The October simmer pot
A pot on low is cheaper than a candle and better company. This is the October standard — keep it barely simmering all afternoon and top up the water; that's the whole job.
- Orange slices
- two rounds, peel and all

- Star anise
- two stars, for depth

- top up the water as it goes
Keep this one — and get early access.
