Bamboo Utensils: Gentle on <strong>Your</strong> Cookware<br />
& the Earth Too!<br />
Many of the gentle ―nonstick‖ cooking tools available are<br />
made of nylon or silicone (which we discussed earlier).<br />
To avoid the being exposed to petroleum-based chemicals<br />
(and to help the environment too) choose bamboo.<br />
Not only is bamboo ideal for working with all of the cookware<br />
recommended in this section, it is also sustainable...and<br />
inexpensive.<br />
Advantages<br />
Nontoxic<br />
Nonstick<br />
Won’t scratch cooking surfaces<br />
Heat and stain resistant<br />
Sustainable, earth-friendly<br />
Disadvantages<br />
Brands to Try<br />
While typically sealed with a natural oil, bamboo utensils, with wear and<br />
tear, can trap bacteria. To keep your bamboo tools germ-free, wash with<br />
hot soapy water after every use or disinfect with a 10% hydrogen<br />
peroxide solution.<br />
