Earthenware

Clay is a porous material which, when saturated with water and heated on the gas stove, provides slow evaporation of steam from the pores. This creates a moist enclosed environment that results in increased flavor and healthier foods. It seals all the nutrients inside the pot by locking steam in. Because of the lid, the steam cannot escape the pot and is directed back into the food which eliminates the loss of water-soluble nutrients like calcium, phosphorous, iron, magnesium and sulphur which is an advantage to our health. Thus, cooking in clay pots requires lesser amounts of liquids. Also, the food cooks with a minimum requirement of oils or ghee.
