A “no coating” copper handi would be a copper utensil that does not have any kind of coating or lining on its interior surface, unlike many other copper utensils which may have a tin or steel lining. This kind of handi is ideal for those who prefer cooking in pure copper without any interference of other metals. The natural antibacterial properties of copper make it a popular choice for cookware. The handi typically comes with brass handles and is used for cooking Indian curries, rice dishes, and other similar dishes.
