How to choose silicone kitchenware:
As a household cookware, the safety of silicone kitchenware is very important. When buying, we must look for a regular manufacturer to buy. When purchasing a product, we need to have the product's food-grade environmental certification test report or FDA, LFGB certification test report, and we should also pay attention to choosing kitchen utensils suitable for our own use, and correctly distinguish the use of individual kitchen utensils.
Before buying, be sure to smell the product with your nose. Strictly speaking, silicone cookware should not have any odor when exposed to heat and cold. Rubbing on white paper does not cause any discoloration.
