6 things you should never do with aluminum foils

Aluminum foil is very convenient to use and good assistant to family wivies and husbands, but there are 6 things you should never do with aluminum foils.

1. When it comes to baking cookies, do not use aluminum foil, while parchment is a good choice. This is because aluminum has extremely strong conductivity, which means that any part of the dough directly contact with the foil will receive more concentrated heat than the rest of the dough. What you end up with is a biscuit that is too yellow at the bottom, even burnt, and undercooked at the top.

2. Don’t Put Aluminum Foil in the Microwave: Putting aluminum foil in the microwave can cause a fire as the aluminum will absorb the microwaves and reflect them back into the machine, causing sparks. Aluminum foil is also a conductor and can cause a short circuit in the microwave, possibly burning out the magnetron, which is the heating mechanism.

3. Don’t Fry with Aluminum Foil: Frying with aluminum foil is not recommended, as aluminum foil is a conductor of heat, and it can easily cause an uneven heat transfer. You should use better materials for frying, such as stainless steel or cast iron, which has superior heat-conducting properties.

4.Do Not Place Aluminum Foil Over Any Open Flame - Aluminum foil, being extremely flammable, can catch fire if placed over an open flame. This poses a risk of fire spreading, as well as smoke damage, carbon monoxide poisoning, and other dangers.

5. Do Not Put Drinks in Aluminum Foil - Avoid putting drinks in aluminum foil as this can cause the aluminum to leach into the drink, making it unsafe for consumption.

6. Do Not Leave Aluminum Foil Out in the Sun - The heat and the UV rays from the sun will cause the aluminum foil to warp and degrade, making it less safe to store and cook food with.
