Are copper cookware sets safe or poisonous?
Yes, copper is not toxic. If you are for some reason sensitive to copper due to an allergy or disease however, this would probably be a bad idea. If you are concerned about consuming too much copper, avoid cooking acidic things in the pot, they will leech more of the copper. But you should be fine anyway.
How do you clean glass cookware?
Hardware shops sell a product for use on glass stove tops called "Hob Cleaner Paste".
Put less than a teaspoon sized blob of the paste onto the hob and use a dry paper kitchen towel to spread it out all over the ring area, rubbing just a little. The idea is to let that cleaner paste dry off. Then use the paper kitchen towel to rub the dried cleaner paste into the stains over and over and, hopefully, you may get most of them off.
However you may be unlucky to remove all the stains first time so use the hob cleaner paste several times over several weeks. Even then, some stains may remain forever if they were allowed to get "burnt" into the glass surface..
Some people recommend using a special type of metal handled scraper that is specially made for use on glass stove tops. It has a razor blade mounted on it. You can try using one but you'd have to use it very carefully and be sure not to "cut" or scratch the surface. There is no point in damaging the surface permanently by attacking it too violently with a sharp tool of any type.

Wait until it is cool, wipe some water on it, wait five minutes, wipe the water off.
you can use cerama bryte to clean stove top you can get it at lowes
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There are many products made to clean glass stovetops. They are basically all the same. Follow the directions and get all of the product off with repeated wipings.

In the UK a product called "HOB BRiTE" is what I use and it does a good job at keeping my hob looking showroom new after 10 years.

MAKE SURE YOUR STOVE IS TURNED OFF - VERY IMPORTANT... THEN, COAT YOUR STOVE TOP IN A LAYER OF DAWN DISH DETERGENT AND COVER WITH A PLASTIC TRASH BAG OVERNIGHT NEXT MORNING, USE A SOFT COTTON RAG WET WITH HOT WATER TO CLEAN OFF YOUR STOVE TOP. IT SHOULD REMOVE THE GREASE EASILY.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Another option is: A cheap product that works REALLY well for glass stovetops is "WEIMAN" GLASS COOKTOP CLEANER, which can be purchased at WalMart for about $4.00. I swear by it. It doesn't matter what I cook, my glasstop looks new after I clean it. Says it can also be used for glass fireplace doors. To use, you pour it on a cool stove, rub with paper towel or sponge, and wipe off. Voila!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You scrape as much off as you can with a single-edge razor blade in a holder. What remains, you polish off with an approved abrasive paste and a rag. Cerabrite is one brand that you can use. Do not use a harsh abrasive because it may scratch the surface.

I heard silicone utensils aren't safe. Is it best to use melamine or silicone on nonstick cookware?
Any of the above. When did silicone become unsafe? Overheat melamine and you get toxins forming in the partially combusted or pyrolized material from which it's made. (Any melamine discolored from exposure to heat is best discarded.) Overheat silicone and you get silicone. Replace any utensil that has been heat damaged to remove any doubts. Any of the products will work well if the manufacturers' instructions are followed. Don't have them handy? Use common sense. Or WikiAnswers. Bon appétit.
What is the difference between 304 stainless steel and 316 stainless steel cookware?
18/10 Stainless steel has 18 percent chromium (added for hardness) and 10 percent nickel (added for shininess). 18/8 has 18 percent chromium and 10 percent nickel. So the 18?10 has a higher shine and 18/8 has more of a matte looking finish. It's appearance only.
What element is used in refrigerator-to-oven cookware?
The most widely used material for resistive heat is boron. Chromium is sometimes used as well; however, due to its properties that resist change when exposed to an extreme temperature change, boron is used more often than chromium. When chromium is used, it is usually combined along with boron...

The recent increase in reality television shows, featuring cooking has prompted a glut of home chefs in need of tool, tip, and technique suggestions. What is the best cookware is a question that you must look at with a relative eye. What would be classified as "best" of course depends on what you plan to cook in the cookware and your price point. The most important consideration you must make when choosing the proper cookware FOR YOU is of course the constructed material of the cookware. For example if you are purchasing cookware because you intend to do a lot of braising where you will need even distribution of heat, cooper cookware is the way to go. However, cooper cookware can be expensive, so if you are on a limited budget you may not want to invest in this type of cookware. Cooper is also a reactive metal. Copper does not hold up well under cleaning or lots of cooking. It scratches and loses its color and also tends to meld into whatever you're cooking in it. Aluminum is another reactive metal, however, a great choice if you want great even heat. It is a soft metal so it wont hold up. It is however inexpensive, therefore, if cost is a large issue for you, consider Aluminum. If you make this choice I suggest anodized, chemically treated, to reduce the reactivity. Cast Iron can be a consideration if you are going the lesser expensive route. It is a great for very high temperature cooking. It can go straight from the stovetop to the oven. Cast Iron is another reactive metal that will rust, pit, and stick to your food. Most of these things can be avoided if you "season" your cast iron before you use it to cook in. In my opinion, Stainless Steel is a great choice. It provides great conductivity of heat, it's priced reasonably, and it's durable. If you select a high quality Stainless Steel pan, like those sold by the pampered chef, you will notice the sides and bottoms are reinforced with aluminum. For a quality Stainless Steel pan you will not have to worry about scratching, wear and tear, or your food tasting like metal. The bottom line really is, if you want to create culinary delights you must make the investment in high quality cookware. The degree of your choice really depends on the type of cooking, and your wallet. Get yourself a good 12" covered stainless steel skillet; this should be suitable for most needs.
A chamber pot is a small usually ceramic bowl with a handle that is primarily used for urinating or defecation by medical patients who are bed ridden.
