OPERATING
THE
INFRARED
SEARING
BURNER
61
Remove food from the infrared searing
burner
immediately
after searing.
Cook on the main
burner
sections
to your desired
preference.
Searing
Burner
Searing
food is used in many fine restaurants
throughout
the country.
It can be a challenge
though
as it cooks at a higher
heat, When done correctly,
searing
will help hold in flavor making
food more moist.
Personal
tastes along
with types and thickness
of cuts
of meat vary so experiment
to get the results
you
desire.
In general,
follow
the hints below.
1.
Searing
should always
be done at the beginning
of
cooking.
2,
Turn on the infrared
searing
burner
and preheat
the grill for about
5 minutes.
The searing
burner
should
always be used on the Hi setting
to sear
food.
3,
Infrared
searing
burners
produce
very hot and
concentrated
heat. Therefore,
we recommend
searing each side of your food for no longer than 1
to 2 minutes
at a time to avoid charring
and
flare-ups.
4.
You can rotate
food 90 degrees
to obtain cross
searing
marks.
Never use water
to control
flare-ups
when using
an infrared
searing
burner.
Water will crack the
hot porcelain
on the burner
and damage
your
burner.
CARE
OF THE
INFRARED
SEARING
BURNER
Infrared
searing
burners
have ceramic
surfaces,
so
care must
be taken to avoid damage.
1.
Never allow water
or moisture
to come in contact
with a hot burner
as it can crack the ceramic
and
damage
your burner.
2.
Never allow hard or heavy objects
to impact
the
surface,
Use special care when removing
grates
as
they can damage
the ceramic
surface
if dropped.
5,
While infrared
searing
burners
will vaporize
most
grease and drippings,
it is a good idea to control
flare-ups
by trimming
excess fat and repositioning
meat during
cooking.
