this is part of an ongoing series of posts on helpful hints or as i call then pockets of wisdom. you can read the first post here to find out the goal for these posts and some background information about then (stuff about sources, etc…)
so one of the problems that some people face when boiling water is getting distracted only to arrive back at the kitchen with the pot/kettle burn and my whole apartment filled with smoke. i have been lucky so far and its never happened to me (except when i was trying to steam something once and i put too little water in the steamer and ended up burning the bottom of the pan a bit). luckily i caught it in time and was able to stop a major disaster from happening.
here is a really easy way to alert you when you start getting close to the danger zone
“Put a few marbles into your double boiler/tea kettle/pot before putting it on the flame. This will warn you when the water has boiled away”
seems pretty easy. i should try this the next time i have to steam something
Don't be a stranger. Tell me what your think and leave me a comment. Trust me, you'll feel better!
