Deep Fat Frying
Do not overfill cookware with fat that
may spill over when adding food. Frosty
foods bubble vigorously. Watch food
frying at high temperatures. Keep range
and hood clean from grease.
Home Canning Tips
Be sure the canner is centered over the
surface unit.
Make sure the canner is flat on the
bottom.
Use recipes and procedures from
reputable sources. These are available
from manufacturers such as Ball
® and
Kerr ® and the Department of Agriculture
Extension Service.
To prevent burns from steam or heat,
use caution when canning.
Use medium- or heavy-weight cookware. Aluminum
cookware conducts heat faster than other metals. Cast-
iron and coated cast-iron cookware are slow to absorb
heat, but generally cook evenly at low to medium heat
settings. Steel pans may cook unevenly if not combined
with other metals.
For best cooking results, pans should be flat on the
bottom. Match the size of the saucepan to the size of
the surface unit. The pan should not extend over the
edge of the trim ring more than 1 inch.
Right Wrong
Not over 1 inch Over 1 inch
Use only flat-bottomed woks.
Wok Cooking
We recommend that you use only a flat-bottomed
wok. They are available at your local retail store.
Do not use woks that have support rings.
Use of these types of woks, with or
without the ring in place, can be
dangerous. Placing the ring over the
surface unit will cause a buildup of heat
that will damage the cooktop.
Do not try to use such woks without the
ring. You could be seriously burned if the
wok tipped over.
