Online shopping from India to where I am

[cteavin]

Hi

There are a couple of products I need to purchase including a kaldie, pressure cooker, idli pot. These items are not available where I am, so I'd like to import them. When I do a search I'm swamped with hits. I'm hoping someone can tell me a company they've used, a popular company, or one they know to have a good reputation.

Thank you much,

Steven

Premier brand has quite a collection.

I've pasted the contact list page of their site. You may want to call the closest location for query on imports.

Not sure of an online shopping site for this brand.

Hope this helps!

Thanks for the link. I do need to know more about the different brands available before I make a decision. Without walking into the kitchen, I picked up some wonderful items the last time I was in India and I hope to get the same quality or better, so thanks for recommending the brand.

Cheers,

For pressure cookers go for a hawkins or a prestige. I favour a hawkins personally. Lovely compact shape and works like a charm.

I just realized I mis-romanized. I'm looking for a Karahi. I got a PM asking why I was looking for ladies wear. (lol)

Any opinions on cast iron vs stainless? I'm still looking for an onle shop which sells them.

In case anyone was interested, I went with Futura's 7 1/2 liter karashi, 3 3/4 liter karashi, their 1 cup spice heating pan. I already have two tava's from them, and like the style. For the pressure cooker I went with Spain and purchased the 8 liter and 4 liter Duo Set from Fagor. Since they come with glass lids, I can fill in the gap in my sauce pans as they can double for both. I received everything this morning -- tonight I'm going to roast some besen and make ladoos.

I'm still looking for a idli maker. I already have two sets of trays, one non-stick, the other regular. Unfortunately, I threw away the original pot because it was flimsy. Do you think I can use one of the pressure cooker pots to make idli? The trays fit.

Cheers,

You can use any pot in which the idli pans fit.
