A Japanese dentist, of all people, has invented a sculpted pot that will automatically stir its contents as they heat up. It promises to completely revolutionise cooking, at least for the world’s laziest chefs.
The Kuru-Kuru Nabe (aka the ‘Pot Round and Round’) was invented by Hideki Watanabe, who came up with the design after experimenting with dental plaster at his practice. The pot relies on thermodynamics to create a whirlpool motion as liquids heat up. It not only saves you from having to stir, but it allows for a more efficient and even heating process, and has the added benefit of compacting foam so the pot is less likely to boil over.
It’s certainly not going to work for particularly thick recipes, like say a pot of chili, but for soups and such it seems downright genius. So we sincerely hope Watanabe finds an investor or two to help put this into production.

The only issue I see is that it looks like you actually lose quite a bit of space in the pan. I would still buy it though.
Oooh, maybe I can finally get rid of using clingfilm and a cup to get my poached eggs to work!
The only reason I would get this is because spinning water is mesmerising.
…and thats reason enough for me, where can I place my order? XD
If you boil soup someone should remove you from the kitchen.
Depends on the soup, and whether you like it with or without bacteria.
