Beware of the Aluminium!

November 20th 2008 01:08
According to the current research, it has shown that more than half the cookware on the market today is made from aluminum. This is most likely because aluminum is a good conductor of heat and used frequently with non-stick pots and pans.

Below here are some tips to you should follow, especially if you're dealing with the aluminium stuffs:

1. You should not store highly acidic or salty foods in aluminum cookware and foods. Those foods, such astomato sauce or citrus fruits that are in contact with cookware for a long period of time will absorb aluminum.

2. When storing acidic or salty foods, Aluminum foil should be avoided as well.


3. It is unlikely that significant amounts of aluminum are released from aluminum cookware and, thus, cooking in aluminum is not considered dangerous.

4. It is important to make sure the surface of the cookware is undamaged and, if it is, throw it away.

I have a tough time trusting aluminum cookware; heavy metal detoxification takes a while and I already have enough problems with that from exposure to agent orange.

I knew the inconvenience and frustration, Nevar and do you have any methods to overcome the problem?

I use stainless pots and pans or corning ware; aluminum pots only when I am canning smoked fish or other Alaskan treats.
