tips
Although the energy used for cooking is usually a
very small percentage
of the total energy used in
the home, cooking energy can be used effi-
ciently. Here are some tips to help you save
energy when using your cooking product.
l
Use pans with flat bottoms, straight sides and
tight-fitting lids.
l
Cook with a minimum of liquid or fat to help
shorten cooking time.
l
Preheat pans only when recommended
and for
the shortest time possible.
l
Start food on higher heat settings, then set
surface burner control on low or off to finish
cooking. Use retained heat for cooking when
possible.
l
Use the more efficient surface burners instead
of the oven when possible.
l
Turn on the surface burner only after placing
filled pan on the burner grate.
l
"Oven peaking"
may cause heat loss, longer
cooking times and unsatisfactory
baking
results. Rely on your timer to keep track of the
cooking time.
l
Bake cakes, pies or cookies when oven is
warm. Best time is after a meal has been
cooked in it.
l
Preheat the oven no longer than necessary.
l
Plan your meals for the most efficient use of
the range. When using the oven to cook one
food, try to cook the rest of the meal in it also.
l
Do not preheat
when broiling, roasting or
cooking items such as casseroles.
l
Keep reflector pans clean for best heat
reflection.
