Thermal pot

Just want to share what I \"discover\" recently...On one occasion when I cook the plain white porridge (teochew mueh), I need to leave the hse for some errands, what I did was I left the cover of the outer pot open...when I came back, the texture of the porridge was the consistency we like, not too mushy/starchy...


Using the same method, I've cooked soup which cannot be too thick (my father has kidney problems and can't have soup too rich in protein), soup with meat which I don't want to be tasteless after too long a period in the pot,...etc. IMO v.useful when I need to be out of the hse for a considerable period of time...

I've been using my 4.5l Thermos thermal pot for close to 9 yrs and it's still serving me well...Can't imagine life without my thermal :love: :love:

Cook porridge? hmmm, another good way of using the pot. I shall start to think of other ways to use my pot to prepare food. Thanks:)

Yes I use my thermal pot to cook porridge too.... the texture is simply lovely. One word to describe it... PERFECT! :love: :celebrate:

This morning I saw an almost brand new 5 or 6 litre thermal pot at Cash Converter at Bedok, going for only $15, what a steal!

That is super cheap, worth taking a look. wondering what brand is that?

Didn't notice the brand as I was not interested and was in a hurry to get home at that time.

I bought a 5L (or was it a 6L?) La Gourmet. Very good for soup. I am planning to get the 2.5L one for smaller portion cooking - porridge, dessert etc.

Thanks! Sorry late response.

I got an insert (Bain Marie) from thermalcookware (AU) to cook another dish which put onto 4.5L. It's just like 2 pot in 1 outer pot.

Hi nemofc,


Care to share more abt this Bain Marie - you got fm where? AU = Australia?

Endo’s 6-litre Thermal Pot comes with 2 inner pots.

I'm interested in getting a 2.5l thermos, like the last round Shop & Save type of pricing (missed it :mad: ) - when you know of such kang town, can alert me? Many TIA...

No problem, but you have to watch this thread. I would post here if I come across good deals about Thermal Pots.

Yes, that 2.5 litre pot offer by Giant and Shop n Save was a good deal. There is also a small plastic 3-compartment insert in the 2.5 litre pot that I bought.
