Guest guest Posted November 24, 2009 Report Share Posted November 24, 2009 Greetings, I have told my hubby that I want a new set of cookware for Christmas, a really good set. I think all-clad stainless is good, then there is the all-clad stainless with copper, and I have heard the copper is not good for health. Too much copper or whatever, although this set looked really nice, I don't want to buy something expensive and then find out it is not health friendly. Any ideas. I would apprecate anysuggestions.

Guest guest Posted November 24, 2009 Report Share Posted November 24, 2009 I just bought myself a new set of cookware called xtrema by a company called ceramcor. www.ceramcore.com the price is comperable to any really good set of pots and I love using them. They retain the heat beautifuly and clean up phenomenally easy. - barbara elenniss oleander soup Tuesday, November 24, 2009 12:46 PM o/t Cook ware Greetings, I have told my hubby that I want a new set of cookware for Christmas, a really good set.

Guest guest Posted November 24, 2009 Report Share Posted November 24, 2009 Thick cast iron-enamel cookware is better than stainless steel or range top corningware which can also be used in the oven.

Guest guest Posted November 26, 2009 Report Share Posted November 26, 2009 Hi Barbara, We have used non-coated cast iron and corningware visions for thirty years or so and are well pleased. The trick we learned with cleaning and preserving-curing cast iron helps ever so much. Rinse cast iron in hot water, a scrub with a brush usually cleans them. Rinse in cold water, place on stove and dry with heat, then apply a small coating of olive oil. We use a paper towel to smear the olive oil around. O'course, don't burn the oil. Cast iron is heavy and takes some getting used to, but boy, does it ever cook stuff good-ly! Corningware sold their Visions division to some other company which changed their formula, so, older used Visions ware is probably safer. Good cooking for Christmas.....adtomeus in Love oleander soup , " tita_mel " <tita_mel wrote: > > Thick cast iron-enamel cookware is better than stainless steel or range top corningware which can also be used in the oven. > > Melly > > oleander soup , barbara elenniss <bntelenniss@> wrote: > > > > Greetings, > > > > I have told my hubby that I want a new set of cookware for Christmas, a really good set. > > > > I think all-clad stainless is good, then there is the all-clad stainless with copper, and I have heard the copper is not good for health.

Guest guest Posted November 26, 2009 Report Share Posted November 26, 2009 Hello, have you done the research on using iron cookware? Several good web sites to check are drmercola.com and beyondhealth.com. I would be concerned about absorbing the iron from the cookware which the liver cannot dispose of so it can be stored in the body.
