• Unstable or deformed pans should not be placed on the burners or
plates in order to avoid accidents caused by upsetting or boiling over.
Recommended dimensions of saucepans to be used on the hob burners
are specified in the following table.
Pottery
Always use pots which properly fit
what you have to cook.
Particularly make sure that the pans
are not too small for liquids, since
these could easily overflow.
Moreover, the pans should not be too
large for a faster cooking. In fact,
grease and juices may spread on the
bottom and burn easily.
You should use oans with the right
diameter to fit the burner, in order to
make the most out of it, thus
reducing gas consumption.
It is also advisable to cover any boiling casserole and, as soon as the
liquid starts boiling, lower the flame enough to keep the boiling point.
