Surface Cooking

Specialty Pans & Trivets

DO NOT use a wok if it is

equipped with a metal ring. Because this ring traps heat, the cooktop surface could be damaged.

Woks with flat bottoms suitable for use on your

cooktop are available in most cookshop or hard- ware stores.

DO NOT use two elements (if the cooktop is not equipped with bridge element) to heat one large pan such as a roaster or griddle, or allow cooking utensils to boil dry. The bottom surface of the pan in either of these situations could cause discoloring or cracking of the glass range surface.

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

*Specialty pans such as lobster pots, griddles and

pressure cookers may be used but must conform to the above recommended cookware

requirements.

For glass smoothtop models, only flat bottomed woks (without

support rings) may be used.

4.Start with hot water and a high heat setting to reduce the time it takes to

bring the water to a boil; then reduce the heat setting as low as possible to maintain a constant boil.

5.It is best to can small amounts and light loads.

Prevent damage to cooktop:

1.Do not use water bath or pressure canners that extend more than one inch beyond the edge of the burner grate.

2.Do not leave water bath or pressure canners on high heat for an extended amount of time.

3.Alternate surface units between each batch to allow the units and surrounding surfaces to cool down. Try to avoid canning on the same burner unit all day.

Safe canning requires that harmful micro-organisms are destroyed and the jars are sealed completely. When canning in a water bath canner, a gentle but steady boil must be maintained continuously for the required time.
