Many people have heard about hard anodized cookware sets but few know what’s it actually. It is simply aluminum given a treatment to make it extra hard and durable.This material is about 30% harder than stainless steel, which makes it more durable and difficult to peel or chip. It is resistant to most things. Unlike Teflon, anodized aluminum is not toxic and does come along with the food.  After the process of anodization, the surface of the pan becomes non porous and thereby non-stick. Many manufacturers have a gone a step further and given the pan one more coating of non – stick material making it a super duper cookware.
