All about Non-stick Cookware by Pnb Kitchenmate Posted: May 01, 2017 When non-stick cookware is used and stored properly, it is quite a handy tool in the kitchen. These utensils are easy to use (especially for beginner cooks), and these can be cleaned easily. If you use incorrectly, though, it's also easy to damage and all out ruin nonstick cookware. When cooking in a non-stick cookware, cooking over high heat should be avoided for a few reasons. First, the higher temperatures are bad for the nonstick coating on the cookware because it may stick. Over time exposure to high heat will spoil the surface. Also, depending on the type of nonstick coating on your cookware, cooking over high heat can lead to the release of unhealthy, potentially toxic vapors. Using nonstick cooking spray on nonstick cookware is a bad idea. There are a lot of problems with it. After a while your non-stick cookware will get a sticky content accumulated of the spray that doesn't burn off during cooking. It’s harmful and it’s not even edible. This usually happens around the sides of the cookware. Scrubbing this sticky film off takes some serious efforts and doesn't happen very easy. Using sharp or abrasive objects anywhere near your nonstick cookware is not good. This goes for cooking and cleaning as well. Using sharp objects like, knives or metal spatulas to stir food or remove it from the cookware, along with things like steel wool for cleaning, can scratch and damage the coating on the cookware. Once the coating on nonstick pans starts to peel or gets pitted, it's best to replace them with other utensils. There is hardly any dish that can be cooked without oil. However, if you start using safe non- stick cookware you will enjoy the same dish without consuming a single drop of oil or by using minimum amount of oil. The surface of non-stick cookware is enhanced with a non-stick coating on a base material like aluminum which keeps the food from sticking to the cookware while cooking it completely. The normal or regular cooking utensils absorb a lot of oil while cooking and hence it is difficult to clean them. As we know that the coating of non-stick cookware is very easy to use and prevents the food from sticking and is therefore easy to clean. The solid non-stick coating not only makes the food but also makes the cookware scratch resistant. However, it is extremely
mandatory to use the right spoons and spatula for cooking in non-stick. Using steel or any other regular cooking spoon with your non-stick pans could spoil its looks. Nonstick cookware has been in trend these days. If you are looking for cookware online, you can go for PNB utensils and check for the amazing collection that we have to offer.
