Experts say which is better, wok or stainless steel pot.

Nowadays, cookers of various materials have entered thousands of households. Scientific research shows that some cookers contain some toxic substances. If used and selected improperly, these toxic substances will enter the human body with food and cause harm to human health.

Stainless steel pot contains harmful elements. Stainless steel is made of Fe-Cr alloy mixed with trace metal elements such as molybdenum, nickel, manganese and titanium. These trace fillers are harmful to human body. It should be noted that soy sauce, salt and vinegar should not be stored for a long time, because the electrolyte in these foods will react electrochemically with stainless steel for a long time, which will dissolve harmful substances. Stainless steel pot can't be used to cook traditional Chinese medicine, otherwise it will affect the effect of traditional Chinese medicine and even produce toxic compounds. Can't use soda, bleaching powder, strong alkali washing, these substances are strong electrolyte, can produce electrolytic reaction with stainless steel.

Iron pot is the most commonly used cooker, because its chemical properties are stable and it is not easy to cause chemical reactions. When frying in an iron pan, fry quickly and add less water, which can reduce the loss of vitamins. A small amount of iron dissolved during cooking can be absorbed and utilized by human body, which is beneficial to health. Holding oil in an iron pan is easy to oxidize and deteriorate, and the iron pan is easy to rust, so it can't hold food overnight.

Experts suggest that stainless steel pot or enamel pots should be used for cooking, and iron pots should be used for cooking.
