Cookware
IMPORTANT: Do not leave empty cookware on a hot surface
cooking area, element, or surface burner.
Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides, and a
well-fitting lid, and the material should be of medium-to-heavy
thickness.
Rough finishes may scratch the cooktop or grates. Aluminum
and copper may be used as a core or base in cookware.
Cookware material is a factor in how quickly and evenly heat
is transferred, which affects cooking results.
Cookware with nonstick surfaces should not be used under
the broiler.
Check for flatness by placing the straight edge of a ruler across
the bottom of the cookware. While you rotate the ruler, no
space or light should be visible between it and the cookware.

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.
Cookware Characteristics
Ceramic or
Ceramic glass
■ Follow manufacturer’s instructions.
■ Heats slowly but unevenly.
■ Ideal results on low to medium heat
settings.
Copper ■ Heats very quickly and evenly.
■ May leave copper residues,
which may be diminished if cleaned
immediately after cooking.
Earthenware/
Stoneware
■ Follow manufacturer’s instructions.
■ Use on low heat settings.
Porcelain
enamel-on-steel
or cast iron
■ See stainless steel or cast iron.
Stainless steel ■ Heats quickly but unevenly.
■ A core or base of aluminum or copper
on stainless steel provides even
heating.
For best results, the cookware should be centered above
the burner with the bottom sitting level on the grate. The flame
should be adjusted so that it does not extend up the sides
of the pan.
Home Canning
When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface
burners between batches. This allows time for the most
recently used areas to cool.
■ Center the canner on the grate above the burner.
■ Do not place canner on 2 surface burners at the same time.
■ For more information, contact your local agricultural
extension office, or refer to published home canning guides.
Companies that manufacture home canning products can
also offer assistance.
