Heat Sensitive Pots |

Back in Medford. Lots of moving things, unpacking, Julia
painting, getting library card... I start at BBN on the 15th.
One thing I was thinking about with Jonah (potwasher) while
washing dishes at Pinewoods was that it would be good if you
could easily tell the temperature of a pot by looking at it.
Surely there are heat sensitive chemicals, changing color as they
heat up. So why not put this on the outside of a pot? Then the
potwasher knows when a hot pot has been put on his dirty rack.
And the cooks know if somehting out of the dishwasher has yet
cooled to touchable temperature. If it works well, you could
even use it in the cooking itself -- is the skillet hot enough?
See what color it is.
