Ruchi Terracotta Cook and Serve Pot is inspired by the 'Tagine" pot popular in North Africa and Middle East countries. A tagine-style pot helps to trap the steam within the pot, helps to cook without adding much water, and improves the flavour of the food. It is well documented that slow cooked food tastes better and helps to preserve nutrition. Ruchi Pot is aesthetically crafted to double up as a serving ware. The conical lid helps to keep the food warm.
