Iron pot has a high melting point, which is very suitable for cooking and can supplement the iron needed by human body. Although it is common, it brings great convenience to human life. Iron pot is a necessity of life now, and everyone needs it, so it seems nothing special to us. But you know, there was no iron pot in ancient times, and it didn't appear until the Northern Song Dynasty. That is to say, people didn't eat fried food before the appearance of iron pots, so how did people solve the food?
Before the iron pan appeared, people didn't know there was more? Fried? At that time, people used to bake, boil and steam this cooking method. In the era when there was no fire, people ate raw food, including some bloody meat, directly. But this way of eating is unhealthy, it will bring a lot of bacteria into the stomach, leading to illness, and the taste of raw food is also very poor, so it can only be used to fill the stomach. After fire was discovered and used by people, people began to learn to bake food, like some hunted meat, with sticks. The barbecue is fragrant and delicious, just like the barbecue we see today. Later, in the Neolithic Age, people began to make ceramic products, so people began to use ceramic containers to cook food, or they could add water to it and put a bracket to steam food.
In the Northern Song Dynasty, smart people successfully smelted iron from coal, and then they made iron pots. Iron pots were very popular at that time, even overseas. Many iron pots are exported overseas every year. People abroad seldom use this thing, and even keep it as a treasure. At that time, the iron pot was not as common as it is now, but as a luxury, it brought convenience to people's lives.
