HELPFUL HINTS...
Aluminum: Medium-weight cookware is recommended because it heats quickly and evenly.
Most foods brown evenly in an aluminum skillet. Use saucepans with tight-fitting lids when
cooking with minimum amounts of water.
Cast-iron: if heated slowly, most skillets will give satisfactory results.
Enamelware: Under some conditions, the enamel of some cookware may melt,
cookware manufacturer's recommendations for cooking methods.
Follow
Glass: There are two types of glass cookware - those for oven use only and those for top-of-
range cooking (saucepans, coffee and teapots).
Heatproof Glass Ceramic: Can be used for either surface or oven cooking. It conducts heat
very slowly and cools very slowly. Check cookware manufacturer’s direction to be sure it can
be used on gas ranges.
Stainless Steel: This metal alone has poor heating properties and is usually combined with
copper, aluminum or other metals for improved heat distribution. Combination meta! skillets
generally work satisfactorily if used at medium heat as the manufacturer recommends.
Stove top grills: Do not use stove top grills on your sealed gas burners. If you use the stove
top grill on the sealed gas burner it will cause incomplete combustion and can result in exposure
to carbon monoxide levels above allowable current standards. This can be hazardous to your
health.
Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it. Preheat means bringing the oven up to the specified
temperature before putting the food in the oven. To preheat set the oven at me correct
temperature for 10-20 minutes- selecting a higher temperature does not shorten preheat time.
Preheating is necessary for good results when baking cakes, cookies, pastry, and breads. For
most casseroles and roasts, preheating is not necessary'.
