The customary method for storing rotis before serving has been mulmul cloth for as long as there have been records of rotis. For big joint families living and dining together, a sizable number of rotis were methodically made, placed hot in mulmul or muslin cloth, and then contained in brass, copper, terracotta, wooden, or steel boxes.
Now, when the dinner arrived within an hour and the rotis were served, they were still warm and steaming with the roti enticing aroma. The mulmul roti cloth custom has been passed down from generation to generation, making its way into our school and workplace lunch boxes as well. Even rotis wrapped in traditional cloth for a day or two preserved their flavour.
Since aluminium does not absorb moisture, the laws of packing changed and we were no longer allowed to box hot rotis; instead, they had to cool on the rack first before being packed. This was presented to us a few decades ago. Until concerns about the negative consequences of aluminium foil and the difficulty of disposing of it began to surface, a trend was widely seen. When health concerns about aluminium foil surfaced, it was like striking a wall. Reverting to what we had deemed unsanitary was the other choice.
But now that Roti Wrap cloth composed of cutting-edge non-woven fabric has been purchased by supermarkets and internet retailers. We appear to have scored a home run. This fabric meets all of our needs for our Dear LunchBoxes in terms of health, hygiene, and that fresh taste in every bite, and it is just what we have been looking for.
