Clay Cooking Pot - Cook the traditional way, in natural clay.
The Clay Cooking Pot is an unglazed traditional earthenware used for slow, even cooking of everyday Indian dishes. From spinach, gravies, and sambhar to fish or chicken curry, food cooked in clay develops a depth of taste that is difficult to achieve with modern cookware.

This region is known for its high-quality clay and skilled potters who have refined their craft over centuries. Each pot is shaped using traditional techniques that focus on strength, balance, and long-term use rather than quick production.
