by Manya Verma Health care and lifestyleAren’t we careful about the foods we eat? Then why shouldn’t
we care for the utensils we cook them in? Earthenware
kitchen utensils are an outstanding medium where you can have your food
cooked in and more so because of their inherent, incredible health benefits. So
go ahead, or rather we should say go back to making use of clay and earthenware
to rustle up healthy, tasty meals in your day-to-day life. Here’s how and
why.
1.
Inexpensive and easily available
· Earthenware in India is low-priced as
compared to other cooking implements. They’re available in sundry sizes and
shapes.
· Buying them doesn’t entail creating a
big hole in your wallet.
· Even, you could order clay kitchen products online and have
them doorstep delivered without further ado.
2.
Flavorful food
· Irrespective of whether it’s a simple
“handi” or a “Kadhai” utilized to prepare a curry, the porous quality of a clay
pot facilitates retention of heat and moisture inside the pot itself.
· This ensures a perfectly cooked meal
chock-full with flavor and taste.
· Besides, the earthy smack and aroma
are inimitable.
3.
Beauty and grace
· You get pottery or earthenware cookware in India in all
shapes and sizes and for all intents and purposes.
· You can put a small, compact kulhad
to use for your morning tea instead of a ceramic or plastic cup.
· When you store water in clay Matka
than in a refrigerator, the water will have a natural coolness and sweetness to
it.
· The clay pots have sublime beauty and
are presented in exciting designs, colors, and shapes.
· They infuse a hint of ethnicity and
class to your dining table.
4.
Health benefits
· The clay utensils for cooking are said to bestow us with vital elements
like iron, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, sulphur and many other components
which our body significantly benefits from.
· Also, because of the intrinsic
alkaline nature of clay puts they blend beautifully with foods containing
acidic ingredients.
· In this manner, they perfectly
redress the PH balance of the food you cook thereby making it wholesome and
health-giving.
5.
Heat resistant
· At odds with popular belief, earthen utensils for cooking are
resistant to heat but to a lesser degree than their iron or copper complements.
· Handis or clay pots are usually baked
and glazed to a point with the aim of making them more heat resistant.
· You can use them to cook your daily
foods on a gas burner without putting in too much effort.
· The secret lies in keeping the flame
low and eventually raising the temperature slowly but steady.
· A sudden temperature rise may cause
cracks in the handi.
· Slow-paced cooking in an earthen
handi contributes to the food’s original, delicious, earthy flavor.
· You can knock up rice, pulao, dal or
sabzi – the whole kit and caboodle in best
unglazed clay pots for cooking.
· Try cooking biryani in a clay pot.
You’ll know how delicious and divine the preparation tastes like.
· A few more minutes of cooking is a slight
con when contrasted with the several pros of cooking in clay.
· The highpoint is that in recent times
you get the clay pots for cooking which are microwave safe too.
