Using the hob correctly
• A wok burner is for very fast heating using a wok or large
• To ensure maximum burner efficiency, it is strongly
recommended that you use only pots and pans with a bottom fitting
the size of the burner used, so that the flame will not spread beyond
the bottom of the vessel (Table 1).
• It is also advisable, as soon as the liquid starts boiling, to turn
down the flame so that it will barely keep the liquid simmering
