Great idea, but why not use parchment instead? Or a pressure cooker? Even though the debate about foil and Alzheimer’s is still inconclusive, why take the chance if you don’t have to? Looks yummy, just not in foil! Namaste.
Hi Lori,
You’re right about parchment paper, that’s the primary solution… My father used to do it with alu so my nostalgic heart belongs with it.
About pressure cooker, it’s just not so fun as foils I guess… ;)
thx and have a great day
