further evidence in support of my policy of not taking cooking advice from people who advocate for putting food on paper towels
I'm a bad cook. Why should I not do that?
my understanding is that most kinds of paper towels are not food safe, and can contain bleaching agents, formaldehyde, and other such things. i’ve yet to find a great drop in replacement for them though. so i’ve just been avoiding/altering recipes that ask for them.
You could probably just use some unbleached linen or cheese cloth, aka a non-decorative towel, since that is the reusable material that paper towels replaced in our modern disposable society.
