Surface Cooking (continued)
Top-of-Range Cookware
Aluminum:
Medium-weight
cookware is recommend-
ed because
it heats quickly and evenly_ Most foods
brown
evenly in an aluminum
skilleL
Use saucepans
with
tight-fitting
lids when cooking
with minimum
amounts
of water..
Cast iron: If heated
slowly, most skillets will give sat-
isfactory
results.
Enamelware:
Under some conditions,
the enamel
of
some cookware
may melt. Follow cookware
manufac-
turer'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 con*
ducts heat very slowly.
Neatproof
Glass
Ceramic:
Can be used for either
surface
or oven cooking.
It conducts
heat very slowly
and cools very slowly. Check
cookware
manufactur-
er'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,
alu-
minum or other metals for improved
heat distribution.
Combination
metal skillets generally work satisfactorily
if
used at medium heat as the manufacturer
recommends,
Wok Cooking (on
models with sealed burners)
We recommend
that you
use only
a flat-bottomed
wok.
They
are available
at your local retail store°
Do
not
use
woks
that
have
support
rings.
Use
of these
types
of
woks,
with or without
the ring in
place,
can be dangerou&
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 without
the ring.
You could be seriously
burned
if the wok tipped over.
