Tandoors

Tandoors

Tandoors are traditional cylindrical clay ovens used primarily in Indian, Middle Eastern, and Central Asian cuisines. Heated with charcoal or gas, tandoors reach extremely high temperatures, enabling the rapid cooking of a variety of dishes. Common foods prepared in a tandoor include naan, roti, kebabs, and tandoori meats, which acquire a distinctive smoky flavor and crispy exterior. The high heat and unique design of tandoors allow for even cooking and the creation of signature textures and tastes that are central to many culinary traditions.
