Clay dahi handi is a traditional earthen pot specifically designed for storing and setting curd (yogurt). Made from natural clay, these handis have a round, wide-mouthed design that allows for easy handling and cooling of the curd. The porous nature of the clay helps keep the contents cool and fresh, enhancing the flavor and texture of the yogurt. Popular in Indian households, especially during festivals like Janmashtami, the clay dahi handi also adds a rustic, cultural touch to kitchens or as a decorative item.
