What is nonstick cookware & what is it made of?

Agreed that nonstick cookware offers a lot of visual appeal and features - it is attractive, lightweight, has a smooth finish and is simple to use. Thereby, cooking in non-stick cookware is a very enjoyable and satisfying experience. But, on a more serious note, everything does not seem appealing with this beautiful product. There is a grim truth behind nonstick kitchenware products, whether it be a tawa, pan or kadai.

To begin with, most non-stick cooking products are coated with a Teflon coating that is loaded with harmful chemicals such as PFAS. Medical experts even refer to them as "forever chemicals." Why so? Because once these substances have entered our bodies, they remain there indefinitely. Doctors have also stated that using nonstick cookware on a regular basis increases the threat of cancer. If discarded as garbage, they will take an eternity to degrade, harming the ecosystem. As a matter of fact, when Teflon utensils are heated over a very high flame, they emit invisible and odourless gases that are extremely harmful, even to household pets. So you can see, a seemingly innocent nonstick kitchenware items is truly hazardous and not good for health, living beings and environment.

What is iron & how iron cookware is better than nonstick?

Iron is basically a natural chemical element found in the periodic table - as symbol Fe. Iron is the chief constituent of Earth's core and the most abundant element available on Earth (about 35%).

When food is cooked using iron cookware, a small quantity of iron is released into the dish in the course of cooking. In terms of body growth and development, iron is critical to one's health. Cooking in iron utensils will also help those who are anaemic or have an iron shortage by regulating their haemoglobin levels. Even doctors recommend iron cookware as the best cooking utensils and better alternative to nonstick ones.

More reasons for why iron cookware is good for you

Iron utensils will support in improving the quality of dishes prepared in them - both in taste wise and provide better cooking results. You can expect your dishes to have a nice, rustic flavour after cooking in iron cookware. Similarly, on iron dosa tawa, you will be able to get perfectly textured results, just like the crispy, restaurant-like dosas.
Iron cookware is thick, strong and highly durable - which can last over a 100 years or more, if maintained well with proper care and seasoning. Thus, if you buy iron cookware online it will prove to be a good investment in the long run.
Iron cookware is light-weighted - This benefits especially people of old age and those who are suffering from arthritis or similar conditions. Thus, it elevates the ease of handling and cooking utilising iron cookware products.
While we shared earlier that non-stick cookware quality diminishes with repeated usage, it is opposite with iron products. Whether it is iron dosa tawa with handle or pure iron tawa, it will get better only with usage and time. By using iron cookware often and seasoning it regularly, the surface will achieve a non-sticky texture. Although there will be initial hiccups, with repeated usage you will get desired and excellent cooking results.
Iron cookware is best for traditional cuisines or dishes that require long, slow cooking. That is because iron utensils are made of heavy duty cooking.

It can be understood that using nonstick cookware cannot be stopped immediately. But one can take measures to use it carefully. Here are basic things that you can follow:

To be on the safer side, you can use your nonstick tawa or nonstick pan on low to medium flame.
Avoid keeping an empty nonstick kadai or dosa tawa on heat. It is recommended to have some food in it. Empty non-stick cookware will quickly heat up and there are high chances of harmful chemicals getting released.
Be careful about setting heat temperature on your cooktops (both gas/electric stove, induction or oven). Never use maximum heat or extremely hot settings, even for a premium quality induction cookware set.
Ensure to have a safety check always. While cooking, keep that exhaust fan switched on or windows wide open for proper ventilation in the kitchen.
Stop using damaged nonstick pan or for that matter, any nonstick kitchen items that is chipped or has scratches on the cooking surface. Although there is very less chances of the damaged portions or chips affecting your food or health, it is better to be safe.
Invest wisely. Always go for high quality nonstick kitchen set, preferably that is heavy and thick. Because such cookware will take time to heat but food can be cooked quickly before the cookware reaches maximum heat temperature. Investing in cheap nonstick cookware is thus not advisable. Plus, low quality non-stick cookware won’t be durable and you would be required to buy new ones often.
This may be hard but non-stick cookware MUST be replaced after a few years. They are neither designed for heavy duty cooking nor for long term usage. Even though your non-stick tawa or pan has been well-maintained or doesn’t show any visible damage, it is advisable to change it after 3-4 years. That is because their safety coating would wear off after repeated usage.

Choose healthier alternative to nonstick cookware

Considering the above mentioned factors, we would like to highlight that cookware plays a vital role, just like the ingredients you use to prepare your meals. It more or less contributes towards maintaining a healthy body, mind and overall well being. Therefore, it is better to replace your non-stick cookware with iron or cast iron ones, if you are concerned about your and your family's health.
