Thank u very helpful
Ummmm........... Its A Bit Too Long
Thank u so much for the explanation in depth..👍
Thanks a lot
to 'keel the pot' is not about cooking, it's about cleaning a cast iron pot, or one made of pottery, with coarse sand or grit. A clay pot, or one made of cast iron, could not be cleaned with water, so a pot was scoured, or "keeled" using dry sand or grit.
