Deep Fat Frying

Do not overfill cookware with fat that may spill over when adding food.

Frosty foods bubble vigorously. Watch food frying at high temperatures.

Keep range and hood clean from grease.

HOME CANNING TIPS

Controls

Cookware

Canning should be done on cooktop only.

Pots that extend beyond 1 inch of surface unit’s edge are not recommended for most surface cooking. However, when canning with water-bath or pressure canner, large-diameter pots may be used. This is because boiling water temperatures (even under pressure) are not harmful to cooktop surfaces surrounding surface unit.

HOWEVER, DO NOT USE LARGE DIAMETER CANNERS OR OTHER LARGE DIAMETER COOKWARE FOR FRYING OR BOILING FOODS OTHER THAN WATER. Most syrup or sauce mixtures—and all types of frying—cook at temperatures much higher than boiling water. Such temperatures could eventually harm cooktop surfaces.

Tips

Observe Following Points in Canning

1.Be sure canner fits over center of surface unit.

If your cooktop or its location do not allow canner to be centered on the surface unit, use smaller- diameter pots for good canning results.

2.Flat-bottomed canners must be used. Do not use canners with flanged or rippled bottoms (often found in enamelware) because they don’t make enough contact with the surface unit and take too long to boil water.

RIGHTWRONG

3.When canning, use recipes and procedures from reputable sources. Reliable recipes and procedures are available from the manufacturer of your canner; manufacturers of glass jars for canning, such as Ball and Kerr; and the United States Department of Agriculture Extension Service.

4.Remember that canning is a process that generates large amounts of steam. To avoid burns from steam or heat, be careful when canning.

NOTE: If your house has low voltage, canning may take longer than expected, even though directions have been carefully followed. The process time will be shortened by:
