A "Stone Pot" is a traditional cooking vessel made from natural stone, often used in various cuisines around the world. These pots are known for their ability to retain heat, making them ideal for slow cooking and simmering dishes. They are commonly used for preparing stews, soups, and rice dishes, enhancing the flavors through even heat distribution. In many cultures, such as in Korean cuisine, stone pots are referred to as dolsot and are particularly popular for serving bibimbap. The pot's unique properties allow it to create a crispy rice layer at the bottom, adding texture to the meal. Stone pots are often appreciated for their durability and aesthetic appeal.
