Gold is a non-reactive metal, is durable and has many good properties which are good for health.  

2. Silver Utensils

Silver is considered among the best utensils as the metal has antimicrobial properties, which help in removing all the fungi and bacteria from food.  

3. Copper Utensils

Copper Utensils are considered a good option because they can be used for a long time and have antimicrobial properties. The utensils can keep the food warm for a decent amount of time.

4. Kansa (Bronze) Utensils

Kansa utensils are said to have many benefits as per Ayurveda like balancing the ‘doshas’ in the body. The combination of tin and copper also helps in improving digestion.

5. Clay Pots And Utensils

Clay does not have any harmful effect and gives an earthly aroma to the food and hence, is considered a good option among the cooking utensils.  

6. Coconut Shell Utensils

The utensils are made using the utilised shells of the coconut which is considered entirely organic and sustainable. The shells give a cooling effect which helps in balancing the ‘doshas’ in the body.
