Re: carbon steel, stainless steel, iron... Which is best to cook in?

Dear Epshot,

Go for Corning's Visionware, see through pots.

They are the cheapest and the best. You can throw

them in the dishwasher. When they won't come clean

anymore, chuck them and get some more. $5 - 15 a piece.

Best of Health!

Can anyone give me some advice on which cookware to choose. I want to

buy a bamboo steamer and a wok to heat the water in but don't know

which type of wok is best. I am also interested in buying a whole

starter set with a skillet and stock pot. Is stainless steel the best

for cooking? I heard its core is made of aluminum... Is this true and

will the coating fade and reveal the aluminum? Can someone recommend

a great brand? Is a glass skillet also a good choice?

I know these questions might seem insignificant to some when compared

to all the other topics on this list but cooking whole complete meals

for yourself and your loved ones produces significant health

benefits. When one embarks on a lifestyle change program for the

purpose of healing cooking should not be overlooked.

Thanks in advance.

Dear ,

Salad Master is ridiculously expensive.

Single pots at $450.

Iron from cookware is not good, as it is

non-organic. Might as well lick rust.

For cookware: Salad Master is one of two companies manufacturing

cookware with Surgical Quality Steel. This type of steel has no pores

which is why it is used for surgical steel.

As well, there is next to no metal transmission to food.

If boil water in different types of cookware then add

baking soda to bring out the taste.

All have a very sharp metallic taste except for surgical steel

cookware.

Now this metallic taste may be ok.

There was a study of a Third World country & nutrition

and families who cooked in cast iron pots got their iron

but those who cooked in other cookware were anemic.

So If any one else has added info,

would be appreciated.

I am with Saul on cookware. I found visions at a garage sale for $5. Got

bunches of pieces because people don't know how to cook with them. You

need to use low heat. They are very easy to clean. If they get burnt on

food, I use a paint scraper, the one that has the razor blade in it , to

scrap it off. Won't hurt the glass. I thought everyone kept a paint

scraper by their sink in the kitchen. Great of clean water deposits off

faucets also.

I had some expensive stainless steel pots.....they were 12 ply. Put some

beans on the stove one day to bring to a boil then soak them. Phone rang

and my grandaughter had fell and cut her face. I left immediately. When I

got to her house I remembered my beans. I said well we have to go back to

my house first because my kitchen is on fire. LOL Came in and the whole

house was filled with smoke. The pan had melted out the alum???? onto my

stove top. Of course I needed new counter tops and new stove top but I

sure got rid of my nice pots after seeing what came out of them. Insurance

paid me $900 for my stove and I bought it back for a $100 and kept my stove.

I went to all glass cookware. I use some ceramics for baking. Hey, I have

a friend that sells ceramics cheap if anyone is interested. He is a master

mudder or something like that.

I am not sure about online, but I have gotten many of the glass visionware

pots at outlet stores, such as the Belz here in Las Vegas. Corning usually

has a store in these outlet centers. If anyone would like me to help out

with sending them the visions, I can get them easily. Just let me know.

Actually, cooking should be overlooked as much as possible...

The more 'fresh, raw' food you and your family can incorporate into your

lifestyle, the better.

But of course, if/when you are going to cook, the less damaging are your

cooking practices, the better for those involved.
