My grandson continues to advance his culinary skills in his online cooking school. I bought him a Shabu Shabu hot pot because he’s currently doing a unit in Japanese dishes. This large, dual-sided pot is made well of good quality food grade stainless steel. It has a clear glass lid with a steam hole. It does require some easy assembly. There’s a hardware kit for attaching the handle to the lid. The screws come with a steel and a neoprene washer to keep the handle in place. You need a Phillips head screwdriver to tighten the screws and bolts in place. The pot also comes with two steel spoons, which are a bit small and thin.
The intended use for this pot is communal cooking and eating. You set the pot on a hot plate in the middle of the table and keep two different flavors of broth simmering. Then you add veggies, small pieces of fish or meat, and Udon noodles to the pot. Family members can dip out servings from either side or both sides of the pot. It’s a great way to enjoy cooking and sharing!
This pot, under $40, is a mid-range price and the quality matches the investment you make. Its dual-sided design is a bonus because you can make a double helping of one dish, or you can make two different dishes in one pot, like a mild dish and a spicy one.
