Flame Size
For most cooking, start on the highest control setting and then turn to a lower one to
complete the process. Usethe chart below as a guide for determining proper flame size for
various types of cooking. The size and type of utensil used and the amount of food being
cooked will influence the setting needed for cooking.
For deep fat frying, usea thermometer and adjust the surface control knob accordingly. If
the fat istoo cool, the food will absorb the fat and be greasy.If the fat istoo hot, the food will
brown so quickly that the center will be undercooked. Do not attempt to deep fat fry too
much food at once asthe food will neither brown nor cook properly.
*Flame size
High Flame
Medium Flame
Low Flame
Type of Cooking
Start most foods; bring water to a boil; pan broiling.
Maintain a slow boil; thicken sauces, gravies; steam.
Keep foods cooking; poach; stew.
* These settings are based on using medium-weight alumin um pans with lids. Settings
may vary when using other types of pans.
Never extend the flame
beyond the outer edge of the
utensil. A higher flame simply
wastes heat and energy, and
increases your risk of being
burned by the flame.

The color of the flame isthe key to proper burner adjustment. A good flame isclear, blue and hardly visible in a well-lighted room.
Eachcone of flame should be steady and sharply defined. Adjust or clean burner if flame isyellow-orange To clean burner, see
