Using the cooktop
Pan size
- Set the cooktop to a high flame when
using a large diameter pan and low
flame when using a small diameter
pan.
- Generally, wide / shallow pans will
heat up quicker and cook more
evenly than narrow / tall ones.
- Using oversized pans may cause the
flames to spread out and damage
the surrounding countertop or other
countertop appliances.
- Do not use small pans with high
flame settings, the flame may climb
the sides of the pan.
- Pots with a smaller diameter than the
grate and pots that do not sit
securely (without wobbling) are
hazardous and should not be used.
Suitable pans
Any heat resistant pan can be used on
a gas burnen
Unlike pans used on an electric
cooktop, the bases do not need to be
even for good results.
Thick pan bases will give more even
results, hot spots are reduced due to
better heat distribution.
Thin pan bases will conduct the heat
faster but not as evenly as thick pan
bases. Stir the food frequently to
prevent burning.
