How to season the terracotta cookware?
Seasoning clay cookware is essential to prepare it for cooking. Here’s a step-by-step guide over 9 days to help season your clay pots:
Day 1-3: Starch Water Soak
-
Prepare starch water: Use the leftover water from boiling rice or any starchy food.
-
Fill the pot: Pour the starch water inside the clay cookware and let it soak for 3 days. This helps seal the pores of the pot.
Day 4-6: Boiling Water at Low Heat
-
Low heat usage: After the starch water has been discarded, fill the pot with water.
-
Boil water at 30% flame: Slowly boil the water for about 15-20 minutes on low heat for the next 3 days. This further strengthens the clay and prepares it for cooking.
Day 7-9: Steaming Food
-
Steam food: You can now steam simple food items like vegetables or rice for the next 3 days.
-
Gradually increase usage: After this, your clay cookware is fully seasoned and ready for regular cooking.
This process helps prolong the life of your clay cookware and ensures it cooks evenly.
