Cast iron griddle A griddle is available as an optional accessory.
To use a griddle:
1 Place the griddle on top of the pan support.
2 Pre-heat the griddle on full power tor 4-5 minutes before adding the food. Most foods
(eggs in particular) will require a small amount of oil to help prevent sticking. Turn the
food half-way through the cooking time to sear both sides. The more the griddle is
used, the better the cast iron will absorb oils, giving it a natural non-stick finish.
