Easy Tips for Better Cooking



  1. Before Putting tava on the heat, prepare all ingredients and keep spatula, utensils , serving plate etc ready in the cooking  area. If you are looking for things once the tava is on the heat, it can overheat quickly and destroy the nonstick coating.
  2. Adding a little oil or butter to the tava may enhance the color, taste and texture of many foods.
  3. Eggs should be cooked on the low to medium temperatures. Highest heat hardness the protein, resulting in ruby eggs.
  4. Eggs, batters, dough's and fillings should be at room temperature before beginning to cook.
  5. To prevent sticking when rolling out rounds of dough, slightly flatten balls and press the balls/ coils lightly in flour on both sides. Shake off excess flour and roll out .
