Slow food, slower fire
4.6· 5 reviewsA pair of lidded cooking handis — one large, one small — for dals, biryanis and slow curries. The clay holds heat long after the flame is off, finishing the cook on its own.
“Season the handi before its first meal. It will darken with use and reward you with softer rice and deeper dals.”

I was skeptical about the whole 'clay pot changes the water' thing, but after a week I can honestly tell the difference. Softer, cooler, no metallic aftertaste. The pot itself is beautiful — clearly hand-thrown, not factory perfect, and I love that.
Arrived in Pune without a single crack — properly cushioned. Seasoning ritual on the site is easy to follow. Second order coming for my mother.
Colour is slightly darker than the photo on one side (kiln flash?) but honestly it makes it feel more real. Studio replied to my WhatsApp questions within an hour.
Seasoned it exactly per the care guide. Cooked toor dal on low flame — the smell was unbelievable. No cracks after 3 weeks of regular use on gas.
