Re: Purchasing a Tawa
^ hahaha. awesome! i wonder why i didn't think of that myself :D
Brain power. :halo:
wow..that's for all your replies!
LDH - so the heavier the tawa, the better it is? hmm..interesting. how much did you get yours for? i never liked the heavy one's cause ..well, i just never liked 'em :p the one my mom's got is nice and light, but she's got the upside down one..and then has another one to make parathas on.
I remember when I was lil.. ma mom also had an upside down tawaa.. Got it from Pakistan back then.. I called it belly tawaa..:D Used that one for many many yrs..!
Well its not THAT heavy.. I mean.. Its easy to lift, but it was a bit heavier compared to the other tawaa's I've seen at the shop.. Ehm.. I paid around 15 pounds for this tawaa coz it was by Mittal.. all other tawaa's (same size) were around 10 pounds or less..

Real Tawas are concave in shape and you flip them over and they become convex ..
anyway, another reason of Tawa cook the way it does is because of Black color. If you paint the same Tawaa white, it wont give you the same taste, texture of your roti ..
Re: Purchasing a Tawa
alrighty..so anyone know the english word for tawa? i was thinking of trying to find them at the regular angrassi stores, but i wouldn't know what to ask for...
any ideas?
TLK - stupid question..but isn't the tawa black cause it's made of iron? i'm guessing you mean to say that they paint it black?
