COOKWARE
IMPORTANT: Never leave empty cookware on a hot surface cooking area, element
or surface burner. Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides, a
well fitting lid and the material should be of medium-to-heavy thickness. Rough
finishes may scratch the cooktop. Aluminum and copper may be used as a core or
base in cookware. However, when used as a base it can leave permanent marks
on the cooktop or grates. Cookware material is a factor in how quickly and evenly
heat is transferred, which affects cooking results. A nonstick finish has the same
characteristics as its base material.
For example, aluminum cookware with a non-stick finish will take on the properties
of aluminum.
Use the following chart as a guide for cookware material characteristics.
COOKWARE CHARACTERISTICS
Aluminum: Heats quickly and evenly. Suitable for all types of cooking. Medium or
heavy thickness is best for most cooking tasks.
Cast Iron: Heats slowly and evenly. Good for browning and frying. Maintains
heat for slow cooking.
Ceramic or Ceramic glass: Follow manufacturer’s instructions. Heats slowly, but
unevenly. Ideal results on low to medium heat settings.
Copper: Heats very quickly and evenly.
Earthenware: Follow manufacturer’s instructions. Use on low heat settings.
Porcelain enamel on steel or cast Iron: See stainless steel or cast iron.
Stainless steel: Heats quickly, but unevenly. A core or base of aluminum or copper
on stainless steel provides even heating.
