Cookware

Using proper cookware

The size and type of cookware used will influence the setting needed for best cooking results. Cookware should have flat bottoms that make good contact with the entire burner grate surface. Check for flatness by rotating a ruler across the bottom of the cookware.

Cookware should always:

•Have a flat bottom.

•Have tight fitting lids.

•Be well balanced.

•Be made of a material that conducts heat well.

•Be easy to clean.

Cookware material types

The cookware material determines how evenly and quickly heat is transferred from the surface burner to the pan bottom. The most popular materials available are:

•Aluminum - Excellent heat conductor. Some types of food will cause it to darken (Anodized aluminum cookware resists staining & pitting).

•Copper - Excellent heat conductor but discolors easily.

•Stainless steel -Slow heat conductor with uneven cooking results. Is durable, easy to clean and resists staining.

•Cast iron - A poor heat conductor however will retain heat very well. Cooks evenly once cooking temperature is reached.

•Porcelain-enamel on metal -Heating characteristics will vary depending on base material.

•Glass- Slow heat conductor.

Oven vent location

The oven vent is located below the backguard. When the oven is on, warm air is released through this vent. This venting is necessary for proper air circulation and provides good baking results in the oven. DO NOT BLOCK THIS VENT.

Home Canning

Be sure to read and observe all the following points when home canning with your appliance. Check with the USDA (United States Department of Agriculture) website and be sure to read all the information they have available as well as follow their recommendations for home canning procedures.

•Use only quality flat bottom canners when home canning. Use a straight-edge to check canner bottom.

•Use only acompletely flat bottom canner with no ridges that radiate from the bottom center when home canning using a ceramic cooktop.

•Make sure the diameter of the canner does not exceed 1 inch beyond the surface element markings or burner. It is recommended to use smaller diameter canners on electric coil and ceramic glass cooktops.

•Start with hot tap water to bring water to boil more quickly.

•Use the highest heat seating when first bringing the water to a boil. Once boiling is achieved, reduce heat to lowest possible setting to maintain that boil.

IMPORTANT

NEVER place or straddle a cooking utensil over 2 different surface cooking areas at the same time.
