In ancient India, kitchens were an integral part of the household. They were typically small, enclosed spaces located at the back of the house. Indian kitchens were equipped with a hearth for cooking, as well as various utensils and cookware. The Indian cuisine is known for its rich flavors and aromatic spices. They used a wide variety of ingredients, including rice, lentils, vegetables, meats, and spices. Adding a chalkboard wall to an ancient Indian kitchen would provide a convenient space for writing down recipes, keeping track of menus, and making notes about ingredients and cooking techniques.
