Using Your Cooktop

Gas Cooktop

Cookware

Aluminum: Medium-weight cookware is recommended because it heats quickly and evenly. Most foods brown evenly in aluminum cookware. Use saucepans with tight-fitting lids for cooking with minimum amounts of water.

Cast Iron: If heated slowly, most cookware will give satisfactory results.

Enamelware: Under some conditions, the enamel of some cookware may melt. Follow cookware manufacturer’s recommendations for cooking methods.

Glass: There are two types of glass cookware— those for oven use only and those for surface cooking (saucepans, coffee and teapots). Glass conducts heat very slowly.

Heatproof Glass-Ceramic: Can be used for either surface or oven cooking. It conducts heat very slowly and cools very slowly. Check cookware manufacturer’s directions to be sure it can be used on gas cooktops.

Stainless Steel: This metal alone has poor heating properties, and is usually combined with copper, aluminum or other metals for improved heat distribution. Combination metal cookware generally works satisfactorily if it is used at medium heat as the manufacturer recommends.

Dual-flame spill-proof burners

All burners on your cooktop have two rows of flames. These dual-flame burners have a simmer (lower) flame and a main (upper) flame.

When a burner is turned on, the simmer flame will always light and stay on.

Simmering: The simmer (SIM) setting will use only the lower flames. Use simmer (SIM) to melt chocolate, hold delicate sauces or for other foods requiring low simmer heat.

Primary Cooking: Settings from LO to HI will use both rows of flames. Use LO to HI for all purpose cooking.
