Great tip, luckily this hasn’t happen to us so far…
But if it does, would we do this between every Dosa or just once in the beginning before starting?

Big fan of your site, but it’s annoying to see so many spelling mistakes all the time. You should consider using a spell check!

You can also use half an onion or potato and rub on the tawa.. Dosas will not stick…

Hetal, Anuja..Looks like the tawa you have is a cast iron tawa. I just bought one Paula Deen brand cast iron tawa too but the dosa stuck too it the first time I used it. It said it was pre-seasoned. How do I make sure the dosa does not stick to it (new cast iron tawa)?

It is available at Walmarts, Krogers etc and also at some of the Indian grocery stores. The one brand that comes to our mind is ‘Fleischmann’ , but a lot of stores have their own brands as well that are just as good. Look for yeast in the baking aisle and are available in bottles and little packets.

HI Anuja and Hetal,
Do you think it will be O.K. to use rice flour or dal flour for cleaning a cast iron griddle used for making dosas for gluten sensitive people?
Thanks

Hi Deepika,
This was one of those “mystery” tips that work even though we are not certain why. In such a case, we are not sure if it is the flour that is helping or something in the flour (in this case, wheat). Sorry couldn’t be of more help.

Hi Pavithra,
No, just brush off the atta with a paper towel.
