Seasoned Soapstone Traditional Paniyara Kal | Maakkal Pan – 7 Small Pits

Not only Paniyakkal but all traditionally made stone utensils store the healthy antioxidants of the food by spreading the heat evenly. Unlike modern kitchen utensils that are chemically coated, stone utensils store the nutrients of the food item. Stoneware in general retains heat for a long time so food can be kept fresh for a long time. Also, food does not need to be stored in the refrigerator.

Maintenance Method

1. Do not use soap to wash this dish but use only rice flour or peanut flour.

2. For the first few days, avoid using cooking utensils over high heat.

3. Avoid placing the empty vessel on fire.

4. Also, overheating the pot can lead to cracks, so it is best to maintain it over medium heat until the end of cooking.
