What are the advantages and disadvantages of plastic cookware?
advantages: * Inert to practically all commercial chemicals, acids, alcohols, coolants, elastomers, hydrocarbons, solvents, synthetic compounds and hydraulic fluids. * Rated for steam to 250 psi (406 degrees F) - has low volumetric expansion characteristics - easy to clean and sterilize. * Not affected by continuous flexing, vibration or impulse pressures - withstands alternating hot and cold cycling * Easier to move, handle and install than rubber hose with a comparable burst pressure rating. * The low coefficient of friction of Teflon and anti-stick properties lowers pressure drop while maintaining good service pressures. * Jackson Hose of Teflon has optional conductive liner for removing static build up through the flow path. * Will not contaminate material, fluid or gas conducted - Teflon is an FDA recognized material for food handling and pharmaceutical applications. * Handles substances such as adhesives, asphalt, dyes, greases, glue, latex, lacquers and paints with ease. * No moisture absorption, ideal as a pigtail in bulk gas handling and pneumatic systems where a low dew point is critical * Impervious to weather and can be stored for extended periods of time without aging. It will not age during service.

Is aluminized steel safe in cookware?
To assess the safety of aluminized steel in cookware you first must understand the process and construction of this type of cookware. Aluminized steel is made by coating steel with aluminum and silicon at high temperatures that cause it to diffuse into the steel creating an intermetallic layer above the steel base layer, but below the outside aluminum coating. The aluminum coating is then oxidized to form an oxide layer over the aluminum coating.
If you are baking muffins there will be no abbrasive action to disrupt the oxide layer and release toxic aluminum into your food. Baking termperatures will not get high enough for diffusion of aluminum to take place and the oxide layer will offer a protective barrier as well preventing aluminum from getting into the food. If you use muffin liners you are even safer.
If you are stove top cooking on this type of surface and scraping and abrasive action is taking place you could potentially release aluminum into your food. Washing your pans in a way that could remove the oxide layer would expose food directly to the toxic aluminum as well. This would include abbrasive scrubbing or harsh detergents.

Can you put AllClad Cookware in dishwasher?
No. Cast iron is porous material, which needs a bit of fat on it to prevent it from rusting and food from sticking. Cleaning it in a dishwasher will remove that-the seasoning as it's called.
Best way to clean it is just with water and then wiping it off.
If you have problems with food stuck to the bottom, you can always use a little salt as an abrasive to help you scrub it off. Also, boiling water will help loosen food that might be stuck. If you cast iron cookware was seasoned properly, it won't stick.
Good modern cookware is made from layers of different metals to take advantage of the different qualities of each. Stainless steel is often the outer layer because it is tough, easy to clean and doesn't react with food. However, it doesn't conduct heat well, so it often has inner layer(s) of aluminum or copper which are good heat conducters. Most cookware has these extra layers only on the bottom of the pan where it is in contact with the heat source. A few (expensive) lines of cookware (e.g. All-Clad and some KitchenAid) have this layered construction all the way up the sides of the pan, which helps to conduct the heat up the sides as well. This is what is called Full Clad and is expensive to make and buy. If you have the money, it is the way to go, but the kind of cookware with the layers only on the bottom is very good also and much less expensive. As a side note, avoid non-stick like the plague. Stainless steel cleans easily (use medium to low heat to cook) and is much healthier for you and your family. There is a company called Maxam that makes a line of "waterless" stainless steel cookware which is quite nice. You can find it all over the Internet under different brand names (look for the item number KT17) in sets for $200-$300. Also all the regular lines of cookware make stainless sets at quite reasonable prices. Enjoy your cooking!

How safe is aluminum cookware?
Yes, it is. It is done all the time. Make no mistake about it. Aluminum on the atomic level (or a bit more if a cook is overzealous with utensils in the vessel) gets into the food cooked in uncoated aluminum vessels. But the amount is so small that no toxic threat is posed and no change in taste is effected. (There is no documented evidence.) Aluminum is being linked to Alzheimer's disease (dialysis dementia). It is only fair to mention this. But the link is tenuous. Do your own research. The chemistry of aluminum won't change for the reading. Aluminum is poorly absorbed by the body and is quickly passed through the system. We have been using (uncoated) aluminum cookware for years with no demonstrated ill effects. Research is ongoing. Aluminum resists corrosion by the simple mechanism of "putting on" a thin coat of oxide when exposed to air. This "blocks" further corrosion. When we scour the pan, we remove this thin layer. Don't panic - it's only atoms thick. A good rub with a "scrubbie pad" won't hurt. The pan needs to be clean. Some things we cook in the pan will "pull off" some of the aluminum. Tomato sauces are famous for leaving a bright shine on an uncoated aluminum pot where they are simmered. Aluminum is frequently the choice of professional chefs, and the uncoated kind of aluminum, too.
What cookware is safe for glasstop stoves?
All of the "granite" type of non-stick cookware is perfectly safe for use on glass stove tops. As with all cooking, however, a close eye should always be kept on the temperature at which you are cooking. Never leave an empty cooking utensil on a hot heating element which can cause overheating damage to both the utensil and the heating element and could cause an out of control fire.
Can copper bottom revere cookware be used on a glass ceramic stove?
I have done, to boil water, for a month or more without any problems... until today, when I completely forgot I'd started it and let it boil dry and then sit there for maybe 30 minutes or more on maximum heat. The copper seemed to malt from the bottom of the pan, shedding copper dust all over the stove top. That was easy to clean up. The bigger problem was that a disc of copper about the size of a quarter seemed to transfer itself from the pan to the stove top. No amount of scrubbing with non-abrasive cleaners would shift it. I eventually scraped it off with the flat of a sharp knife, but both that and more so my earlier attempts to scrape it off with other implements, have left scratches in the top. So, yes, but expect big problems if you let it boil dry!
Is silicone cookware dangerous?
only time will tell. When I was a child Asbestos was hailed as the wonder material and look what happened. Same thing with Tephlon and plastic film wrap. They are all now scientifically identified as very unhealthy. But all in their initial use were considered fantastic breakthroughs in modern living.
As far as I know there is no such thing as silicon cookware! Silicon is a metalloid element, i.e. it behaves in some ways as a metal and in others as a non-metal. Maybe you mean borosilicate glass, as sold under the trade names Duran (the original German version from 1893) and Pyrex (1915) for example (except that in the USA Pyrex isn't borosilicate glass any more). A glass shouldn't in theory be any problem toxicologically because it locks up the materials it's made of (until it devitrifies of course, but that usually takes a long time) - and anyway borosilicates aren't thought to be toxic. (By the way, it's Teflon, not tephlon - a DuPont trade name for polytetrafluoroethylene or PTFE - and I wasn't aware that it is considered as unhealthy in normal usage)

What cookware is safe to use with a microwave?
Do not! put a metal container or anything with even the slightest bit of metal on it in the microwave! you also don't want to put thin plastics in the microwave because they tend to melt. if you do use any kind of plastic your best bet is to only use the plastic that says"microwave safe" or "oven safe".
You don't want to use the wrong kind of container when using the microwave. It could be dangerous. Microwave safe materials include glass, ceramics, paper products, and wax paper.
What is the bottom of a cooking pot made of?
Saucepans do not necessarily have any one specific metal coating their bottom, however, stainless steel works quite well. Aluminum, copper, and cast iron can all be used successfully for saucepans. I prefer stainless steel.
What is the best way to clean copper pots and pans?
Utensils with copper interiors should never be used for acidic foods, with pH of 6.0 or below, since toxic compounds can form if food is cooked, or stored, or served from such containers. Even if copper pans are lined with tin, they should not be used for acidic foods such as fruits, fruit juices, salad dressings, tomatoes, vinegar-containing foods, etc. Copper bowls may be used for beating egg whites, or copper kettles for cooking high sugar foods like fudge, for these foods are alkaline.
Utensils with copper on the bottom, or outside, and stainless steel, aluminum, or a porcelain enamel interior finish are safe to use and conduct heat well. Avoid high heat which discolors copper bottoms.
Ideally you should clean copper bottoms after each use, even though the tarnish does not affect cooking results or the pan's efficiency. Do not use an abrasive cleaner or steel wool to clean copper bottoms.
To clean tarnished copper:
Wash tarnished copper with soap and warm water and polish with a commercial cleaner. A homemade cleaner of equal parts of salt, vinegar and flour also works well. After rubbing the item with this mixture or any polish, wash it carefully, rinse thoroughly and dry.
[Info from the Home Maintenance And Repair Database at the Michigan State University website]
Sprinkle the surface with lemon juice, shake salt all over it, then rub with a soft sponge.
Use soft cloth with white vinegar. good luck
