Griddle Tips

Condition or “season” griddle before first-time use.

Most griddled foods are those that require cooking on a preheated surface. The ~tiddle surface may be

Oreased lightly before adding food. Preheat the

&

griddle 5 minutes at HI heat setting, unless otherwise indicated in the Griddle Cooking Guide, then switch to the recommended cook setting.

. Foods which are high in natural fat, such as bacon or sausage, may be started on a cold ~tiddle.

Foods to be warmed may be placed directly on the griddle; a high-domed metal cover, such as an inverted metal mixing bowl, placed over them will help store the heat. Foods in covered dishes or pans may also be warmed on the griddle. Use heat- resistant dishes only.

Make sure the grease collector jar and drip pan are clean before using the griddle.

To preserve the finish, use only Teflon@ coated, nylon or wooden spatulas and spoons. Never use the griddle surface as a cutting board.

. Over a period of time, minor scratches and some discoloration may appear in the non-stick coating. This will not affect the cooking performance or the non-stick finish.

. Avoid using metal utensils with sharp points or rough or sharp edges which might damage the non-stick coated griddle surface. Do not cut foods on the griddle.

Questions and Answers

Q. How should I store my griddle when it is not in use?

A. To avoid marring the non-stick finish, store griddle upright on the edge with the terminals up to avoid damage. If it is necessary to store it flat, avoid placing other pans or cookware on top.

Q. Why aren’t my foods done even though they have cooked the full time?

A. Preheat the griddle for a longer time and leave

foods on the griddle longer to attain the desired degree of browning.

Q. How long can foods be kept warm with the griddle without losing their appeal?

A. No longer than 2 hours is recommended, to assure good food quality and to prevent spoilage. Delicate foods, such as eggs, should not be kept more than 15 to 30 minutes; entrees and casseroles maybe warmed for 30 to 60 minutes. Hors d’oeuvres will stay hot for serving up to 1 or 1!4hours. Rearrange or stir foods occasionally, if possible.

Q. Do I need special cookware for use with my griddle?

A.Avoid using metal cookware with sharp points or rough or sharp edges which might damage the non- stick-coated griddle surface. Do not cut foods on the ~tiddle. Use only heat-resistant dishes when foods in containers are to be warmed on the ~giddle. For further information on caring for your ~tiddle’s surface, see the Care and Cleaning section.

Q.Can prolonged periods of high heat damage my griddle% surface?

A.A brief preheating period is often necessary for

best results with many foods, but leaving the griddle on HI heat setting for more than 1()

minutes without food can damage the non-stick coating. Always be sure to turn control knobs to off (0) when cooking is completed.
