Choosing Your Utensils
Do not use utensils with rough bases.
Do not use lightweight utensils with thin, distorted or uneven bases.
Do not use lightweight enamelled steel utensils.
Do not use cast iron utensils.
Do not use utensils with recessed, scrolled or ridged bases.
Do not use a utensil which has a base concavity greater than l mm as this will reduce the
performance of the hob.
Do not use a utensil with a convex base.
Do not use glass ceramic utensils.
Do not use use lightweight saucepans with plain thin copper bases on ceramic or halogen hot
plates.
Note: All copper pans are excellent conductors of heat, and are hard wearing and strong, but need
quite a lot of care. They can be very heavy and do not usually have completely flat bases. The
interiors are usually lined with a different material such as tin.
A stainless steel pan with a sandwich base of aluminium and stainless steel is an excellent conductor
of heat and is suitable for use on ceramic and halogen hobs, providing they are used in
accordance with the saucepans manufacturers’ recommendations.
Stainless steel pans with a sandwich base of aluminium and copper are excellent conductors of heat.
If using stainless steel saucepans with aluminium and copper sandwich bases on ceramic and halo-
gen hobs, the use of these pans must be in accordance with the saucepan manufacturers’ recom-
mendations. Extra care should be taken to ensure the base of the pan and the
hob is cleaned, and the hob conditioned, after each and every use, when using this type of saucepan.
If these recommendations are not followed, the result will be a build up of small copper deposits on
the surface of your hob which, if not cleaned after each use, will result in permanent marking of your
hob.
Always lift the pan from the hob, do not drag or slide across the hob surface as damage may occur.
