For the younger generation, it's hard to imagine life without nonstick cookware. Our grandparents could still remember those times when they had to spend hours scrubbing away at large pots and pans after hours of slaving away at the kitchen cooking huge meals for the family.
Today's utensils are designed for quick and hassle-free cooking, and topping the list of must-have items are nonstick cookware. This specially formulated coating of the interior of pots and pans makes it possible to cook without a hint of oil, and even makes cleanup so easy.
Non Stick Cookware
In fact, when you start using nonstick cookware, you could probably throw away your steel wool pads for good and instead make use of gentle sponges. Washing is done in a few minutes' time, and nothing is wasted food-wise because it's nearly impossible to burn anything with nonstick cookware.
When choosing nonstick cookware, make sure you go for known brands. The more expensive ones have up to five layers of metals in a number of their designs. These layers may consist of nonstick top layers and super-conducting materials such as copper inside.
Iron-clad cookware may be made of copper and stainless steel, but treatments are done to ensure that the stainless steel coating is also nonstick. Thus, you get the advantage of evenly distributed heating because of the layered metals, plus the assurance that the food you're cooking won't easily get burned.
Professional cookware are also quite different from those intended for home use. The former is made more durable to withstand repeated use. Because of this, they have to be made of only the finest materials, which also make them a lot more expensive.
Nonstick cookware [http://www.cookware-help.com/Articles/Glass_Cookware.php], even those which are only meant to be used at home, can be rather pricey. You must then take good care of it and try your best to keep it looking as good as it did when you bought it.
First of all, keep steel wool pads away from nonstick cookware. No matter how gently you scrub, the steel would scratch the topmost coating and eventually damage the cookware. Don't be tempted to replace your nonstick cookware with cheaper sets, because you may actually be spending more if you'd keep throwing away these inferior products.
Apart from what you'll save from replacing cookware, you'll also cut down on the use of butter, oil, and nonstick sprays when you use nonstick cookware. Not to mention the fact that you'll be cutting down on cholesterol and improving your health!
One last word of advice: Nonstick software cannot be placed in the dishwasher for cleaning. The best cleaning method is hand-washing them with mild liquid dishwashing soap. Once you start using nonstick cookware, you'll never want to go back to inferior pots and pans again.
