Hi - just a note - being a South Indian myself - usually they say not to use tomatoes or tamarind in iron / cast iron - it messes with the digestion and assimilation. So we usually don’t make sambhar / rasam in cast iron / iron. And use it for every thing else - like beans / potato/ cabbage / cauliflower poriyals etc …
Hi Shweta, thank you for all the praises. I pick things that give me the best output in terms of price, quality or functionality be it local or IKEA. But I always prefer to explore local to be able to compare all places and shop for the best thing. I really waited for 5 months for this shopping haha!
Hey. Have got a cast iron tawa for over six months but was never confident on how to season properly. Though it's a long process but tomorrow is Sunday. Gonna surely do it. Well we both share the same love while in an utensil store. For me crockery, utensil shopping is like a kid in the candy 🍭 store. Much love
Haha...utensil shop is walking heaven. So happy I could share the glimpse with you in the video. Cast iron is really doing wonders in my kitchen. Go for the seasoning Rohini. The effort is worth it seriously :)
I wanted to comment on not using iron cookware for acidic food like tomatoes and tamarind... But i see, enough ppl have already commented about it i think 😁😁😄 The mini idly plates remind me of my school tiffin boxes my mom used to pack, drizzled with ghee and podi 😍 I just came to this video after i saw the next one (latest, 5 tiffin ideas one)... I just watched it late at night and now I am hungry 😁😁 awesome recipes..
I absolutely loved your shopping...I loved that appe pan, so adorable. Many years ago I bought cast iron cookware for an exorbitant price. You point on appam chetti is 💯 true. I got a chetti which I barely use. My next purchase is a tava for which I am waiting patiently ...I also hope to buy it locally as its way cheaper. I loved this shopping haul, completely worth it.
The wooden chopping board won't last long.. I m saying it from my personal experience.. Yaaaa.. I just luv luv luv watching ur vlogs so much dear.. Ur speech.. ur patience.. ur accuracy in day to day life is very much inspiration.. Just keep up d best.. God bless you and your family 👪.. Sab ka mangal ho🙏😊
Hello Swati ji! I liked your today's cookware shopping haul a lot. It is really difficult to choose any one of these articles because I liked all the articles 🥰 but I just loved brass idiyappam machine. Thnx for such nice tips for making these cast iron cookware ready to use. I will definitely purchase cast iron tawa now from local market. Thnx and best wishes to you 😊😊👍👍
Make sure the rust completely goes off before using it for cooking & transfer any dishes made with citric acid in that like tomatoes/tamarind/lemon to other container as the citric acid leaches into the iron and the taste & colour will change
I just wonder how well u adjust with so many move and can you maintain a social life with just frequent move 😊. Happy to see your positive Attitude towards life ..
Hi di ..I am newly married.its little difficult to manage home alone.can you plz tell me ..why is there white residues on utensils..what I can do for this
Congrats on your new marriage :) Go easy and be consistent. Don't try to finish everything in one go I will say. White residue can be because of 1) Too much dishwashing detergent 2) Hard water supply. Use vinegar water as the last water to rinse you utensil. Hope this will be helpful :)
Ur vlog was very informative yet entertaining....ur enthusiasm on the new purchases....I feel will resonate with most of the ladies...I really loved ur square appe pan...& the cute spoons...the rest I am happily usingnow😁...Happy cooking & eating dears...
Hello.. quite addicted to your videos I’m. One question I have. All these product links that you’ve shared, are these similar items or have you purchased from the same seller offline ? Thanks.
Thank you Neha. I am glad you enjoy watching my videos. I bought all items offline, but if offline vendors are not available in your city, you can check the online links of the similar items that I have shared in the description. :)
I just want to mention one thing. My mom told me not to cook citurs things like tomato in cast iron cookware. I hope it will be helpful for you. Good shopping. Keep on sharing your shopping with us. Stay happy always.
Hi Swati.. Lovely vlog as always.. I'm from Kerala and has been using cast iron for years. .. A suggestion is to wipe off the excess water after washing before you keep the utensils directly on the stove for drying and heating up. Otherwise there are chances of cracks forming on the surface due to sudden change in temperature.Also pls share the shop details from where you bought those stuff from.. Would be helpful for many.. Lots of ❤
Thank you so much for this advice. I am glad I have friends like you to improve me for better. The shop name is Fancy utensils in Broadway and there is one in Mather bazaar inside Braodway market.
Hi dear Swathi... I was late this time to watch ur vlog.. but was waiting to... love loved the vlog... I was just looking at myself in this vlog in you . I wud have bought the same things and felt the same happiness 😊 I literally felt I only bought all those things and enjoying it 😂 can't wait to see ur next vlog...
Very nice video!! I am watching your video for first time. Your presentation is too good!! I just wanted to tell you that after switching off the stove, remove cooked food in another vessel from cast iron vessels. If you keep in the same, extra iron will be deposited in food which is not good for our health. This is what my mother-in-law told me.
Hello di..video is lovely and loving all your shopping. I was expecting your purchase cd be tagged with the price or bargaining if any , it would help us in shopping. 🙏
Wonderful video. You really motivated me. I'll try switching over to cast iron gradually. The coconut scraper was also a good buy. I would like to know it's price so that I can also get one. The mixie is not so useful for scraping coconut
This video is really helpful for me...bcz I have cast iron dosa pan recently but don't know how to season it ..I washed it and applied oil many times but rust doesn't go off...one thing I want to ask is have you done the whole seasoning process in the same day..and after frying onions did u simply leave the pan or did u wash it again and used just to confirm so that I can follow and use it?
Hello and thank you for watching the Vlog. So glad that it is helpful to you. Yes I did the entire process in one day and at the end after frying onions, I again repeated the same process of salt and lemon + drying + oiling and heating till smokes comes. This is a constant step after every cooking process. Rust will come if you won’t oil it and heat it at the end before putting it in cabinets. Hope it was helpful 😊❤️
Sis, i have that same coconut scraper, over years it's vaccum will reduce, while scrapping it gets detaches, intially you won't face it. Happy to see you enjoyed my native place.
@talkingmom - True, over the years the suction will reduce and you will find it difficult to use the coconut scraper. Instead you can go for wooden coconut scraper from amazon that sits on the kitchen platform very easily.
Hi Preeti, is it? Have you tried it before? I will also check and see for myself. Else I will use my knee to hold it and both hands to scrape the coconut like the traditional way 😂. Thanks for watching girl!! ❤️
Most of South Indians use that coconut scrapper a lot. Best buy as coconuts crunch and juicy content remains intact while scrapping and is lost if grinded.Am using one since 6 yrs.
We don’t eat vegetables much on a daily basis but cooking even all our meat dishes in iron vessels is delicious and nutritious Ofcourse. Especially red meat!
All the purchases are so meaningful and well thought.. coincidently i also brought an iron-ware kadai and i can relate to the experience you are quoting against non-stick cookware. Good to see you well, Swati and say hi to rutvi
Hello Kusumika, frankly the local purchase is always reasonable and that’s the reason I waited to buy all these items locally. I got this one in 190/-. Although I am yet to use it and understand the quality. Will share in future vlogs sometime maybe 😊
Hello Swati.. It's a delight to watch your each and every video.😊 Your videos are like a complete package..There is useful information, creativity, learning, motivation and the list of good things continues..A lot to learn from you and your videos.. Keep up your good work and keep spreading happiness like this.. God bless 😇
Hello Shilpa, Both were below 500 because it was Kochin - the place of manufacturing. Else in another city, the same thing in the local market also might be a bit overpriced due to varied reasons.
Hi - just a note - being a South Indian myself - usually they say not to use tomatoes or tamarind in iron / cast iron - it messes with the digestion and assimilation. So we usually don’t make sambhar / rasam in cast iron / iron. And use it for every thing else - like beans / potato/ cabbage / cauliflower poriyals etc …
No no we can usr for ages we are using just it needs to be transferred as soon as its done
Where did you buy this paniyaram pan mam?
You are correct
Thanks for the info
Yes we have to use them for dishes without tamarind
Good to see when local goes vocal..I was irritated with vloggers who got stuck with IKEA and not exploring their own indan local market.
Hi Shweta, thank you for all the praises. I pick things that give me the best output in terms of price, quality or functionality be it local or IKEA.

Kadai is good for frying pappad , making little subji, and of course make yummy apppam .
Yes!! Just loving this little helper of mine these days. Thank you for watching 😊❤️

We don’t eat vegetables much on a daily basis but cooking even all our meat dishes in iron vessels is delicious and nutritious Ofcourse. Especially red meat!

Good utensils of cast iron 👌👌,but Swati you not looking good house wife.you are the most intelligent woman. 👍👌So do something new.
Only one word YOU ARE JUST PERFECT ❤ lots of love Swati
Your videos are soothing to the eyes. I instantly subscribed and binge watched all of them at once😅
Hi, please share the Kochi vlog, shopping places there and any other additional information please🙏🙏
Lovely video! But I have heard that raw iron utensils are better than cast iron as per health issues. Am i wrong?
👌👌next video - different recipes in appe pan 😜
haha...At atleast I shared on in the latest vlog. Let me know how it was :)
When u said heaven for me, i could totally relate 😁 loved the haul. :)

Thanks for sharing the seasoning process.
Thank you For always watching the vlogs and sharing your thoughts. Really appreciate 🙏🏻😊
Could u plz tell how much did the mortar pestle cost?
Hello Kusumika, frankly the local purchase is always reasonable and that’s the reason I waited to buy all these items locally. I got this one in 190/-. Although I am yet to use it and understand the quality. Will share in future vlogs sometime maybe 😊
Ok..thank u
Will look fwd for its reviews

Hi Meenakshi. Thank you for writing here. Did you enjoy watching the shopping? 😃
Hello Swati..
It's a delight to watch your each and every video.😊 Your videos are like a complete package..There is useful information, creativity, learning, motivation and the list of good things continues..A lot to learn from you and your videos..
Keep up your good work and keep spreading happiness like this..
God bless 😇
Thank you for motivating me with such good words. I really need to hear this more often than not. I am more than thankful to you. :)
What's the size of your kadai please let me know and also the tawa
Tawa is 10 inch and I think Kadai is also the same size.
Please share the shop name and prices.... And awaiting feedback
Hello, It was in Broadway. The shop was in Mather Bazaar. Will keep sharing the reviews as I will use the products :)
Unfortunately cast iron didn't work for me😔
Hello, oh. But why? What really happened?
Price of kadhai n tawa in local market bcz in amezon means online too costly
Hello Shilpa, Both were below 500 because it was Kochin - the place of manufacturing. Else in another city, the same thing in the local market also might be a bit overpriced due to varied reasons.
@@TalkingMom thank you 😊
