Cookware
tips
No one brand of cookware is best for all
people. Knowing something about pan
materials and construction
will help you
select the correct cooking utensils for your
needs.
l
NOTE: For best results
and greater fuel
efficiency,
use only flat-bottomed
cook-
ware in good condition.
l
The pan should have straight sides and a
tight-fitting
lid.
l
Choose medium to heavy gauge (thick-
ness) pans that are fairly lightweight.
l
The pan material
(metal or glass) affects
how fast heat transfers from the surface
burners through the pan material and how
evenly heat spreads over the pan bottom.
Choose pans that provide the best cooking
results.
l
Handles should be made of a sturdy, heat-
resistant material and be securely attached
to the pan.
