FAQs

Is it safe for gas stoves?

Yes, just make sure you cook on a low flame and increase the heat gradually.

What makes this different from the regular clay tava?

This is fired at a higher temperature in a wood oven, making it more heat-resistant and giving it its signature black colour

Is seasoning required before using?

No. It’s already seasoned using starch and vegetable oil—ready to use right away.

Does it change the taste of food?

Yes, in the best way. Clay cooking enhances the aroma and adds a subtle, earthy note.

How long does it last?

With proper care, your clay tava can last for many years.

I am extremely impressed with the quality of the natural cookware from getkitch.in. The cast iron kadai was a pleasure to use and it felt like I had been using it for years. Using this kadai brought back fond memories of my childhood days. Thank you, getkitch.in, for such a wonderful product!

I was hesitant to switch to a cast iron skillet, but I'm so glad I did with getkitch.in's cast iron skillet. The quality is exceptional, and it's so easy to use. I've cooked everything from eggs to steak, and it comes out perfectly every time. Thank you, getkitch.in, for such an amazing product!
