Yes, our traditional brass cookware is completely safe for daily culinary use. Every Brass Handi Cooker is meticulously layered with a food-safe pure tin lining (Kalai). This protective barrier prevents any direct reaction between organic food acids and the metal, making it an ideal choice for cooking all types of food, including acidic ingredients.

The traditional Kalai coating (or pure tin lining) is essential in heritage brass cookware because it acts as a non-reactive barrier. Without it, acidic foods can react with the brass. This protective lining ensures your traditional Indian cookware remains food-safe while preserving the authentic taste of your dishes and extending the lifespan of your cooker.

When selecting your Brass Handi Cooker, choose the 2L size for couples or side dishes, the 3L for a family of 3–4, and the 5L for larger families or festive cooking. Choosing the right size ensures you maximize the brass cooker benefits of uniform heat distribution and energy efficiency for your specific household needs.

Proper brass cooker care guarantees your heirloom piece will last for generations. Wash your traditional brass cookware with mild dish soap and a soft sponge, avoiding abrasive scrubbers. Dry it immediately with a soft cloth to prevent water spots, and have the pure tin lining replated (re-tinned) periodically as it naturally wears down over time.
