Energy
saving
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 efficiently. 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 to finish
cooking.
l
Use the more efficient surface burners in-
stead of the oven when possible.
l
Turn on the surface burner only after
placing filled pan on the burner grate.
l
"Oven Peeking"
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 to bake is right after a
meal has been cooked in oven.
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.
