Enamel pots and enamel pots are common kitchen utensils. Enamel pot, also known as enamel-coated cast iron pot, is an inorganic glass enamel coated on the surface of the metal base. It can prevent rust, heat evenly, has good acid and alkali resistance, and will not react chemically with food.

The enameled waterfall pot is a composite material pot in which the inorganic glassy material is melted and solidified on the base metal and firmly combined with the metal. It has the inherent mechanical strength and processing properties of metal, as well as corrosion resistance, wear resistance, heat resistance, non-toxicity and decorative properties.

The pot is thick and has good sealing performance. Fast heat conduction, even heating, and good thermal insulation performance. But it preheats slowly. It can maintain a stable heat after preheating is completed. After turning off the heat, the pot can also be kept warm for a long time.

How to choose an enamel pot:

1. Look at the pot lid. First look at the top of the pot lid. The color should be uniform and beautiful. This is basically no problem.

Check for air holes, impurities and other problems. Impurity problems are almost inevitable, but if it is a red pot lid, it will not be visible. The orange one is very obvious. It is common for trademark characters to turn black because the enamel layer there is a bit thin, but there are also good ones. Look at the edge of the pot lid again. This is where it is most likely to have air holes. Sometimes there are too many holes to look at, but there should be no bumps or damage. Finally, look inside. There are often signs such as capacity. If the signs are black and the white enamel is too thin, be very careful, because once used, these black parts will expand and become as black as Song fonts. This is Because the nearby white enamel was brushed off when cleaning the pot!

2. Look at the pot body. First look at the edge of the pot. There should be no damage. This is the most likely place to be damaged in the future. You should choose it carefully when buying.

Look at the body of the pot. There should be no major problems with impurities and gas holes. Look at the bottom of the pot. The bottom of the pot is relatively thick, but it is also very easy to wear. It should not be placed directly on the stove when used in the future. Finally, look at the inside of the pot. The white enamel inside must be uniform and there should be no air holes. If there are problems in the pot, don't ignore them and replace them if possible.

3. Then put the pot lid and pot body together to check the sealing degree. The method is to put it up and press around to see if it is warped. If it is warped, it means it is not sealed. A well-sealed pot can reach higher temperatures.

4. Look at the size. Generally speaking, the 24 cm round stew pot is the most widely applicable size and is suitable for a family of three to five people. This size can stew a whole chicken or duck that is not very large. If there are two people in the family, an enamel pot with a diameter of 22 cm is enough, which can satisfy the amount of stew for two to three people.
