- Put the right size of well-closing lid on saucepans. This keeps the heat in and cuts power consumption by about a third.
- Avoid visibly damaged, stained or unpleasant smelling plastics and containers. Never heat or store food in plastic containers that were not intended for food.
- Do not use metal cooking utensils, use only wood or plastic utensils when cooking in titanium cookware
- During cooking, aluminum dissolves most easily from worn or pitted pots and pans. The longer food is cooked or stored in aluminum, the greater the amount that gets into food. Leafy vegetables and acidic foods, such as tomatoes and citrus products, absorb the most aluminum.
