Cooks' Note

A nonreactive saucepan refers to one made of metals, such as stainless steel, that have no negative reaction to foods that are cooked in them. Reactive metals, like copper, aluminum, and cast iron, react detrimentally with certain foods, particularly those that are acidic, such as lemon, tomatoes, and vinegar, imparting an off flavor and sometimes color.
