HELPFUL HINTS

Foods may be prepared with or without butter, shortening or oil. When frying, using a small amount of fat will improve the flavor, color and/or crispness of meat, fish, poultry and eggs. This skillet is not designed to deep fry. Never use more than one cup of vegetable or peanut oil for shallow pan-frying. Meat may be cooked in its own juices if the skillet is covered and the temperature control is set at “SIMMER.”

Plastic, rubber and wooden cooking tools are recommended for use on the non-stick surface. Smooth-edged metal cooking tools may be used with care. However, do not use sharp-edged metal (forks, knives, mashers, beaters or food choppers) as scratching may occur. Never cut foods directly in the skillet, this will scratch the nonstick finish. Minor scratching will affect only the appearance of the surface; it will not harm its non- stick property or the food prepared in the skillet.

Periodically check the handles to ensure that they are completely tightened; they should feel secure and not wobble. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN, AS STRIPPING OF THE

SCREWS AND BREAKAGE OF THE HANDLES CAN OCCUR.
