A red pot sits on a black induction cooktop, viewed from directly above. The pot is circular with two red handles extending from either side. Inside the pot is a dark, reddish-brown substance, appearing thick and somewhat viscous. The substance fills the majority of the pot's interior, and there are some light reflections on its surface. The cooktop has some text on it which reads: "cleaning the pots hot do not touch with your hands".
