Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is this cooking set safe to use directly on a gas stove?
Yes, it's designed for direct use on a gas stove for frying. Avoid using it on induction cooktops unless the base is specifically induction-compatible.
2. Does the tin lining need to be reapplied over time?
Like most tin-lined brass cookware, the coating can wear down with years of heavy use and may need to be reapplied, a process called kalai, to keep the interior safe for cooking.
3. Can this tray be used for dishes other than jalebi?
Yes. Beyond jalebi, it works well for frying other syrup-based sweets, pakoras, or any dish that needs a wide, deep pan.
4. How do I clean this set after frying?
Clean it with warm water and a mild dish soap after it cools down. Avoid harsh scrubbing on the tin-lined interior, and dry it fully to prevent water spots on the brass exterior.
5. Is the skimmer's wooden handle heat-resistant?
The wooden handle stays cool enough to hold safely during normal frying, though it shouldn't be left resting directly in extremely hot oil for extended periods.
