Korean Stone Pot with Tray

A black Korean-style earthenware pot, 16 cm across, with a heat-proof tray to carry it on. It is the pot bibimbap and bubbling stews are served in: heated on the hob until the base is searing hot, then brought straight to the table still sizzling.

Thick-walled clay holds heat far longer than metal. Rice pressed against the hot base forms a crisp golden crust, and a stew stays at a simmer for the whole meal. The tray protects the table and gives you something safe to hold.

Why you'll love it

• Holds heat — food stays hot to the last spoonful.
• Crisps the rice — the crust at the bottom is the best part.
• Hob to table — cook and serve in the same pot.
• Tray included — carry it safely and protect the table.
