The non -toxic chef’s swear exchange approved with the editor

I test cooking dishes for my livelihood. As an editor for serious eaters, my kitchen is a parade of pots and pans, utensils and devices. Although I am not everything I test (can you imagine a home with over a dozen coffee machines?), I am sometimes influenced to improve my equipment after completing a test or read the reviews of my colleagues. I added more non -toxic cooking dishes to my kitchen, and this is no coincidence. We have been testing non-toxic devices in mind for years, of course, an important part of essentials such as cutting boards and pan-pans. Here are some swaps that I made at home and loved.

Stainless steel is of course non -toxic. It is not necessary to always worry chemicals when they cook with it, even on strong heat. Besides, you don’t have to baby. Let it soap in a soap sink or scrub the Dickens out with your most abrasion Die. I cooked with with Stainless steel fees For years (so I learned to sauté in the cooking school), but I recently added this beautiful Le Creuset 12-inch pan in my kitchen, and I am so happy that I did it. The spacious surface gives me a lot of space to shake and throw so that the food is browned nicely. And there is zero Hot spots in this pan. It is the best stainless steel pan I have ever used.

I live in one pancake A house. We shoot flapjacks eight out of seven morning a week. And while I see the advantages of A Traditional not -layer panI loved this non -toxic, really not standing misery. You can scrub it with soap and water (like not -stick) and it loosens slightly sticky ingredients (like not -stick), but it is certain to use with metal utensils and contains zero -forum chemicals (definitely not as not -stick). I also recommended it to my friends and family.

Plastic cutting board Are so comfortable: use it and throw them in the dishwasher. But I had cut the same for over two years and recently noticed that it was emitted with countless knife lines. I wondered where this plastic had gone and didn’t feel good at the answer. I replaced my plastic plate a new oneBut I use it less often. For most of my food preparation, I use a heavy end grain Wooden board This is naturally antibacterial – wooden traps bacteria under its surface, where it dies. My colleagues with serious food love The Boardmith Maple Board. I have a Boos Maple BlockAnd recommend that too!

Remains are part of life. No matter whether you were delayed the rest of the last night Lentils Or portion a Big riceYou need a few good containers to keep everything. I used to use plastic deli containers for my leftovers, but recently I switched to glass containers that did not pour pfas out. Rubbermaid Brilliance’s glass containers have won Our evaluationAnd I am happy to be able to report that you deserve the title very much. The locking liders are great – they are never leaked, even if I have thrown them into a shopping bag. And the glass doesn’t color. I still have a few plastic containers, but I plan to replace them all with more rubberaid glass.

I recently learned that black plastic utensils can contain harmful chemicals. Although I have nothing, I was grateful for the information because I was on the market for a sieve. I originally thought of a plastic, the pasta out of one Stickpot. Instead, I bought a metal spider sieve that is non -toxic and versatile. my colleague grace Recommends the hiking sieve that was everything I had to hear. It’s great! I like how big it is, and so far I have used it to cook pasta, fry vegetable temura and for blanching peas.

Electrical grid have put a long way since it was founded – some are now coated with ceramicWhich is of course non -toxic. But I am devoted to mine Cast iron frying panwhich tears hot and does not take up as much storage space. This of Lodge consists of the same high -performance material as the company’s cast iron pan and is reversible. One side is smooth (perfect for eggs) and the other side has ridden (ideal for burgers).

I hesitate to give my friend’s children our tender Drinking glassesBut I don’t feel good at letting them drink them out of plastic (as unbreakable as it is). Instead, we bought a lot of stainless steel cups. We leave you next to us Water filterSo the children can moisture mirror whenever they want. They are easy to wash and break.

Be baked Banana bread from A Laib Pan Is not a little task! For years I used an unstoppable pan that made it easier. But it was scratched and the non -stick coating was no longer unclear. The replacement, a ceramic pan from Great Jones, is a much better tool. It publishes baked goods as smoothly as unbound pans, and it is with an oven and 450 ° F. I even got a few compliments for its funny color.
