I use a water bath to cool stock and other things going into the
fridge. While it wasn't the pot itself (that was creating the chicken
soup o the stove), your point is well taken. Next time, I'll decant
the stuff into jars, put the lids on and then put them in the water
bath.
Thank you.

Well it was a $72 pot, but it's big enough to make a roast, or act as
a dutch oven, which is something I've wanted/had need of for a while.
And if I wasn't frugal in the kitchen, I wouldn't be able to afford
the gadgets and widgets that make cooking so much fun!
