Do not keep these 5 food items in steel utensils. Do not keep salt, pickle, milk, lemon and turmeric milk in steel utensils

Most people in our kitchen use steel utensils because they are durable, easy to clean and last longer. But it is not considered right to keep everything in a steel vessel. Actually, there are some foods that react with steel and their quality deteriorates. The result is that the taste deteriorates and health can also have a bad effect. Many times this reaction becomes so harmful that eating can reach the body, food poisoning and even poisonous elements. Therefore, it is important that you know which things should be avoided in the steel vessel.

First of all, let’s talk about salt and pickle. The acidic elements and oils present in salt and pickle are easily reacted with steel. By keeping them in steel for a long time, the layer of the pot starts to rub and the particles coming out of it are found in the food. This is the reason that pickles are always advised to store in glass or ceramic jars. If you accidentally put pickup in steel, then not only its taste will be bad but it can also be bad quickly.

The second thing is milk and dairy products. Things like milk, curd or cheese contain lactic acid, which can jointly react with steel. It not only affects the taste of milk, but it can also harm your digestive system. This is the reason that steel utensils can be used to boil milk, but to store it should always choose a glass or food-grade plastic container.

The third thing is sour fruits and vegetables like lemon and tomato. The citric acid present in them can leave harmful elements by reacting with steel. If lemon juice or tomato gravy is kept in steel for a long time, it can taste astringent and bitter. Also, it can also increase acidity and other stomach related problems in the body. Therefore, never store these things in steel containers.

The fourth thing is healthy drinks and juice. If you remove fresh fruit juice and keep it in a steel glass or container, then the vitamin C and other nutrients present in it can be destroyed gradually. Especially fruits like oranges, seasonal and pomegranate should not be kept in steel. It is always better to store them in a glass bottle or jug ​​itself.

The fifth thing is turmeric milk or herbal mixture. Curcumin present in turmeric can lose its qualities by coming in contact with steel. This is the reason that grandmother and grandmother always advised to drink turmeric milk in a glass of brass or bronze. Herbal drinks can also lose their effect by keeping in steel.
