DolsotParticipantMapanggulo,
Since I first ‘seasoned’ my dolsots 2 months ago, and noticed the cracks, I made bibimbap about a dozen times. I have to tell you – there is a definite crack, throughout EACH of the dolsots. I hope yours don’t have that crack.
BUT, bibimbap is a relatively dry food, so it leaks very very very rarely. Maybe just once.
I am cooking my bibimbap on the gas stovetop, not preheating the dolsots in the oven, and when I first ‘seasoned’ them, I did it on the stovetop as well, as those where the directions I had.
All in all, the bibimbap is a great success, that I ordered two more dolsots. Hurray!
Michael.
DolsotParticipantUpdate:
Once my two Dolsots cooled down, and upon closer inspection, I noticed that EACH dolsot has a VERY thin crack running the entire length of it, from side to side through the bottom.
When filled with plain water, the dolsots would leak very very slowly. (When I heated them with water and salt they leaked rapidly).
Is this normal? Is this crack something I can manage with? After all, Bibimbap is a fairly dry food, not a soup… It’s not supposed to leak from the bottom of the Dolsot…
I purchased the dolsots here: http://www.koamart.com/shop/48-2427-asian_cookware-stone_bowl__medium.asp
They say that “Minor “cracks” are only cosmetically damaged. The stone bowl itself is not defected”. Is that true? Or are my Dolsots defective?
I live outside the States. Dolsots are IMPOSSIBLE to get in my country. I went through great pains getting those pieces here.. I hope I can still use them for my Bibimbap…
What do you think?
