WATCH IN ACTION: Wendy’s 6 month review
Why and how this happens is explained in detail here:
All-Natural clay because of its purity and negatively charged ions has been used to extract toxins for many centuries. When food is cooked in them, these toxins –either from excess additives in the water, animal fat (most animals store toxins in the fat), pesticides, fertilizers, heavy metals from vegetables, lentils, beans all of which are positive ions, get squeezed out through the negatively charged clay platelets. Since the pot is unglazed, these toxins get pushed out all the way to the outside of the pot. Nothing sits within the walls and none of it goes back inside as pressure moves from high to low. The deposits have a sour, metallic taste. They come off easily when wiped with a piece of cloth and/or when the pot is washed after cooking.
For Further Reading: Dioxins in animal’s fatty tissue: Dioxins and the effects on human health. According to the FDA, most human exposure to dioxins comes from food, with 95 percent of that coming from animal fats (FDA 2004a). (See more at: Antibiotics, toxins & hormones –Toxins and dioxins from food). It is some of these elements that the pot extracts.
In our testing and experience, changing water to filtered water has in some cases eliminated this issue. Also changing from non-organic to organic ingredients has helped resolve this in other cases. And in some others, cleaning with baking soda instead of soap has helped eliminate this issue. In most cases, this will stop once the pot is fully seasoned, (in about 5-7 uses), unless either you’re continuing to clean with soap or if the food or water has excess toxins) Read more on this link. https://miriamsearthencookware.com/mec-blog/knowledge-base/i-sometime-see-some-brown-or-cream-colored-deposits-on-the-outside-of-the-pot-what-is-that/
