Lasagna in Aluminum Pan
Okay, just read something disturbing, just read somewhere, NOT to cook
lasagna in an aluminum foil pan because something about it reacting with the tomato sauce.....I'm the one that posted about cooking for the large group and this is what I had planned to do. Any thoughts on this? B-Worthey |

Any thoughts on this? > > B-Worthey The aluminum pan won't harm the lasagna but the lasagna can harm the aluminum pan. Acidic food such as tomato will set off an electrolytic reaction (same as an acid cell battery) that will cause the aluminum to decay. With thin foil pans the acidic tomato will cause holes to form. It's okay to cook in the aluminum pans but not a good idea to store foods in aluminum for any lenth of time, no more than 24 hours. Actually the electrolytic reaction will not occur where there is direct contact, only where there is a very narrow air gap, such as when using foil as a cover, then pin holes will form where the aluminuun comes very near the acidic food but not where it actually makes contact. If you cook your lasagna in disposable aluminum pans use plastic wrap to cover the left overs and it will be fine... but still do not store foods in aluminum (or any metasl cookware for that matter, not stainless steel either) for more than 24 hours. With strongly flavored foods such as lasagna most people will not detect an off flavor, but when cooking delicately flavored foods such as fish (especially seafood) and veal it's best not to use aluminum, especially if citrus is involved. Also, those who use iodized salt, get rid of your aluminum cookware... all seafood contains iodine, the reaction with aluminum is nasty. |

I once made the mistake of covering a tomato based dish with aluminum foil and it ate holes in the foil leaving nasty black bitter spots on top of my food, and visible holes in the foil. I had to scrape it all off. It's a very bad idea to combine tomato and aluminum. I no longer own any aluminum cookware and I'm a lot more careful now with foil. -- Peace, Om Remove _ to validate e-mails.

I've often covered lasagna in foil (when doing the uncooked pasta method) and have NEVER seen holes develop, and somehow commercial frozen lasagna uses aluminum all the time without problem. |

Your lasagna may not have tomato sauce directly in contact with the foil, or else you didn't look closely enough. I've seen it quite a few times! Do a simple test - put a piece of foil into a dish containing tomato sauce overnight. Then put your glasses on and take a good look. |

Yep. I'm always wrong and you are always right. I made a mistake clearing you from my killfile. I took it hot to a potluck. The tomato ate holes in regular reynolds wrap and left black spots on my food. Mom chewed me out for the error. Whatever floats your boat. -- Peace, Om Remove _ to validate e-mails.

LOL I would strongly suggest you buy the largest foil pans that will fit comforably in whatever oven you're using... you should be able to easily feed 20 from a large pan, you don't need to mess with ten teeny weeny pans. If you go to a party supply emporium they will sell you large foil pans with those foil lined cardboard lids for baking... they also have clear domed plastic lids for presentation and/or fridge storage. I think you're making much more drama out of this than is necessary, you seem to be unreasonably consumed with aluminum, are you hitting the church wine locker? I'm serious. |

The only thing I have not figured out about the large ones is how many servings I can get out of them, etc. I'm not unreasonably consumed with aluminum, thats just what I was goign to use because that seemed like the easiest option. I did not have enough of the larger pans at my church to cook what I needed, so I had to have another option, and second of all, I have had WAY too many opinions when it comes to multiplying the recipe to a bigger pan. So if I did the teeny weeny, as you put it, I don't have to worry about how much goes in there, or how many servings, I know exactly how much I can get. the other way, I really don't know. Just like I've had 10 different opinions here about using the aluminum pans, so which is it, what's right, what's wrong? B-Worthey |

Transfer it to plastic or glass for storage of leftovers. I've used aluminum for decades for tomato sauced foods and as long as they don't sit in the aluminum for extended periods, it's fine. YMMV.

I responded that in my experience I'd never had this problem and that commercial manufacturers seem to manage also? YOU seem to have a need to toss logic out of the window and assume my experience somehow is "picking on you" instead of just me providing alternative experience. Shame your mom "chewed you out" for doing something that plenty of other people and companies do routinely and never have a problem. |

Oh, I've had it eat through aluminum foil where it happened to touch. However, the pans are made from a much heavier grade of foil, I doubt it could eat through one of those in any reasonable time frame. We used to get pasta from a local restaurant for the cumpnee Christmas feed (Rigazzi's for you St. Louis people). We got it in the big foil pans, and the tortellini with tomato sauce didn't seem to be adversely affected, although it was in there only for a few hours or so).

It's the WAY you answer my posts! You have yet to ever agree with anything I post and you always answer them in a negative manner, as if you are trying to make me look like a liar or an idiot. You are a very negative person. What is wrong with you??? I was merely stating experience I have had covering tomato dishes with aluminum foil! Are you calling me a liar or something? For crying out loud!!! I covered a tomato based cassarole with some aluminum foil for a potluck. When I got to the party, the foil was full of little holes and there were ugly bitter black spots all over the top of the food where the foil had dissolved. If you don't believe me, you know where you can place it! You also seem to stalk my posts just so you can attack them. You need some meds or something.

It just makes sense to present both sides of an issue. You don't have to take everything as a personal affront. Your screeching posts to me put your credibility at a disadvantage, IMO. |

I really really really wish you'd killfile me. I'm sick to death of your attacks on me, always attempting to discredit me.
