This seems like a trivial thing, but The utensils we use for cooking can pose a problem for our health. Experts recommend always handling food with wooden spoons or paddles rather than the increasingly common plastic ones. The reason is that when heated, microplastics can be released and transferred to food.
But if we decide to cook with plastic utensils, we must make sure that they are made in the European Unionbecause, if it comes from outside, we have no guarantee that the recycled plastics have not been in contact with a toxic substance.
As for pots and pans, experts recommend not being afraid of food sticking, because even if you scrape them, the material will not mix with the food. And it is always better if they are made of stainless steel.
