"Why didn't I think of that?" people ask themselves. This year the new "aha" product is by VitaClay. Michelle Liu, Engineer/Top Inventor/Chief Executive Officer at Essenergy, Inc. really hits the nail on the head with the new Crock n' Stock, a 6.5- quart smart and fast multi-cooker and stockpot. The thought of ditching the steaming stovetop cauldron when mak- ing bone broth or large portions brings a smile. This is a faster, easier, mess-free and notably more nutritious way to make a large batch of bone broth, chili, stew, healthy steam, nourishing jook, soup or yogurt. For large or extended families, co-op life and small restaurants that have gone green, this is a product that will be great- ly appreciated. With doctors recommending bone broth, gluten-free grains, less salt, less sugar and fresh ingredients, it makes sense to use unglazed clay because it amplifies flavors and alkalizes foods, increasing the positive interactions between the nutrients. With technology and programmable settings, juices are sealed in and liquids integrate, keeping your kitchen cleaner and investing all the flavor molecules back into your food. Meats become succulent, perfectly tender and juicy. Meals are satisfying without added salt or sugar. Rice, grains and beans are perfectly tender and fish or vegetables are easy to steam for high nutrition and flavor without frying. The new Smart Multi Crock n' Stock pot features Fast Cook (and Steam), Slow Cook, Congee with an auto start timer and auto Warm, Yogurt, and Cooking Timer can be set up to 10 hours. The low temperature yogurt maker and grain germinator was a big hit last season. People want to quit using plastic yogurt containers and save money for large batch, and use their own healthy ingredients when making yogurt. Bone broth is making a comeback. It's so good for you but has been a time consuming and messy endeavor to make, says Liu, a fan of author Sally Fallon, who just published "Nourishing Broth," a companion book to her best- seller "Nourishing Traditions." "Sally has been leading the current bone broth revolution," says Liu, reignit- ing the public's interest in this ancient tradition and sharing a wealth of infor- mation with people on the healing poten- tial of broths, soups and stews. With VitaClay Chef, you can make 24-hour bone broth for all your health needs in 10 hours. This breakthrough allows more people to cook the foods that are better for you, but took too much time for their busy lives. Liu, always the scientist, says the biggest secret is not how the ancients used unglazed clay, but why they choose it – for its synergistic prop- erties. Clay is infrared, paramagnetic and alkalizing, interacting positively with the foods. It is this synergy between all the natural elements that she feels is the secret of to good health and longevity.
