Griddle
Using the griddle (66913 on_y}
A griddle is ideal for cooking a variety of foods. Cook steak, tender cuts of meat, panini and char
grilled vegetables on the ribbed side and griddle scones, pancakes, pikeJets,poJenta and eggs on
the flat side.
The surfacesof a cast iron griddle will become more and more non stick as cooking oils become
baked in. This 'seasoning' process can be started by coating both surfaces of the griddle with
cooking oil and baking in the oven at 300 °F (150 °C) for about an hour.
Cooking with a griddle
Only use the griddle over the two lea hand burners.
Heat the griddle for a few minutes before using.
Brush the food, not the griddle, with oil, to reduce splatter and smoking.
Cook steakand vegetables at high temperatures on the ribbed side of the griddle.Turn the steak
only once, about halfway through the cooking time and test by pressing the surface of the steak.
The softer the meat is,the'rarer'or lesswell done it will be.
Griddle scones, pancakes, pikelets, polenta and eggs are best cooked slowly at medium to low
temperatures on the flat side of the griddle.
Prolonged cooking with the griddle at high temperatures may damage the cooktop.
Cleaning a cast-iron griddle
Leave the griddle to cool before cleaning. Scrape away any food residue and wash in warm
soapy water.
Do not scour to tile bare metal when cleaning or you will remove the non stick coating that has
built up during cooking.
Dry the griddle thoroughly and wipe with a thin coating of cooking oil to prevent rust forming,
especially when the griddle is new.
