• Stainless steel (ideal for gripping)

• Natural cast iron (mineral and indestructible)

• Steel and its natural non-stick qualities

👉 These materials become naturally non-stick with good seasoning or regular use.

Care instructions: avoid thermal shock and clean with hot water only.

3. 🥄 The untreated wooden spoon

It's sometimes overlooked, but unvarnished, raw wood is one of the healthiest materials for cooking. It won't scratch your pans, won't heat up, and won't release any toxic compounds .

4. 🥣 The glass or ceramic salad bowl

Plastic, even "BPA-free," can migrate into food. For your cold or warm preparations, nothing beats a salad bowl made of borosilicate glass or lead-free enameled ceramic .
