• Nutrient Preservation: Traditional wisdom suggests that cooking in Kalai-lined brass helps retain a higher percentage of nutrients in the food compared to some modern cookware.
• Natural Non-Stick Properties: With proper seasoning and use, the Kalai surface can develop naturally non-stick properties, reducing the need for excessive oil.

To maintain the beauty and longevity of your Indian Metalware Brass Kadai, hand wash with a mild detergent and avoid abrasive scrubbers on the Kalai lining.
