1, the difference between electric stew pot and water stew

Electric stew pot actually has two designs: straight stew and water stew

Straight stew: through the chassis heating or surrounded by the heating of the uniform fire stew ingredients, heat capacity, heating time is shorter, and the soup is rich and not easy to layering, it is more suitable for stewing the old-fire soup, casserole porridge, etc., but the nutrients are easy to lose.

Water stew: with the help of high water temperature to heat the inner liner, nutrient retention is better, but the heating time is long and less efficient, the soup taste is also relatively light, more suitable for stewed bird's nest, cordyceps, mollusc and other expensive ingredients.

The difference between the two can be seen from the following chart:
