Is all Anodized Cookware safe touse on the stove-top?

Question

I'm looking for a roaster that can be used on the stove-top to make the gravy after I make the turkey. I'm thinking of getting a Calphalon roaster but am not sure it'll be okay to use on the stove-top.

Answer 1

According to the excerpt from the FDA website about anodized aluminum, it is safe.

Anodized Aluminum
One reason that aluminum became popular for cookware is that it is an excellent heat conductor. Heat spreads quickly and evenly across the bottom, up the sides, and across the cover to completely surround the food.
Now cookware manufacturers have developed a process for treating
aluminum that retains the heat conductivity properties of the metal, but
changes aluminum in other ways. The process, called anodization, involves a
series of electrochemical baths that thicken the oxide film that forms
naturally on aluminum. This supplemental coating hardens the metal, making
it more scratch resistant. Food barely sticks on the hard, smooth surface of
this altered aluminum, making it easier to clean.
Commercial Aluminum Company, the manufacturer of Calphalon, a
best-selling brand of anodized aluminum cookware, claims that a final stage
in the anodization process seals the aluminum, preventing any leaching into
food. Anodized aluminum cookware doesn't react to acidic foods, so these
pots and pans are top choices for cooking rhubarb and sauces with tomato,
wine, and lemon juice....... The variety of pots and pans today offers something for everyone. And,the best part is that all the different materials discussed (including anodized aluminum) can safely serve the needs of consumers.
