I am 1975 born and this man kalaiwala was our scientist during childhood days and that machine with that handle was a great device 🤣😂🤣😀😃👍👍👍👌👌 Feeling Nostalgic :) thanks to the internet, one can get to see anything anytime.
Yes. I have fond memories of childhood too. Mummy wud tell me to take the utensils to the kalaiwala who wud come with his cart on the street below. And we kids wud watch with fascination the entire process. Now i realise how hard they work. In hot scorching summer heat, the man wud stand under a nearby tree with his cart. Hats off to these guys Today i have brass utensils but finding a kalaiwala has become a rare phenomenon 😟
Childhood memories.... When we the Kalaiwala used to come to get it done at homes in Walled City..... Thanks chef.... For having faith in our old culture....
In Gujarat there is a saying - jeno kaam teno karo , doosro koro goto kahyo ! So please let the guy do what he is best for and yes he is a magician of his trade ! Salute for his skills and hard work !
Chef Harish Tiwari - Thank you for this video. The western world discovered canned food, tetra pack and tin foils in the twentieth century, while Indians have been tinning their copper, bronze and brass vessels since thousands of years. This goes to show how advanced our ancient understanding of Chemistry was. Another reason to be proud of Indian culture. This video made me happy reminding me of childhood memories.
@@JohnDoe-vr8zl I don't know if the real facts hurt you but Indians are under attack atleast for 800 years under muslim and british rulers. we may not be able to prove or having enough knowledge on what exist with our ancestors, I can definetly say there is an Iron pillar which modern metallurgy cannot explain, There are bronze statues and utensils in temples used for 100's of years.

Qalai is a traditional Indian process of coating copper and brass utensils with tin. It is a safe process that has been used for centuries to make copper utensils more durable and non-reactive with food. The tin coating protects the copper from the harmful effects of air and moisture, which can cause it to corrode and tarnish. It also prevents copper ions from leaching into food, which can be toxic and can cause copper poisoning. Qalai is a non-toxic food-safe coating. It is also biodegradable and recyclable. However, it is important to note that the tin coating can wear away over time, so it is important to re-tin your copper utensils every few months. The content of the qalai coating is mainly tin. It may also contain a small amount of zinc, which can help to improve the durability of the coating. Other materials that may be used in the qalai coating include lead and arsenic. However, these materials should only be present in very small amounts and should not pose a health risk. It is important to note that the quality of qalai coatings can vary depending on the craftsman who applies them. Some craftsmen may use high-quality materials and traditional methods, while others may use lower quality materials or shortcuts in the application process. As a result, it is important to find a reputable craftsman who has a good reputation for producing high-quality qalai coatings. If you are considering purchasing qalai-coated copper utensils, it is important to ask the seller about the materials that were used to make the coating. You should also avoid purchasing utensils from sellers who cannot provide information about the coating materials.
Sweet old memories of childhood This happens to be one of the main time pass when the kalaiwala use to comes in lane for doing kalai on untensils made of brass
All copper cookware has to be tinned to keep food from pulling the copper metal and giving it a metallic flavor. Brass cookware although not as good as copper can also be treated the same way. The downside of brass is it is much more likely to have lead in it from various recycling streams. The ammonium chloride block the guy briefly shows you is broken up to form the white powder he rubs the rag or cotton material in. It is a flux, and is what makes the white smoke you see. Other things and fluxes will work, but ammonium chloride ( aka sal ammoniac) is a time tested favorite. He should be using pure tin to 'tin' the pot, but given the economics of his trade it could be almost anything, including lead solder. For those wanting to try this at home you could use lead free solder, available in hardware stores. Make sure the solder says lead free. It will usually be 99+% Tin (St = Latin Stannum= Tin). The remaining percentage will be copper or silver. You can also buy pure tin on the internet, but make sure it's pure and doesn't contain any lead. A Tinker was a person who used to travel around and repair cooking vessels. Copper pots could be patched, riveted, and even small holes filled with tin or a copper rivet. A large copper, brass or iron pot was a family treasure. To my eye he just put on enough tin to make it shiny and it won't last long.
@@70newlife Tin itself can be considered non toxic in this application. No doubt you could poison somebody with enough of it's compounds, but using it to coat cooking ware is a safe time tested procedure.

All the complex modern technology evolved around these simple creations. The history of technology is the history of the invention of tools and improvement of techniques to the sophisticated machinery of the present day, but there are people who still depend on antiquities, remaining from ancient times, for their livelihood. These people are proud of their profession, and believe me, this is our heritage, no matter which part of the world you are from if you really want to help them, buy what they produce.
They r now like once upon a time ... In my childhood i used to watch em doin dis ... But now they r nomore in pakistan ... Its good to c em in india n also good to c dat copper n brass pots r bein used in india ...
Utensils are very important in our life . Nowadays people use nonstick utensils with teflon layer which can cause many problems to our health.. ancient Bharat was way ahead in everything sadly we are adopting western things
In my childhood days these kalaiman used to visit our colony in Karachi all the neighbours brought their pots pans etc to polish at one place where he dug a hole to make fire place for the procedure .we used to watch him work and wanted to see pots & pans shine at that time my parents had a huge collection of copper things big round sanies pots pans big spoons even farshies of hukkas
Rates for this used to be per Kori (twenty items) not in dozens etc and was between rupees 12 to 14 in pre Sixty Era. Mashkis and Kalaykars had almost disappeared from/in Delhi.
True bro they were great and we should be proud of them, but we have become dumb and westernised and become communists which is failed concept and forgot our own culture.

Rishi kesh - Earlier, most vessels were made of copper, bronze or sometimes even brass. The common metal element among the three is copper. Now when people cook food in copper, bronze or brass some extremely small amount of elemental copper gets dispersed into the food and finds its way into the human body. The human body can only tolerate extremely low amounts of metal in the body, and the kidney tries to filter out the excess copper. However, even kidneys have a limit of how much copper or other metals they can cleanse. People cooking food in copper based vessels regularly, in some cases exceed this limit, causing a condition called copper toxicity. The process you see lines the copper vessel with tin. This makes the vessel inert and protects the copper from dispersing into food. Tin on the other hand is inert, and can easily be cleansed by the kidneys. So this process of lining copper based vessels with tin is done as a precaution to prevent conditions like cirrhosis, Wilson's syndrome, Alzheimer's and other conditions caused by excess copper.
Then his so called secret known to tens of thousands of craftsmen as well as any industrialist manufacturing this stuff. Only common people won't know and in a generation or two can be fooled by some rotten process used by future manufacturers. These people are not inventors this has been common process used for hundreds of years.
Brass(peetal) reacts with food especially acidic and changes the taste. You can't leave food in brass utensils after cooking and had to remove soon after, but in earlier time brass was used to make kitchen utensils. So the polishing of Tin (kalai) was invented so that people keep on using the existing utensils. However eating in brass bowl, tumbler, dishes is good for health except sour food.
Copper reacts with oxygen in air and produces blue layer (may be copper or Cupric oxide) on copper vessel which mixes with food on cooking in it and if such food is consumed it causes food poisoning and diarrhoea vomitting etc . So if copper vessel is coated with Tin metal (that procedure is called Kalai) then it prevents oxidation of copper so no problem in cooking . So if u r using copper vessel for Cooking , Kalai is must
I believe this is tin plate on top of copper which is poisonous. Also Aluminium should not be used, nor should non stick be used. I bought I clay pots made in India or I use stainless steel, in the past I’ve used flame proof Pyrex too.
It's not a tin plate on top of copper, it's a polish material for copper and it's not poisonous, it's apply on copper to protect from chemical reaction from the vassal by cooking long time on it.
Harish Tiwari sorry for my unclear post! I meant that copper is poisonous not Tin. Tin makes the copper useable. Anyway I did a quick check and this is what I found: intangibleheritage.intach.org/history-of-tin-coating-of-metallic-utensils-in-india/ It is indeed tin.

All the complex modern technology evolved around these simple creations. The history of technology is the history of the invention of tools and improvement of techniques to the sophisticated machinery of the present day, but there are people who still depend on antiquities, remaining from ancient times, for their livelihood. These people are proud of their profession, and believe me, this is our heritage, no matter which part of the world you are from if you really want to help them, buy what they produce.
They r now like once upon a time ... In my childhood i used to watch em doin dis ... But now they r nomore in pakistan ... Its good to c em in india n also good to c dat copper n brass pots r bein used in india ...
Utensils are very important in our life . Nowadays people use nonstick utensils with teflon layer which can cause many problems to our health.. ancient Bharat was way ahead in everything sadly we are adopting western things

Salute to you uncle ji aapk kitni mehnat krte ho💖👍👍👍👍
Thank u for sharing ,this process is very good ,cooking in these vessels provided micro nutrients required for our body.
I remember good old days when such workers use to come on street and collect utensils for tin polish. Thanks
Thank you!
In my childhood days these kalaiman used to visit our colony in Karachi all the neighbours brought their pots pans etc to polish at one place where he dug a hole to make fire place for the procedure .we used to watch him work and wanted to see pots & pans shine at that time my parents had a huge collection of copper things big round sanies pots pans big spoons even farshies of hukkas
Super 👌👌. Excellent skill. Very miticulously executed job. God bless.
Increïble mi amigo!!! Que oficios que hay por ahi; Espectacular :)
Bachpan ki yaad agai jab hamare gali me aate the kalai k liye TB hame bahut achha lagta tha dekhna
Bachapan yaaaad aa gaya, Tears in eyes

Rates for this used to be per Kori (twenty items) not in dozens etc and was between rupees 12 to 14 in pre Sixty Era. Mashkis and Kalaykars had almost disappeared from/in Delhi.

Yes this is very old technique street hawkers use to go round in remote village areas in 60s & 70s and do this practice once or twice every quarter.

What is the importance of this process ?
Ghanta
Rishi kesh - Earlier, most vessels were made of copper, bronze or sometimes even brass. The common metal element among the three is copper. Now when people cook food in copper, bronze or brass some extremely small amount of elemental copper gets dispersed into the food and finds its way into the human body. The human body can only tolerate extremely low amounts of metal in the body, and the kidney tries to filter out the excess copper. However, even kidneys have a limit of how much copper or other metals they can cleanse. People cooking food in copper based vessels regularly, in some cases exceed this limit, causing a condition called copper toxicity.
The process you see lines the copper vessel with tin. This makes the vessel inert and protects the copper from dispersing into food. Tin on the other hand is inert, and can easily be cleansed by the kidneys. So this process of lining copper based vessels with tin is done as a precaution to prevent conditions like cirrhosis, Wilson's syndrome, Alzheimer's and other conditions caused by excess copper.

please don't do it yourself, let these people make earning for themselves. Asking this innocent man his business secret was utterly cheap.
👌👍
Then his so called secret known to tens of thousands of craftsmen as well as any industrialist manufacturing this stuff. Only common people won't know and in a generation or two can be fooled by some rotten process used by future manufacturers. These people are not inventors this has been common process used for hundreds of years.
Was searching for this video for so long....Finally I got it
what is the use of doing kalai on vessels? any explanation
To protect food from chemical reaction with vessel's metal.
It is good for health
It increases taste immunity and helps to preserve the nutrients of the food intact
Brass(peetal) reacts with food especially acidic and changes the taste. You can't leave food in brass utensils after cooking and had to remove soon after, but in earlier time brass was used to make kitchen utensils. So the polishing of Tin (kalai) was invented so that people keep on using the existing utensils. However eating in brass bowl, tumbler, dishes is good for health except sour food.
Copper reacts with oxygen in air and produces blue layer (may be copper or Cupric oxide) on copper vessel which mixes with food on cooking in it and if such food is consumed it causes food poisoning and diarrhoea vomitting etc . So if copper vessel is coated with Tin metal (that procedure is called Kalai) then it prevents oxidation of copper so no problem in cooking . So if u r using copper vessel for Cooking , Kalai is must
हमारे घर में पीतल के बर्तन इस्तेमाल होते हैं जिनको कलई करवा कर लाने में बहुत अच्छा लगता है।

Jasta= Zinc

Sabse poshtik Khana banta h peettal k bartan mei ... Sabse ghatiya aluminium mei
वह जो स्टिक हैं उसिसे होता हैं कमाल अब भी होता हैं यह 👌👌👌😯😯
I believe this is tin plate on top of copper which is poisonous. Also Aluminium should not be used, nor should non stick be used. I bought I clay pots made in India or I use stainless steel, in the past I’ve used flame proof Pyrex too.
It's not a tin plate on top of copper, it's a polish material for copper and it's not poisonous, it's apply on copper to protect from chemical reaction from the vassal by cooking long time on it.
Harish Tiwari sorry for my unclear post! I meant that copper is poisonous not Tin. Tin makes the copper useable. Anyway I did a quick check and this is what I found:

There is no original & fake Kalai process, it's depends on the person how professional is the person who do the process.
