That’s the one. I bought two on Amazon about three months ago for $55.34. Today’s price is $36.50 ea. Two would be $73.00. Looks as if they are up $8.63 ea. over what I paid. With the price increases on nearly everything, even in our local stores, going up weekly, I will have to be very prudent in my purchases.

I bought the Thermos Nissans to cook beans and rice in and just discovered today you could cook anything in them. Plus they are super for keeping coffee hot.

We use two “pillows” filled with packing peanuts. One pillow has a recess large enough to hold a 3 quart pot. The other pillow covers the pot.

We bring rice, pasta, fresh veggies to a boil then put the pot into the pillows. Perfect rice & spaghetti in about 10 minutes.

Dried beans requires boiling about 15 minutes, putting it into the pillow for an hour or so, then bringing it back to a boil for another round.
