For generations, earthenware has been an integral part of the cuisine and culinary traditions of the Middle East. From preparing lamb, stews, and biryanis without losing nutritional value to cooling drinking water, clay cookware has always been extensively used for its unparalleled benefits. Unfortunately, when metalware took over, clay-based cooking was somewhat lost. Recently, there has been a sharp rise in demand for earthenware cooking as people ditch metal cookware and plastic containers. Here’s why traditional vessels like clay pots, glasses, and frying pans have successfully made a comeback.
Having your meals prepared in alkaline clay pots neutralises the acidity of the food, ensuring optimal pH levels. Clay pot cooking also requires less oil or butter, which makes food a lot healthier. Clay pots and pans used for cooking even provide the food with an earthy flavour. Not just this! They add nutrients like calcium, iron, magnesium, and phosphorus to food, which benefit the body.
The clay cookware’s porous nature allows the heat to circulate evenly within the cooking vessel. As a result, the food cooks optimally and doesn’t burn. The food’s nutritional value stays intact, and it becomes more flavourful and aromatic.
If you are an eco-conscious individual, clay cookware is a sustainable option to count on. Clay is biodegradable and doesn’t harm the environment as it decomposes back into nature.
Clay cookware is a lot more affordable than steel and other metal cooking pots used in kitchens. It is also readily available in a wide range of forms and sizes, such as clay pans, pots, and kadhais, to fit all your cooking needs.
When metalware began to dominate the marketplaces, clay cookware became less popular. But now, it’s coming back in kitchens. Thanks to the growing awareness of the benefits of sustainable, healthy, and conscious cooking! If you too want to add clayware to your culinary arsenal, try earthenware from House of Adam today.
