Traditional Brass Spice Box (Masala Dabba/ Anjaraipetti)
₹3,145.00
- Spice box is an integral part of every Indian cuisine and brass was the preferred alloy for making the same for many centuries.
- Reason for brass being used traditionally is because Zinc which is a metal part of the alloy has immense anti-oxidant properties and helps to preserve the anti-onxidant benefits of all the spices we generally use. Anti-oxidants, as per modern research, helps fight cancer cells in our body.
- The age old spice boxes started with just 5 compartments (thereby the name Anjaraipetti in Tamil) but with more spices being incorporated in our cooking, the box compartments has increased to 7.
- The content of the various compartments varies with region and geography but the essence remains the same, to provide quick access to the spices as and when we do the tadka.
- Traditional old boxes used to come with a plate between the compartments and the lid to hold dry red chillies.
