Surface Cooking
Using proper cookware
Cookware should have fiat bottoms that make
good contact with the entire surface heating
element. Check for flatness by rotating a ruler
across the bottom of the cookware (See Fig.l).
Be sure to follow the recommendations for using
cookware as shown in Fig. 2.
Note: The size and type of cookware used will
influence the setting needed for best cooking results.
Deep fat frying - Use a thermometer and adjust
the surface control knob accordingly. If the fat is
too cool, the food will absorb the fat and be
greasy. If the fat is too hot, the food will brown so
quickly that the center witl be undercooked. Do
not attempt to deep fat fry too much food at once
as the food will neither brown nor cook properly.
