Hold or Warm: Food maintains a temperature above 140° F
without continuing to cook. Food is heated on a higher setting
until it reaches this temperature. Never use a hold or warm
setting to reheat cold food. Be sure knob is adjusted to
produce a consistant temperature. (Use the Low setting to
keep food warm.)
Simmer: Food forms bubbles that barely break the surface.
Foods are between 185° F and 200° F.A simmer setting can
also be used to steam or poach foods or continue cooking
covered foods. (Adjust the knob between High and Low to
obtain the desired simmer action.)
Slow Boil: Food forms bubbles at a moderate pace. A slow
boil setting can also be used for most frying and for
maintaining the cooking of large amounts of liquids. (Adjust
the knob between High and Low to obtain the desired boil
action.)
Boil: Liquid forms bubbles at a rapid pace. A fast boil setting
can be used to bring liquid to a boil, brown meat, stir fry,
saute, and heat oil for frying before turning to a lower setting.
The High setting is always used to bring liquids to a boil.
Once the liquid boils, always turn the control to the lowest
setting that will maintain the boil action.
