Made from clay, this terracotta sprouter is an excellent choice to sprout pulses in a natural, alkaline and porous environment. Terracotta is a strong, durable material that is also naturally resistant to mold and bacteria and soaks excess water. According to ancient Ayurveda, it is said that clay helps retain over 97% of the nutritive value of food, making it a much healthier, sustainable and eco-friendly lifestyle choice. Terracotta is usually made from a fairly coarse, porous type of clay. This is first sculpted, then fired until hard. In the ancient world, it was left to harden in the hot sun, then baked in primitive ovens created in the ashes of open fires. Terracotta has been used in India for centuries. Traditionally, it was seen as a mystical material due to its combination of four of the five vital elements – air, earth, fire and water. It has been a mainstay of Indian construction and culture since the Indus Valley Civilization, which existed between 3300 and 1700 BC. Many ancient terracotta artifacts have been found in India, often depicting deities
