Introduction
Today, we appreciate how cooking in one pot infuses a mealwith great flavor. A few hundred years ago, thats how ourforemothers cooked out of necessity. They filled a cast-iron cauldron with available ingredients and hung it in thefireplace, usually the only source of heat. The results werewonderful, healthy meals for everyone.
The obvious advantage to cooking your entire meal in onepot or one skillet is easy cleanup. Another advantage is thatwhen you cook in a large pot or Dutch oven, you will likely enjoy leftovers. You come home from work after a long day and simply reheat. What could be easier? Really ambitiouscooksevenfreezetheir leftoversinone-serving sizecontainers.
Cooking up a batch of soups or stews makes for economicalmeals. You save a lot of money when preparing a tasty stewinstead of a piece of individual meat with the fixings. Andits hard to beat the wonderful gravy and sauces from a onepot meal.
You can choose the freshest ingredients when preparing aone pot meal. Its fun to experiment with different types of vegetables, and you know exactly what you are eating. No processed food on your table.
