Rekindle the charm of traditional cooking with the Ammi Kallu – the age-old stone grinder that stood at the heart of every Indian kitchen. Also known as Sil batta, this handcrafted tool is a legacy passed down through generations.
Before mixers, every flavorful chutney or masala was born on this Sil batta – ground by hand, releasing unmatched aroma and taste. The texture it imparts is rustic, the flavors – rich and deeply rooted in tradition.
Whether it’s chutney or the earthy masala powders for your curry, the Sil batta helps recreate that authentic taste our grandmothers once mastered.
Slow down, reconnect, and rediscover the joy of cooking – the way it was meant to be.
