Just what are you guys putting into your broth mix? I try to have as
little fat as possible in my broth. (Said with an air of superiority ;-)) -
that's a double chin below the smile.
I guess the idea of a washcloth in the boiling water to dampen the noise of
the fired clay block is the better one.
But what about a purely vegetable mix to cook down into a broth - anything
in that that would be technically deleterous to the absorbtion rate of the
clay block? Just curious. I don't actually ever plan to combine cooking and
clay absorbtion ever.
Best regards,

Dear Carol,
If these absorption pieces are put in to cook with a Chook there is
usually a lot of fat that rends from the skin. Even if clay tiles were
put in with flensed carcases fat and oil would rend from the bones.
