Apni Mitti is a Pakistan‑based brand that offers natural clay cookware (mitti ke bartan), terracotta kitchen items and related accessories.
The focus is on traditional, toxin‑free cooking and sustainable products for a healthier kitchen.
Yes, Apni Mitti products are made from natural, food‑safe clay and are designed to be free from harmful chemicals and toxic coatings.
They are meant to be a safer alternative to many plastic, low‑quality metal or non‑stick cookware options.
Before first use, soak the new clay pot in clean water for a few hours so the clay can absorb moisture evenly.
After soaking, cook a simple dish like plain rice or daal on low heat once and discard it; this helps season the pot and reduce the chance of cracks.
Clay pots are best used on gas stoves on low to medium flame for gentle, slow cooking.
They are ideal for dishes like daal, sabzi, curries, yakhni, rice and other slow‑cooked meals, and some designs may also be suitable for oven use at moderate temperature if used carefully.
Let the pot cool down completely before washing it, then clean it with warm water and a soft scrubber.
Avoid harsh detergents and metal scrubbers; if you need to use soap, choose a mild, fragrance‑free one in a small amount and rinse very well so smells do not stay in the clay.
Apni Mitti offers delivery across Pakistan through courier services, with typical delivery times of a few working days depending on your city.
If an item arrives broken or clearly damaged, you should contact the team quickly with your order details and photos so they can review it and assist according to their return and refund policy.
