Surface Cooking

Cookware

Using proper cookware

The size and type of cookware used will influence
the setting needed for best cooking results.
Cookware should have flat bottoms that make good
contact with the entire grate surface. Check for
flatness by rotating a ruler across the bottom of the
cookware.

Cookware material types

The cookware material determines how evenly and
quickly heat is transferred from the surface element
to the pan bottom. The most popular materials
available are:

• Aluminum - Excellent heat conductor. Some

types of food will cause it to darken (Anodized
aluminum cookware resists staining & pitting).

• Copper - Excellent heat conductor but discolors

easily.

• Stainless steel - Slow heat conductor with

uneven cooking results. Is durable, easy to clean
and resists staining.

• Cast iron - A poor heat conductor however will

retain heat very well. Cooks evenly once cooking
temperature is reached.

• Porcelain-enamel on metal - Heating

characteristics will vary depending on base
material.

• Glass- Slow heat conductor.

Cookware should always:

• Have a flat bottom.

• Have tight fitting lids.

• Be well balanced.

• Be made of a material that conducts heat well.

• Be easy to clean.
