Licorice is best cooked in a casserole. Because casserole is a Chinese medicine equipment for cooking Chinese medicine. He has good heat transfer and air permeability. In addition, the effective components of the drug can be stably distributed in a relatively stable environment, so the drug effect is the best. If you don't have a casserole, you can also use an enamel pot, stainless steel pot. But the iron pot must not be used to cook Chinese medicine, because the chemical components in Chinese medicine may react with the iron in the iron pot to produce additional chemicals. This will not only reduce the curative effect, but also bring adverse effects on the health of patients. Now there are decocting pots on the market to sell decocting drugs. If it is made of clay, it can also be considered. However, the frying time of electric frying pan and the method of frying first and serving later are not as convenient as casserole.
