Table – Cooking
Select the right pot size for each burner. The diameter
of the pot or pan base should be the same size as the
hotplate.
Cooking times may vary depending on the type of food,
its weight and quality. Deviations are therefore possible.
You yourself can best judge the optimum cooking time.
Vitamins and minerals in the food can easily be lost.
You should therefore use as little water as possible
when cooking, so that the food retains its vitamins and
minerals. Select short cooking times so that the
vegetables remain firm and full of nutrients.
