Section Four: Using the Cooktop

PROPER COOKWARE

Top performance of your new cooktop is directly related to the use of proper pots and pans. An out-of- shape pan, without a lid, cannot possibly cook with the same speed and evenness as a pan with a heavy, flat bottom and a good fitting lid.

CONVEX (rounded)

CONCAVE (hollow)

Cookware should have the fol-

lowing characteristics:

s Good heat conductivity

sBottom diameter matching the size of the burner used

Good balance (pan bottom

remains level on burner grate)

Smooth, heavy bottom that does not warp when hot; provides even heat

Proper fitting lid (when needed for specific cooking methods)

Do not use cookware with these characteristics:

s Thin bottom

s Concave bottom when heated

s Convex bottom when heated

sPoor balance (rocks back from weight of handle)

Many different types of pans can be used on this cooktop. To get the best cooking results, choose pans having the following qualities:

Match Flame Size to Pan Size

Match the flame to the bottom di-

ameter of the pan. The flame should be the same size as the pan or slightly

smaller. Small utensils and high flames result in energy loss and in- crease the potential for burns.

Use cookware that has good heat

conductive qualities. Metal cook-

ware that has copper or aluminum

imbedded in a stainless steel disk

bottom ("tri-plyconstruction") con- ducts heat better than other cook-

ware.

Use medium to heavy gauge pans. These pans resist warping and last

longer than thin pans. The weight or thickness of the pan material (gauge) should be heavy enough to conduct heat evenly over the bottom of the pan for even browning and to avoid scorching.

Balanced Pan

Unbalanced Pan

Use balanced pans that sit level on

the burner grate without tilting from

the weight of the handle.

Use Lids that fit Properly

Use lids that fit the cookware prop-

erly to help shorten cooking time and to allow food to cook in a mini-

mum amount of liquid on a lower heat setting.
