Cooking Tips
For superior cooking performance and to save
energy:
• Boil at the lowest flame necessary. Food cooks
just as quickly at a gentle boil as it does at a
vigorous, rolling boil. A stronger boil than is nec-
essary wastes energy, cooks away moisture, and
causes a loss in food flavor and nutrients.
• Use low or medium flame when cooking in cook-
ware that is a poor conductor of heat, such as
glass, ceramic, and cast iron cooking vessels.
Reduce the flame until it spreads approximately
1/3 of the underneath area of the cookware to
ensure even heating and to reduce scorching.
• Minimize the amount of liquid or fat to reduce
cooking times.
• Use a timer rather than repeatedly removing the
lid to check food. Doing so will decrease cooking
time and save energy.
• Dacor’s SimmerSear™ feature allows you preci-
sion control of the flame. The larger the burner
size, the wider the range of control.
• See page 4 for the heat ranges of the differ-
ent burners.
Accessories
Wok Ring (Part# AWR4): This wok ring is a safe,
convenient way to stir fry. Place the ring on top of
the grate, aligning the wok ring feet with the grate
fingers. It will hold most standard-sized woks.
Griddle (Part# AG13): The AG13 easy clean
griddle is coated with a non-stick finish. It is great
for cooking pancakes, eggs, bacon, steaks, and
various other pan-fried foods. It is designed to sit on
top of your cooktop burner grates. A maximum set-
ting of medium is recommended to avoid damage to
the cooktop. See the instructions included with the
griddle or at www.dacor.com for further information.
