Cookware and the characteristics
Use the following chart as a guide for cookware material characteristics.
Cookware Characteristics
Aluminum
Heats quickly and evenly.
Suitable for all types of cooking.
Medium or heavy thickness is best for most cooking tasks.
Cast Iron
Heats slowly and evenly.
Good for browning and frying.
Maintains heat for slow cooking.
Stainless Steel
Heats quickly, but unevenly.
A core or base of aluminum or copper on stainless steel provides even heating.
DEEP FRYING

the food will absorb the fat. If the fat is too hot the food will brown quickly and the center will be undercooked.
