Join us in episode 58 as we delve into the fascinating world of parchment paper and silicone safety. Ever wondered if there's oil applied to parchment paper? Or how safe is silicone? Let's find out!
No, parchment paper is not oiled in its manufacturing process. It is made from cellulose-based paper that has been treated to have non-stick properties without the need for oil. It is coated with silicone, which gives it a non-stick, grease-proof, and heat-resistant surface, making it ideal for baking and cooking without additional greasing.
Is silicone safe for human consumption?
Silicone is generally considered safe for human consumption when it is food-grade and used according to manufacturer guidelines. Food-grade silicone is a non-toxic polymer made without petroleum-based chemicals, BPA, BPS, or fillers. It is resistant to high and low temperatures, making it suitable for various food applications, from baking and cooking to food storage. The FDA has deemed food-grade silicone safe for direct contact with food, indicating that it does not react with food or beverages or produce hazardous fumes.
