COOKING WITH YOUR

MIRACLEAN® GRIDDLE

You will find that your new Miraclean® Griddle has superb heat transfer. The polished trivalent chrome finish of the Miraclean® reduces the emission of radiant heat. Radiant heat is measured by emissivity. The radiant heat of a perfect black body has an emissivity of 1. The radiant heat of a conventionally seasoned Griddle plate is approximately .87. The radiant heat of the

Miraclean® has an emissivity of .078.

You can prove this to yourself by holding your hand approximately 1/2" above the Miraclean® Griddle plate. At this distance it is difficult to tell whether the Griddle plate is hot or not. It feels as though the Griddle plate is barely warm, but if you touch the plate, it will burn you.

The polished trivalent chrome finish on the Miraclean® Griddle plate is a wonderful insulator. It prevents the radiant heat from leaving the griddle plate. It transfers conducted heat to the food being cooked more rapidly than other griddle plates, because the food is placed directly on the metal surface. It is the understanding of this rapid heat transfer that permits the practical and beneficial use of the Miraclean® Griddle.

The Miraclean® Griddle finds an application in all sorts of griddle work, from cooking wheat cakes to scrambling eggs. We use these two products as illustrations because generally wheat cakes are cooked on a hot griddle. Eggs must be scrambled on a relatively cold griddle. Between these two extremes fall dozens of griddled items- everything from grilled frankfurters, grilled Italian sausage, grilled sausage patties, the entire

range of steaks and chops and chicken and fish.

It is necessary to understand that the carmelization of the meat products being cooked takes place at a higher rate and at a lower griddle surface temperature because of the improved heat transfer of the Miraclean® Griddle.

Eggs can not only be scrambled, but can be fried in any fashion. If the eggs are to be basted it is necessary to have a metal cover,

and to spill or splash a small amount of water under the cover so that the steam will baste the top of the eggs. Eggs require a very low temperature because generally you do not want the eggs to be browned on the bottom where they come in contact with the griddle plate. Approximately 250°F is ideal for scrambling or frying eggs.

There are several griddle tools. A hamburger spatula is like the one pictured here. The hamburger must stick at least slightly to the griddle to hold its shape. If it does not stick it shrinks in diameter, and the center of the meat becomes thicker. It becomes more of a meat cake than a hamburger. Therefore, the hamburger spatula has a strong cutting edge.

An egg spatula is shown in this illustration. An egg spatula has a long very thin blade so that it can be slipped under the egg without damaging it or breaking the yolk. This spatula can also be used for chopping the scrambled eggs so as they are turned they can be cooked to perfection without unnecessary browning. This same spatula is used for omelettes.
