Surface Cooking
Stair_less Steel Rar_ge
The correct height of tt_e flame mainly depends
on the size of the bottom
of the cooking utensil,
tt_e material
of tt_e cooking utensil, tt_e amount
and Vpe of food and tt_e amount
of liquid in
tt_e utensil.
For safe handling
of cookware,
never let tt_e
flame extend up tt_e sides of tt_e cookware. Any
flame larger dmn tt_e bottom of tt_e cookware is
wasted heat anti only set_,es to heat tt_e handle.
Watch the flame, not the knob, as you reduce
heat.
. For safety reasons the flame must never extend
beyond the bottom
of the cooking utensil.
Never allow flames to curl up the side of the
pan.
. Be vm T careflfl if the pans have plastic handles,
as these large professional-size
burners
can
flame up on the outside of the pan anti melt or
bubble the handles.
. Utensils which conduct
heat slowly (such as
glass-cermnic)
should be used with medium
to
low flmnes. If you are cooking with a large
amount of liquid a slightly larger flame can
be used.
