Cooktops with a ceramic glass surface do not
require special pots and pans; however,
cookware will affect overall cooking efficiency.
For best results, we recommend medium- to
heavy-gauge metal cookware with flat, thick
and smooth bottoms and a good-fitting lid.
Use the following guidelines when selecting
cookware:
Select cookware with a diameter that
matches the cooking zone. When a pan is
placed on the heating element, it should not
extend beyond the ring around the cooking
zone. Cookware for the bridge-zone element
should match the cooking zone size as
closely as possible. Refer to the Cookware
Selection Guide.
Look for pans that are made of materials
with good heat conductivity, such as
aluminum and copper. These metals are
sometimes found ”sandwiched” between
the inner and outer layers of the pan. If
present, whether visible from the outside or
not, they aid in evenly conducting heat.
Cast iron and especially glass cookware will
be slower to heat. Glass cookware should
only be used as recommended by the
cookware manufacturer.
Cover pans while cooking; covers improve
cooking efficiency. Water boils faster, using
less energy, and the kitchen stays cooler.
Select high-sided (deep) pans rather than
ones with very wide bases and low sides.
High sides will minimize liquids boiling
over the pan.
Avoid pots and pans with uneven or
rounded bottom surfaces. Some specialty
cookware such as woks, pressure cookers,
canning modules and deep fat fryers
must be carefully selected to meet the
guidelines above.
