What is clay cookware and why do people use it?

Clay cookware is made from natural clay and used for cooking, baking and serving food. People like it because it is chemical-free, cooks food gently and can improve flavour and aroma.

Is clay cookware safe for everyday cooking?

Yes, good quality clay cookware made from food-safe, lead-free clay is safe for daily use. It does not release toxic chemicals into your food like some low-quality metal or non-stick coatings can.

How do I prepare a new clay pot before first use?

Before first use, soak the new clay pot in clean water for a few hours so the clay can absorb moisture. After that, cook a simple dish like plain rice or daal on low heat once and discard it; this helps season the pot and make it stronger.

On which stoves and in which ways can I use clay cookware?

Clay pots are best used on gas stoves on low to medium flame for slow, gentle cooking. Many clay pots can also be used in the oven at moderate temperature, but sudden high heat or quick temperature changes should always be avoided.

How should I clean and care for clay cookware?

Let the pot cool down completely, then wash it with warm water and a soft scrubber. Avoid harsh detergents and metal scrubbers; if you use soap, choose a mild, fragrance-free one in a small amount and rinse very well.

What should I do if my clay pot cracks or breaks?

Small hairline cracks can sometimes be managed by gentle use and proper seasoning. If the pot is deeply cracked or broken, it should not be used on direct heat and is better kept only for dry storage or decoration.

Founder & Co‑Founder of Hamari Mitti

Founder – Umer Naeem

Hamari Mitti was founded by Umer Naeem, a passionate believer in natural and traditional living. He grew up seeing how our parents and grandparents used clay in their kitchens, and he always felt a strong connection with mitti. He started this brand to bring clay back into modern homes and daily life in a safe, stylish, and easy way. His vision is to reconnect people with healthier cooking, natural materials, and our cultural roots. Through Hamari Mitti, Umer wants every home to feel closer to the earth with pure, handcrafted clay products made by skilled local artisans.
Umer also focuses on educating people about why clay matters. He believes that when we choose clay over plastic, metal, or chemical-coated cookware, we protect our health as well as our environment. For him, Hamari Mitti is not just a business, it is a movement to respect our soil, support local communities, and revive forgotten traditions in a modern way.

Our Story & Vision

Hamari Mitti started with a simple question: why did we move away from something so natural and powerful as clay? From this question, a journey began to bring back mitti in a clean, modern, and trustworthy form. The team works with local potters and craftsmen who shape each piece by hand, keeping every product unique and full of character. This not only supports traditional skills but also provides income to families who have been working with clay for generations.
The vision of Hamari Mitti is to create a lifestyle where people feel proud to cook, serve, and live with clay. It is about slowing down, cooking with care, and connecting with what is real. Every pot, plate, and cup tells a story of our soil, our culture, and our people. When you choose Hamari Mitti, you are not just buying a product; you are becoming part of a movement to come back to our roots.
