COOKING GUIDElINES AND COOKWARE

Cooking guidelines
IMpORTANT!
●● Never leave the cooktop unattended when in use. Boilover causes smoking and
greasy spills that may ignite.
●● Take care when deep-frying: oil or fat can overheat very quickly, particularly on a high
setting.
●● Using a lid will reduce cooking times through retaining the heat.
●● Minimise the amount of liquid to reduce cooking times.
Cookware
Use saucepans with thick flat bases.
●●
Do not let large saucepans or frying pans overlap the bench, as this can deflect heat
●●
onto your countertop and damage its surface.
Always make sure saucepans are stable by centring them over the burner.
●●
Make sure the size of the pan matches the size of the burner. A small pot on a large
●●
burner is not efficient.The following table shows the minimum and maximum saucepan
base diameters that may be used on each burner:
