First of all, I'm not a cook but I have a working experience in household products. Hopefully, this blog can be a good source of information and can be your guide to choose the right cookware for your family.

Material

It is important to know the material of your cooking utensils since it will have a direct contact with the food you are preparing for your family.

In this blog, I only discuss about cookware with metal as the basic material. Can we use all metals and turn it into cookware? Of course not. The metal must have the ability to deliver heat evenly and not having a chemical reaction at the same time.

Is the material of cookware affecting the food quality? Well, some cooks I met believe the material you choose for your cookware can make a very big difference since every material conducts heat differently. The rate at which a material conducts heat determines how long it will take to cook your food. While the length of time you need to cook will affect how the food will actually taste.

Here is one type of cookware which commonly used and found in todays market

Copper Cookware

Copper is one of the most expensive materials used to make pots and pans. It conducts heat evenly and is very responsive to heat. It heats up quickly and will also cool down quickly when removed from the heat, preventing foods from burning and becoming overdone.

Copper is the best tool, especially for top-of-range cooking where the food must be cooked at precisely controlled temperatures.

Copper cookware has about ten times the heat conductivity of stainless steel or glass and twice that of aluminum. It transmits heat evenly with great response.

One problem with copper is that it interacts with everything it comes in contact with. Moisture in the air causes it to form a film on it that is poisonous and salty food causes a chemical reaction that can make food have a metallic taste. To make the copper pots and pans safe to use, they are lined with tin, silver or stainless steel to protect any surface that would come in contact with any food. Because copper reacts to everything it touches, it needs to be polished regularly to keep its bright copper shine.
