The Secret
is in the bowl…
Seems crazy, but it’s true; the perfect Balti dish is only as good as the bowl itself. With this knowledge, we embarked on a quest to try different materials, from copper to aluminum, in order to find which creates the best Balti.
After conducting many tasting sessions, we concluded that the carbon steel bowls are the best choice due to several factors.
The main element for carbon steel being the first choice is due to the amount of heat it conducts during the cooking process, which is the perfect balance, as it does not conduct too much heat when cooking the Balti, like copper does, nor too little, like stainless steel.
This balance allows the perfect amount of caramelization to occur during the cooking process…
