With the acceleration of people's pace of life, the demand for a variety of convenient and practical kitchen gadgets is also increasing. Among them, the stewed beaker and the thermos cup, as two different containers, have some obvious differences in function and use. So, what's the difference between them?Which one is better?
1. The difference between a simmering beaker and a thermos cup.
1.Functional differences.
The main function of the beaker is to simmer the ingredients, and by simmering them at low temperature for a long time, the ingredients become softer and more flavorful. The main function of the thermos cup is to keep warm, maintain the water temperature or food temperature, and is suitable for storing hot drinks or hot food for a short time.
2.Capacity differences.
Because beakers require long simmering of ingredients, they usually have a large capacity and are suitable for cooking multiple servings at once. The capacity of the thermos cup is relatively small, which is more suitable for storing a small amount of hot drinks or hot food.
3.Material differences.
Braised beakers are usually thicker, have better heat retention properties, and are able to maintain low temperature simmering for long periods of time. The material of the thermos cup is relatively thin, and the main focus is on the heat preservation performance rather than the stewing function.
Second, which one is better.
The choice of a braised beaker or a thermos cup mainly depends on your needs and use case. If you need to cook ingredients for a long time, or like to experiment with a variety of stew-based dishes, then a beaker may be more suitable for you. And if you just need to keep a hot drink or hot food warm for a short period of time, then a thermos mug may be more practical.
3. How to choose a healthy and qualified stew beaker.
1.Check the product logo: choose a regular brand and channel to buy, and ensure that the product logo is clear and standardized.
2.Understand the material: The material of the braised beaker should choose a healthy and safe material such as food-grade stainless steel or silicone.
3.Check the sealing performance: Braised beakers need a good seal to ensure that there is no water or air leakage during cooking.
4.Know the capacity and size: Choose the right capacity and size for your individual needs to ensure ease of cooking and storage.
Fourth, what dishes can be made in a stewed beaker.
The beaker can be used not only to cook various soups, porridges, desserts, etc., but also to cook some simple stir-fried and steamed dishes. For example, you can use a braised beaker to make chicken porridge with shiitake mushrooms, glutinous rice porridge with red dates, pumpkin porridge, etc. Just clean the ingredients and put them in a beaker, add an appropriate amount of water or soup base, then cover and simmer in hot water for a while to enjoy the delicious stewed dish. In addition, you can also use the beaker to make some simple stir-fried and steamed dishes, such as stir-fried vegetables, steamed egg custard, etc. It is important to note that due to the limited capacity of the braised beaker, the amount of dishes cooked is also relatively small, making it suitable for single or small family use.
