With the changing times, we often forget a lot of our roots and grandma’s stories. But this summer, let’s be reminded that we do have an age-old companion to help you get through scorching heat and summers. Terracotta has been used in households for generations; it is like a best friend in the summer. The porous textures and natural cooling qualities of clay are important reasons to use it during the summer. The natural orangish red colour and matte texture add more to the table.

Explore some terracotta pieces from ellementry for your kitchen.

A home to keep your rotis warm and happy

Let’s begin with where every nostalgic memory comes from, be it your home or your grandma’s. We loved to sit by the kitchen and share stories while hot rotis with ghee were being made. This terracotta roti box also comes with a wooden lid to protect your food from pests or flies and to keep the leftovers warm. You can use this to store or even serve parathas, theplas, and phulkas. It is a fusion of two materials to bring a variety of colours and textures to your kitchen.

Set the summer rituals right for everyone

Curd has been a part of our diet for a long time. Having a teaspoon of curd with sugar or craving a glass of lassi and chaas is a must. You can make a thick batch of curd at home. A protein-rich diet full of good bacteria can help you get through a tiring summer day. This terracotta curd setter not only has health benefits, but the porous texture helps soak up excess water and make your curd creamy and store-bought-like. The wooden lid helps you cover it safely and firmly.

A sustainable, food-safe, and handcrafted terracotta baking dish is a must-have. Whether you love baking beautiful desserts or one-pot recipes, this product helps the heat to be evenly distributed. This dish from the sienna collection is oven and microwave-friendly. The best part is that the design is perfect for you to serve in this as well. And don’t we love a multi-purpose product?

To take care of the terracotta range, keep it away from stoves or inductions. Terracotta should be given an overnight soak before being used for the first time. Prior to each use, wash it with a mild detergent and dry it.
