Specialty Pans & Trivets

Woks with flat bottoms suitable for use on your cooktop are available in most cookshop or hardware

stores. Round-bottomed woks (with a support ring that does not extend beyond the burner flames) may also be used. The metal ring was designed to support the wok safely when it is filled with large amounts of liquids (soup making) or fat (frying).

Wire trivets: Do not use wire trivets. Cookware bottoms must be in direct contact with the grates.

DO NOT use two burner units to heat one large pan such as a roaster or griddle, or al- low cooking utensils to boil dry. The bottom surface of the pan in either of these situations could cause dis- coloring or crazing of the appliance cooking surface, and damage to the grates and burner units.

DO NOT use a wok if it is equipped with a metal ring that extends beyond the burner flames. Because this ring traps heat, the surface unit and cooktop surface could be damaged.
