I thought bronze would be hard to maintain, but this kadai is surprisingly easy to clean. A little lemon or tamarind, and it shines right back up. Totally manageable and worth the effort.
It looks absolutely beautiful, I almost didn’t want to use it at first! The finish is super smooth and shiny. Honestly, it’s a functional piece and a showpiece in one. This brand Tamas really nailed the design.
