Unlike non-stick or aluminum pans, cast iron retains heat evenly, which is essential for cooking crispy dosas—those delightful thin pancakes made from fermented rice and lentil batter. The uniform temperature distribution helps in achieving the perfect golden-brown crust while ensuring that the inside remains soft and flavorful. Properly seasoned, a cast iron dosa pan becomes almost naturally non-stick, allowing for easy flipping and serving without sticking or tearing the dosa.

Once cleaned, the cookware should be dried immediately and lightly coated with oil to prevent rusting. This simple maintenance routine becomes part of the cooking ritual, deepening the cook’s connection to their kitchen tools.
