SURFACE COOKING
(continued)
Top-of-Range Cookware
Aluminum:
Medium-weight
cookware
is
recommended
because
it heats quickly and evenly.
Most foods brown evenly in an aluminum
skillet.
Use saucepans
with tight-fitting
lids when cooking
with minimum
amounts
of water.
Cast-Iron:
If heated
slowly, most skillets will give
satisfactory
results.
Enamelware:
Under some conditions,
the enamel of
some cookware
may melt, Follow cookware
manufacturer's
recommendations
for cooking methods_
Glass:
There are two types of glass cookware--those
for oven use only and those for top-of-range
cooking
(saucepans,
coffee and teapots).
Glass conducts heat
very slowly.
Heat-proof
Glass Ceramic:
Can be used for either
surface or oven cooking. It conducts heat very slowly
and cools very slowly. Check cookware manufacturer's
directions to be sure it can be used on gas ranges_
Stainless
Steel: This metal alone has poor heating
properties
and is usually combined
with copper,
aluminum
or other metals for improved
heat
distdbutiono
Combination
metal skillets usually work
satisfactorily
if they are used with medium heat as the
manufacturer
recommends.
Stove Top Grills (on
models with sealed
burners)
Do not use stove top grills
on your sealed gas burners.
If you use the stove top grill
on the sealed gas burner it
will cause incomplete
combustion
and can result
in exposure
to carbon
monoxide
levels above
allowable
current
standards.
This can be hazardous
to
your health.
Wok This Way (on
models with sealed
burners)
We recommend
that you
use a flat-bottomed
wok°
They are available
at your
local retail store.
A traditional
round bottom
wok can be used with Wok
Holder accessory,
model JXWK which can be ordered
from your appliance
dealer° The Wok Holder fits on
top of the range grate to provide support and proper
air circulation
for traditional
round bottom woks only.
Do not use fiat bottomed
woks with the Wok Holder.
Do not use a wok on any
other support ring.
Placing the ring over the
burner grate may cause the
burner to work improperly,
resulting
in carbon
_,_
monoxide
levels above
allowable
current standards° This could be dangerous
to your health. Do not try to use such woks wi_out
the ring unless you are using the Wok Holder° You
could be seriously
burned if the wok tipped over.
