Why are metals used for making cooking vessels?

Solution

Generally, cooking vessels are made from metals because they conduct heat well, and are chemically unreactive, so that they do not alter the flavor of the food. Metals transfer heat by conduction pretty quickly and evenly and are generally tolerant to rapid changes in temperature.
