Bhai Sahib Kulbir Singh Jeeo can you or some other Singh or Singhnia share with me on how make New Sarbloh Bhandey Tyar-Bar-Tyar for cooking.

With the apaar bakshish of Satguru Jee, daas has finally got access to New Sarbloh Bhandey. The problem here is Not with Washing the Bhandey. I can scrub them and make them shining.

The problem comes while cooking. While cooking in 13 inch diameter Sarbloh Bata some kind of black lusture is coming out and turning the cooked food into blackish. Also, I cannot keep the cooked food in Sarbloh Bhandey (i.e. the Bata in which it is cooked) for long time (say 2 hour of more) because by that time black lustre takes over and throws some kind of weird smell. Are these things normal with New Sarbloh Bhandey ?

Daas has got Sarbloh Bhandey from Damdami Taksal Shop (Mehta / Bhindrawale, the shop opp. to Gulati Tailor) which is near Darbar Sahib Complex, Amritsar. So, I am assuming the Sarbloh Bhandey is 100% authentic.

Daas has been out of home for studies and now job and had been cooking in Steel Bhandey for long time and is proven cook So cooking pattern is not to be blamed.

Back in my pind (village), I found lot of sand and had scrubbed off all the rust and made Sarbloh Bhandey shining. In city it is difficult to find sand so I am washing the Bhandey with regular Liquid Dish Wash and iron-wire-scrubber. Soon after washing, I dry out the Bhandey with clean dry cloth and never let Bhandey to be wet for long time to dry out naturally by air.

Finally, I am clueless where the things are going wrong. It will be great help is you may shed some light on making New Sarbloh Bhandey Tyar-Bar-Tyar for cooking.

Bhul Chuk Maaf.

Try Waheguru Simran while cooking? I transfer my cooked food soon after cooked to non-sarbloh, then eat in sarbloh bowl.
Also, squeezing some lemon juice in food (if above does not prevent black discharge) might help?

Thank you for the responses!

The Sarbloh utensils give the Tatt of Sarbloh to the food cooked in it and for this reason some foods e.g. Daal etc. get darker than the one cooked in worldly utensils. This is normal for Gursikhs.

After cooking, many Gursikhs take food out of Sarbloh and store it in a utensil that is neutral i.e. does not give its Tatt to the food. Some of the neutral utensils are traditionally of clay or cheeni, or even glass but many Gursikhs also take food out in stainless steel for storage purpose. When it's time to eat this stored food, it's again placed in Sarbloh utensils if it requires heating or put straight into Sarbloh Baata or Thaali, for eating.

The Sarblohi Gursikh must cook, heat and eat food in Sarbloh but for long term, food can be kept in a neutral Dhaat utensil.

Everyone can't be Sarblohi. Some people don't like the taste and they hesitate from being Sarblohi but fortunate ones, always love the taste of Sarbloh cooked food.

Bahut Bahut Dhanwaad Bhai Sahib for the useful advice. I have started transfering cooked food to Stainless Steel but soon will find out Cheeni Miti or Glass utensil to store it.

After 2 ardaas bhandeys were all set

Another thought which Guru Maharaaj put in my brain was that I need not scrub sarbloh bhandey too much to make it shining like mirror as I do not need to see my face in it but cook food and eat in it. Normal washing makes it perfectly fine and now lusture is not coming out.

That is true. Guru Maharaaj has tested my paitence, yearning and finally done Nadar of Sarbloh.
Now, Bhandey are in Chardi Kala.

Bhul Chuk Maaf.

thanks goes to Waheguru, Jaskirat bethey ji

So food cannot be heated in non-sarbloh in microwave prior to eating ji?
Bhul chuk muaf
