SECTION FOUR: USING THE COOKTOP

SPECIALTY COOKWARE

FLAT-BOTTOM WOK PAN

CANNING TIPS:

A flat base pan is preferred to one with a concave, convex or rippled base.

When using two canners at the same time, use staggered burners. Do not block air to the burners.A flame needs the right amount of air for complete combustion.

Use a cover on a canner when bringing the contents to a boil.

Once the contents have reached a boil on HI, use the lowest flame possible to maintain the boil or pressure.

Canning produces a large amount of steam. Take precautions to prevent burns.

ROUND-BOTTOM WOK

IN SUPPORT RING

Woks – Either flat based or round bottom woks with the accessory ring can be used on models without a built-in wok burner. Round bottom woks must be used with a support ring. Place the “F” on the accessory ring facing to the front.

Canners and Stock Pots – Select one with a base diameter that extends no more than 2 inches (51mm) beyond the grate.
