Healthy cooking never looked so good!
- September 8, 2010 -



I am huge foodie and LOVE to cook…it’s my way of decompressing at the end of the day. I am big on organic (of course), farmers market fresh produce and meats and always love to include a great glass of wine while I’m at it. Recently I have become more and more aware of not only what ingredients I use, but what utensils and pots I use to prepare and cook my meals. I recently came accross this company, greencookingpots and fell in love with their mission, their product and their style! “Greencookingpots are made of enameled cast iron and are free of any chemicals, making them a great alternative to potentially toxic cookware. Enameled cast iron absorbs heat and distributes it evenly, creating a efficient cooking experience, whether it is the slow roasting of vegetables or the simmering of soups. They can be used on any heat source including the oven for casseroles or baking bread…Our pots are a great alternative to potentially toxic cookware. When heated, Teflon emits toxic particles and gasses, linked to countless human health illnesses. Aluminum cookware has raised health concerns due to its effect on the human nervous system and is linked to Alzheimer’s Disease. Stainless steel contains both chromium and nickel, (the 18/8 stainless referring to the percentage of each element contained). Both of these substances in the form they are used to make stainless steel are considered toxic to humans, causing a wide range of adverse health effects. The question is how much leaching occurs, but recognizing the increased toxicity levels of our everyday lives, cooking with greencookingpots is an easy choice, and simple way to live healthier.”- Green Cooking Pots
Beyond the fact that these pots are healthier and completely non toxic, their vibrant color choices make these a must have for any modern kitchen!
