Incorporating Ayurvedic Kansa Serving Cutlery into your dining routine promotes health and well-being. The natural properties of Kansa are believed to balance the doshas, enhancing digestion and overall health. By choosing Harishyam Arts' Kansa serveware, you're embracing a tradition that marries functionality with wellness.

Q1: What are the health benefits of using a Kansa serving bowl?

Ans :  Kansa, an alloy of copper and tin, is revered in Ayurveda for its health-promoting properties. Serving food in a Kansa bowl is believed to help balance the body's doshas (Vata, Pitta, Kapha), improve digestion, and enhance overall well-being. The metal's natural antimicrobial properties also contribute to safer food storage and consumption. 

Q2: Can I use the Kansa serving bowl for cooking?

Ans :  No, Kansa serveware is designed exclusively for serving purposes. It is not suitable for cooking, as the high temperatures can cause the metal to warp or degrade. Only casted bronze cookware is appropriate for cooking. Therefore, it's advisable to use the Kansa bowl for serving dishes like curries, dals, or desserts

Q3: How long can I store food in a Kansa bowl?

Ans :  Traditionally, Kansa was used in temples for offering food to deities, and it is suitable for storing food for up to 3-4 hours, especially if the food is not acidic. For acidic foods, it's recommended to serve and consume them within a shorter time frame to maintain the quality and safety of the food. 

Q4: Is the Kansa serving bowl safe for daily use?

Ans :  Absolutely. The Kansa serving bowl is crafted from pure bronze, making it non-toxic and safe for daily use. Unlike plastic or coated materials, it does not leach harmful chemicals into your food, ensuring a healthier dining experience. Its durability and timeless design also make it a lasting addition to your kitchenware.

Q5: Can I use the Kansa bowl for serving both hot and cold dishes?

Ans :  Yes, the Kansa serving bowl is versatile and can be used for both hot and cold dishes. Its design helps retain the temperature of the food, keeping hot dishes warm and cold dishes cool for longer periods. This makes it ideal for serving a variety of traditional Indian meals, from curries to desserts.

To preserve the beauty and longevity of your handcrafted Kansa serving bowl from Harishyam Arts, it's essential to follow proper care and maintenance guidelines. Kansa, a traditional bronze alloy, is revered for its health benefits and timeless elegance. Regular care ensures that your serveware remains a cherished part of your dining experience.

  • Cleaning Instructions After each use, promptly wash your Kansa serving bowl by hand using warm water and a mild, pH-balanced detergent. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbers, as they can damage the surface and remove the natural patina. Instead, opt for a soft sponge or cloth to gently clean the bowl. After washing, rinse thoroughly with clean water to remove any soap residue. Immediately dry the bowl with a soft, lint-free cotton cloth to prevent water spots and tarnishing. 

  • Monthly Deep Cleaning To maintain the bowl's shine and remove any oxidation, perform a deep cleaning once a month. Create a natural cleaning solution by mixing fresh lemon juice with food-grade baking soda to form a paste. Apply this paste to the bowl using a soft-bristle brush, gently scrubbing in circular motions. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry immediately with a soft cloth. 

  • Storage Recommendations When not in use, store your Kansa serving bowl in a dry, cool place. To prevent tarnishing, wrap the bowl in a soft cotton cloth or place it in a breathable pouch. Avoid storing the bowl in plastic bags, as this can trap moisture and lead to oxidation. Additionally, keep the bowl away from direct sunlight and humidity to maintain its appearance and integrity.

  • Avoid Prolonged Contact with Acidic Foods While Kansa is non-reactive to most foods, it's advisable to avoid prolonged contact with highly acidic substances like citrus, vinegar, or tamarind. Extended exposure can accelerate tarnishing and affect the bowl's finish. If acidic foods are served, ensure the bowl is cleaned promptly after use. 

By adhering to these care and maintenance practices, your Elegant Kansa Serving Bowl with Lid will continue to serve as a functional and aesthetic centerpiece in your dining setting for years to come.
