Question

Why is it necessary to close the lid of an earthen pot every time after use

Answer 1

It is necessary to close the lid of an earthen pot after use to avoid dust from getting accumulated inside it. The dust particles tend to stick on to the inner surface of the pot in between the clay and becomes difficult to remove easily. This makes the food unhygienic and unhealthy when it is being cooked.

Answer 2

If we dont close the lid - all the dirt particles and dust will go inside the pot thereby making the food unhygienic and not suitable to consume. Therefore it is necessary to close the lid of an earthen pot every time after its use.
