FRENCH TOP

The 15,000 Btu/hr (4.4 kW) French Top is an optional feature that provides a 22" (559) cooking surface with the hottest temperature under the center plate and the lowest tempera- ture near the edges. This design makes it possible to use several pans at once for a variety of cooking tasks. For example, fry chicken toward the center, while simmering a sauce in one corner and keeping vegetables warm in a different corner. Place the pan or pans toward the edge according to their contents and quantity. Refer to the illustrations below.

The cooking surface is made of polished cast iron that is an excellent heat conductor. The several rings allow for the solid surface to expand with the heat while remaining flat. The rings also provide thermal breaks in the cast iron that distribute the heat in a graduated intensity, hottest in the center and coolest around the edges.

To protect the cast iron surface from moisture, it is necessary to season the French Top prior to use. This seasoning process as well as general use will change the appearance of the French Top.

S E A S O N T H E F R E N C H TO P

Clean surface with detergent and warm water. Rinse and dry.

Turn on the ventilation hood five minutes prior to using the French Top.

The French Top needs to go through a ”burn in” period. Turn on the French Top for 30 minutes to clean oils from the bottom side of the surface. After 30 minutes, turn the French Top off and allow it to cool.

To season, spread a light coating of peanut or vegetable oil on a towel or cloth. While surface is still slightly warm, apply oil evenly until it is absorbed into the cast iron. Use oil sparingly; too much oil will smoke excessively when heated and leave a gummy coating that will have to be removed. Avoid using olive oil; it leaves a gummy residue.

It is normal for the cast iron to darken with use to a bluish-black color.

When this seasoning technique is applied correctly, the surface will be protected from moisture. Its appearance darkens with use, a sign that the French Top has been fully tempered and is properly seasoned. Regular maintenance will become easier.
