The clever interplay between cooking pot and insulated bowl means the HOTPAN sets new standards in cooking. Right after the contents have been brought to a boil, the stainless steel pot is placed in the melamine bowl. Thanks to the special insulation, the food cooks perfectly without consuming any more energy and is kept hot for up to two hours. Energy savings of up to 60% can be achieved, while preserving valuable vitamins and nutrients. For everyone in a hurry with a sense for aesthetics: the insulating bowl plus pot can be placed directly on the table, thus saving the need to transfer the food to another vessel for serving.
