Cooking tips
The high air movement of this downdraft
system can increase the cooking times for some
foods. It may take longer to reach high cooking
temperatures if the downdraft isturned to high
right away. Adjust the fan speed for best cooking
results.
For best results when heating oil for deep frying
or when boiling water, use the front surface
units or wait until the water is boiling or the oil
is at frying temperatures before turning on the
downdraft.
The downdraft may not completely capture all
the steam from pans on the front burners.
Conning When canning foods in a water-bath canner,
a gentle but steady boil must be maintained
continuously for the required time.
When canning foods in a pressure canner, the
pressure must be maintained continuously for
the required time.
Use of the blower on a high fan speed setting
when canning may reduce the temperature
enough to stop boiling. While canning, we
recommend using the downdraft at a lower
speed and using the front surface unit.
