Cooking Food

Are you a cooking enthusiast? or Do you also love cooking food for your friends and family to garner praise? If yes, then these details are for you. 

Utensil Choices

Have you ever wondered that the utensils, you have been cooking in for your whole life can be very dangerous for your health? If not, then this is the right time to reconsider. 

NIN

The National Institute of Nutrition released the most awaited ‘Dietary Guidelines for Indians.' They have explained about the right ways to cook your food. 

Is It Bad?

Non-Stick utensils have coatings of Teflon which can potentially release perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA). This acid can cause diseases like cancer, thyroid and issues like birth defects. 

What to do?

Now, the question arises that we have been using these non-stick utensils for a long time, what can we do now? Here are the replacements for Non-stick utensils recommended by NIN. 

Stainless Steel

They said that the stainless steel utensils are the most helpful ones. These utensils are durable, easy to clean and the most hygienic. 

Earthenware

Earthenwares and Ceramics are also quite good for the health. The condition is they need to be cleaned properly before cooking or storing food.  

Stay Healthy

Earthenwares are eco-friendly, require less oil and there are many more benefits of them. One should always prioritise health over a fancy lifestyle.
