds and now she is attempting to grow corn in a little pot [/quote]Schweppes, where to buy corn seeds ah?

[Happy Mama]

This thermo pot thread seems to fun and exciting.


This is the first time I hear of a Thermal Pot. So it's not slow cooker, not pressure cooker and not double boiler?

How interesting! Wonder how it looks like :?

Oh my, Happy Mama. Looks like we are treading into the Themal Pot thread now

Uhh... it's something like a slow cooker but yet not quite. Basically, u just cook/boil for about 30mins - 1hr and then put the pot into this thermal pot. And then viola, your soup/stew is ready at the end of the day. Good for busy mommies.

Here's a link to get an idea.

Very convenient for cooking. Meat is tender and the soup/stew is very tasty at the end of day or next day, depending on when u want your stew/soup to be ready. There are quite a few brands out there. Just read the thread to see what other forummers have to say.

Am turning to be a regular kitchen gadget gal with all these kitchen toys I'm getting :roll:
