Cookware tips

There is no one brand of cooking utensil that is best for all people. Knowing something about pan materials and construction will help you select the right cooking utensils for your needs.

lUse only flat-bottomed utensils that make good contact with the surface units. To check the flatness of a utensil:

-Turn it over and check the bottom of the pan by placing a ruler across it.

-Rotate the ruler in all directions. There should be no gaps between the pan and the ruler.

NOTE: Woks, canners and teakettles with flat bottoms suitable for use on your cooktop are now available in most houseware stores or departments.

lThe pan should have straight sides and a tight- fitting lid.

lChoose medium to heavy gauge (thickness) pans that are fairly lightweight. Remember that a very heavy pan will be even heavier when filled with food.

l

l

The pan material (metal or glass) affects how fast heat transfers from the surface unit through the pan material and how evenly heat spreads over the pan bottom.

Handles should be made of a sturdy, heat- resistant material and be securely attached to the pan.

lDo not leave an empty utensil, or one which has boiled dry, on a hot surface unit. It can overheat and may damage the utensil or surface unit.
