Is this pot safe for cooking acidic food?

Yes, absolutely. The interior is coated with 100% food-safe Tin (Kalai). This barrier prevents the brass from reacting with acidic ingredients like tomatoes, yogurt, or lemon, making it safe for all curries and biryanis.

Can this be used for Dum Biryani?

Yes, the heavy brass construction and the included heavy lid make it excellent for 'Dum' cooking. The thick walls retain heat evenly, allowing rice and meat to slow-cook to perfection without burning.

Traditional Slow Cooking: The secret to the rich flavor of traditional Indian food lies in the cookware. Brass distributes heat evenly and retains it for long periods. This "Sipri" shape (wide bottom, slightly narrowed neck) is designed to circulate steam perfectly, making it ideal for Dum Pukht (slow cooking) techniques.

Why Choose Tin-Coated Brass?

Safety: The Kalai lining prevents food from reacting with the metal, ensuring your food remains non-toxic and retains its natural color.

Durability: Built like a tank, this handi will last for generations with proper care.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I maintain the Tin Coating?

Use wooden or silicone ladles to prevent scratching the lining. Wash with a soft sponge and mild soap. Avoid steel wool on the inside. If the tin wears off after years of heavy use, it can be re-tinned (re-kalai).

Is this handmade?

Yes, this is a handcrafted product. You may notice minor hammer marks or slight variations in finish, which are the hallmarks of authentic Indian artistry.
