(i) TANDOOR CARE:
"•Use a stiff brush to clean clay pot; never use water or any liquid.
•Empty charcoal ashes from combustion drawer between each use.
•The clay pot of the Hômdoor may crack. Cracking of the clay pot
is natural, due to the stress of high temperatures. It is not a structural
concern. You can continue to use your Hômdoor for many years even
though it may develop cracks.
(ii) COOKING TIPS:
"•Place the larger pieces to cook in the middle of the tandoor.
•To retain heat, keep lid partially closed while cooking.
•Although the clay tandoor and insulation have been pre-heated,
ambient moisture may drip out as water when the Homdoor is heated. This is
normal and will not affect performance.
•When in use, do not cover mouth completely with the lid as it will
overheat.

(a spice that is the dried unripe fruit ("berries") of Pimenta dioica , a
mid-canopy tree native to the Greater Antilles, southern Mexico and Central
America, now cultivated in many warm parts of the world./ The name "allspice
" was coined as early as 1621 by the English, who thought it combined the
flavour of cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves)

the fat and food juices that drip on to the charcoal)
