As more research became available on the dangers of using particular non-stick cookware products, I became more diligent about replacing my old, well-used non-stick cookware and ovenware with new, safer products (for both my kids and the environment). I do a lot of baking and cooking, so over time my baking sheets, muffins tins, and frying pans do show some wear and tear.
Big fans of the ‘original’ environmentally-friendly GreenPan cookware, we were very excited to receive a sample from GreenPan’s new line of professional quality ovenware. I volunteered to test it out. The thing that makes these products revolutionary is that they are the first environmentally-friendly, PTFE-free, non-stick cookware that contains Thermolon Rocks. Thermolon Rocks is the latest non-stick, ceramic based coating which can be used to cook in extreme temperatures without damaging the product and contains no toxic substances that can be released at that heat. This, along with the fact that Thermolon ovenware releases 60% fewer greenhouse gases during production than other non-stick products is good news for moms.
With a crisper full of fresh vegetables, I decided to give the new GreenPan rectangular oven tray a try. The end result was very impressive. The vegetables roasted evenly, top and bottom, they didn’t stick to the pan, and the clean up was a breeze. Baking peanut butter cookies are next on my to-do list (they obviously are not going into the school lunches!).
GreenPan products are available in gourmet kitchen supply stores everywhere.
