From 1884 Mrs. Lincoln A Scotch Bowl is a lidless, slope-sided kettle with bail handle. The bowl is made of iron or fireproof pottery These vessels were most often used for making thick Scotch broth barley soup or for porridge. The bowl is lidless because porridge has to be stirred constantly. (Franklin, p. 190). The example pictured at left is made of pottery and has a decorative design stamped into its side.
