LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
MIRACLEAN
®
GRIDDLE
(See lighting instructions plate attached to front of MIR-
ACLEAN
®
Griddle).
Make sure that the main gas valve on the gas supply
line to the Miraclean
®
Griddle is in the “ON” position.
1.
Turn gas valve knob to "pilot" position.
2.
Push gas valve knob inwards and push the red
spark ignition button to light the pilot. Then hold the
knob for 90 seconds.
3.
Release the pilot gas valve knob; pilot should
remain burning. Turn the knob to the ON position.
4.
Turn ON/OFF switch to ON position.
5.
Set thermostat knob to desired position.
AIR IN THE SUPPLY LINE MAY REQUIRE A LONGER
THAN NORMAL PERIOD OF TIME TO LIGHT YOUR
MIRACLEAN
®
GRIDDLE DURING INITIAL INSTALLA-
TION, AFTER OVERNIGHT SHUTDOWN, OR WHEN
RELIGHTING.
A 5 MINUTE COMPLETE SHUT OFF PERIOD IS
REQUIRED BEFORE APPLIANCE IS RELIT.
DO NOT LEAVE YOUR MIRACLEAN® GRIDDLE
UNATTENDED.
SHUT DOWN INSTRUCTIONS
1.
Turn ON/OFF switch to "OFF" position.
2.
Rotate thermostat knob to left to "OFF" position.
3.
Turn gas valve knob to "OFF" position.
4.
Check to determine that all burners and pilots are
extinguished.
COOKING WITH YOUR
MIRACLEAN
®
GRIDDLE
You will find that your new Miraclean
®
Griddle has
superb heat transfer. The polished trivalent chrome fin-
ish of the Miraclean
®
reduces the emission of radiant
heat. Radiant heat is measured by emissivity. The radi-
ant heat of a perfect black body has an emissivity of 1.
The radiant heat of a conventionally seasoned Griddle
plate is approximately .87. The radiant heat of the
Miraclean
®
has an emissivity of .078.
You can prove this to yourself by holding your hand
approximately 1/2" above the Miraclean
®
Griddle plate.
At this distance it is difficult to tell whether the Griddle
plate is hot or not. It feels as though the Griddle plate is
barely warm, but if you touch the plate, it will burn you.
The polished trivalent chrome finish on the Miraclean
®
Griddle plate is a wonderful insulator. It prevents the
radiant heat from leaving the griddle plate. It transfers
conducted heat to the food being cooked more rapidly
than other griddle plates, because the food is placed
directly on the metal surface. It is the understanding of
this rapid heat transfer that permits the practical and
beneficial use of the Miraclean
®
Griddle.
The Miraclean
®
Griddle finds an application in all sorts of
griddle work, from cooking wheat cakes to scrambling
eggs. We use these two products as illustrations
because generally wheat cakes are cooked on a hot
griddle. Eggs must be scrambled on a relatively cold
griddle. Between these two extremes fall dozens of grid-
dled items- everything from grilled frankfurters, grilled
Italian sausage, grilled sausage patties, the entire range
of steaks and chops and chicken and fish.
It is necessary to understand that the carmelization of
the meat products being cooked takes place at a higher
rate and at a lower griddle surface temperature because
of the improved heat transfer of the
Miraclean
®
Griddle.
Eggs can not only be scrambled, but can
be fried in any fashion. If the eggs are to
be basted it is necessary to have a metal
cover, and to spill or splash a small amount of water
under the cover so that the steam will baste the top of
the eggs. Eggs require a very low temperature because
generally you do not want the eggs to
be browned on the bottom where they
come in contact with the griddle plate.
Approximately 250°F is ideal for
scrambling or frying eggs.
There are several griddle tools. A
hamburger spatula is like the one pic-
tured here. The hamburger must stick
at least slightly to the griddle to hold its
shape. If it does not stick it shrinks in
diameter, and the center of the meat
becomes thicker. It becomes more of a meat cake than
a hamburger. Therefore, the hamburger spatula has a
strong cutting edge.
An egg spatula is shown in this illustration. An egg
spatula has a long very thin blade so that it can be
slipped under the egg without damaging it or breaking
the yolk. This spatula can also be used for chopping
the scrambled eggs so as they are turned they can be
cooked to perfection without unnecessary browning.
This same spatula is used for omelettes.
