The Uses of the Urli

Because the structure of the container spreads heat evenly and maintains aromas, slow cooking is facilitated. Among the dishes which are commonly cooked in urlis are payasam and ghee rice, and they are still used today during celebratory occasions.

These urlis are employed to concoct therapeutic oils as well as other herbal formulations, that are then permitted to soak there for a lengthy period of time.
