Indian cooking of all types generally has one common tendency: The ingredients stick to the cooking surface, unless the cooks add sufficient oil, ghee or water to the ingredients or keep stirring the mix all the time. For ages, most of the cooking skill involved prevention of the ingredients from sticking to the cooking surface. All types of paranthas, rotis, vegetables, and most of the sweets have a strong tendency to stick to the cooking surface. Scrapping of the pot used for cooking used to be one of the major cleaning jobs a generation or two back.

Coated surfaces
But the things are certainly changing
now. A non-stick surface has been created by the engineering ingenuity of human
beings. The non-stick cookware has a coating that facilitates the cooking of
food without it sticking to the cooking surface. Many companies now produce
non-stick cookware, using different types of coatings. Although all types of
non-stick cookware are now universally available for all the different cooking
processes, they are not being used for all purposes. Non-stick cookware is used
only for special dishes in most of the households. This could be partly because
of the high cost of the non-stick cookware, the general resistance of the earlier
generations to a change and the slightly modified results in taste and
crispness after using the non-stick cookware. But it is only a question of time
when non-stick cookware will come in universal use.
Enormous choice
Persons deciding to buy non-stick cookwareonline in India will be flooded with an enormous choice. Innumerable versions
of non-stick kadhai with lid, handi, pots, fry pans, fry pans with lids, griddles,
sauce pans, sauce pots and tawas are now available everywhere. They are
available in different sizes too. Steel
or metal spatulas and ladles are not used with non-stick cookware. Special
wooden spatulas and ladles are to be used along with non-stick cookware so that
their coating is not damaged.
Many manufacturers
Many companies now manufacture
non-stick cookware and offer it for sale through online shopping. The brochures
of manufacturers set the prices. But they usually cut the prices down
substantially and offer the products at much lower prices. The online traders
offer more discounts. Every year, they come up with special offers around major
festivals. Thus the final price of any item sold by online shops than the
original price mentioned in the catalogues. The shops also offer many alternatives in the
mode of payment and the buyers can opt for the mode most convenient for them.
Intense competition
The buyers can exploit the intense
competition among various online trading companies and obtain the best deal for
their hard-earned money. The use of non-stick cookware certainly reduces the
tension in the cooking process and makes it interesting. Even men can try their
hand at the usually difficult-to-make dishes using non-stick cookware, along
with a host of other kitchen gadgets now available everywhere. The non-stick
cooking range will certainly ease the load of cooking on a working woman and
make her life that much more comfortable.
