Guli Artisan Zisha Clay Pot - 3.5L Yuanbao Ingot Design

Rediscover the rich, nuanced flavors of traditional slow cooking with the Guli Artisan Zisha Clay Pot. Crafted from authentic purple clay, this pot is designed to gently simmer soups, stews, and congees to perfection. Its unique shape is modeled after the ancient Chinese *yuanbao*, or ingot, a powerful symbol of prosperity and togetherness, making it a beautiful and meaningful centerpiece for your kitchen and dining table.

Key Benefits

Superior Heat Retention:** The thick, porous walls of the Zisha clay distribute heat evenly and retain it long after being removed from the stove, keeping your meals warm and allowing flavors to meld beautifully.

Enhances Natural Flavors:** Unglazed Zisha clay is celebrated for its ability to absorb the essence of the foods cooked within it. Over time, the pot becomes seasoned, naturally enhancing the taste and aroma of your dishes.

Generous Family-Sized Capacity:** With a 3.5L capacity, this pot is perfectly sized for preparing hearty, one-pot meals for the whole family, from nourishing chicken soup to savory braised meats.

Symbolic Yuanbao Design:** The distinctive ingot shape isn't just for looks; it represents good fortune and reunion, making every meal a special occasion.

How to Use

1. **Season Before First Use:** To prepare your new pot, submerge it completely in water for at least 2 hours. This allows the clay to fully absorb moisture, increasing its durability.

2. **Cooking:** This pot is designed for use on gas stovetops. Always start with low heat and gradually increase to low-medium. Avoid high flames and drastic temperature changes to prevent cracking.

3. **Handling:** Never place a hot pot on a cold or wet surface, and do not pour cold liquids into a hot pot.

Care & Safety

Cleaning:** After the pot has cooled completely, hand wash with warm water and a soft cloth. Avoid using soap or harsh detergents, as the porous clay can absorb them and affect the flavor of future dishes.

Drying & Storage:** Allow the pot and lid to air dry completely before storing them in a well-ventilated area.

Notes

Please note: As a result of the traditional firing process, each pot is unique and may have minor cosmetic imperfections. These characteristics are a hallmark of authentic, handcrafted Zisha ware and do not impact the pot's cooking performance or safety.
