SURFACE COOKING
HIGH: Use to bring liquid to a boil, or reach
pressure in a pressure cooker. Always
reduce setting to a lower heat when liquids
begin to boil or foods begin to cook.
An intermediate flame size is used to
continue cooking. Food will not cook any
faster when a higher flame setting is used
than needed to maintain a gentle boil.
Water boils at the same temperature
whether boiling gently or vigorously.
/-
LOW: Use to simmer foods, keep foods
warm and melt chocolate or butter. Some
cooking may take place on the LOW
setting if the pan is covered. It is possible
to reduce the heat by rotating the knob
toward OFF. Be sure flame is stable.
Surface Controls
