This handi comes in Brown Color. Storage in clay vessels has a long history, stretching back to at least the ancient Roman times, and is still a favored way to cook today.

Being porous the pot absorbs moisture during soaking. As the pot is slowly heated, the clay slowly releases steam from its pores which gently cooks the food. This prevents foods from drying out. Natural juices and flavors are retained in the pot, while nutrient content is preserved. - WHILE COOKING :- The ideal cooking temperature should be between 190°C and 250°C. Clay pots take longer to heat. So, on an average, cook the food for 15-20 minutes longer in comparison to your regular pots. While cooking food in a clay pot, the temperatures need to be set approx. 40°C higher than your regular cookware. It is suggested that you cook on low heat.

This eliminates the risk of mold growth inside the pot. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07MCP7VRG | | Best Sellers Rank | #32,810 in Home & Kitchen ( See Top 100 in Home & Kitchen ) #69 in Sauce Pots & Handis (Home & Kitchen) | | Brand | PALVIT CLAY ART GALLERY (P.C.A.G) | | Capacity | 1 litres | | Colour | Brown | | Country of Origin | India | | Customer Reviews | 4.0 out of 5 stars 318 Reviews | | Enclosure Material | Clay | | Finish | Non-Stick | | Finish Type | Non-Stick | | Importer Contact Information | PALVIT CLAY ART GALLERY | | Included Components | Handmade Handi | | Is Oven Safe | Yes | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 15D x 10W x 10H Centimeters | | Item Type Name | Terracotta Clay Pot | | Item Weight | 500 Grams | | Manufacture Year | 2025 | | Manufacturer | PALVIT CLAY ART GALLERY | | Manufacturer Part Number | Clay Handi | | Material | Clay | | Model number | Clay Pot | | OutputCapacity | 1 litres | | Packer Contact Information | PALVIT CLAY ART GALLERY | | Product Dimensions | 15D x 10W x 10H Centimeters | | Size | 1 Litres | | Unit Count | 1.00 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** PALVIT CLAY ART GALLERY (P.C.A.G) - **Capacity:** 1 litres - **Colour:** Brown - **Finish Type:** Non-Stick - **Is Oven Safe:** Yes - **Item Weight:** 500 Grams - **Manufacturer:** PALVIT CLAY ART GALLERY - **Material:** Clay - **Product Dimensions:** 15D x 10W x 10H Centimeters - **Size:** 1 Litres ## Images ![Handcrafted Dahi Handi for Curd, Cooking & Sprouts | Eco-Friendly Handmade Clay Pot | Curd Bowl with Lid (1 Liter) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61Z9ZOYXYIL.jpg) ![Handcrafted Dahi Handi for Curd, Cooking & Sprouts | Eco-Friendly Handmade Clay Pot | Curd Bowl with Lid (1 Liter) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51DR7LLoVyL.jpg) ![Handcrafted Dahi Handi for Curd, Cooking & Sprouts | Eco-Friendly Handmade Clay Pot | Curd Bowl with Lid (1 Liter) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71jdcxAufpL.jpg) ![Handcrafted Dahi Handi for Curd, Cooking & Sprouts | Eco-Friendly Handmade Clay Pot | Curd Bowl with Lid (1 Liter) - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/717KP80uWuL.jpg) ![Handcrafted Dahi Handi for Curd, Cooking & Sprouts | Eco-Friendly Handmade Clay Pot | Curd Bowl with Lid (1 Liter) - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71m-jtCJQoL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Can I cook biriyani in this?** A: Yes **Q: Can we use this pot for cooking or we have to use for curd only** A: No.. u can't use..❌ It is for curd purpose only..
