Zishta handmade natural soapstone is naturally non-stick by the time your pot is fully seasoned and can be cooked using little to no Oil. Most of the steam/moisture & oils in the food remain in the pot so a lot of times little to no additional oil/liquids are required.

Kalchatti is made of stone (soapstone) from the earth and is designed to retain heat and keep food warm for 4-5 hours.
