Question from Nell Covington

Hi Debra,

I am thinking about buying a bread machine. It seems like all of the brands have a non-stick finish. Are these machines likely to get hot enough to make this a problem (I understand that the temp has to reach over 500 degrees to cause leaching, right??) What do you think?

Debra’s Answer

I don’t feel comfortable using non-stick finishes at any temperature.

I don’t know of a bread machine that doesn’t have a non-stick finish.

When I used to bake bread, I just baked it in the oven in a glass loaf pan. I don’t eat bread as part of my regular diet any more.
