Surface Cooking (continued)
Top-of-Range Cookware
Aluminum: Medium-weight cookware is recommend-
ed because it heats quickly and evenly_ Most foods
brown evenly in an aluminum skilleL Use saucepans
with tight-fitting lids when cooking with minimum
amounts of water..
Cast iron: If heated slowly, most skillets will give sat-
isfactory results.
Enamelware: Under some conditions, the enamel of
some cookware may melt. Follow cookware manufac-
turer's recommendations for cooking methods.
Glass: There are two types of glass cookware--
those for oven use only and those for top-of-range
cooking (saucepans, coffee and teapots)° Glass con*
ducts heat very slowly.
Neatproof Glass Ceramic: Can be used for either
surface or oven cooking. It conducts heat very slowly
and cools very slowly. Check cookware manufactur-
er's directions to be sure it can be used on gas
ranges..
Stainless Steel: This metal alone has poor heating
properties and is usually combined with copper, alu-
minum or other metals for improved heat distribution.
Combination metal skillets generally work satisfactorily if
used at medium heat as the manufacturer recommends,
Wok Cooking (on
models with sealed burners)
We recommend that you
use only a flat-bottomed
wok. They are available
at your local retail store°
Do not use woks that
have support rings. Use
of these types of woks,
with or without the ring in
place, can be dangerou&
Placing the ring over the ......
burner grate may cause the burner to work improperly
resulting in carbon monoxide levels above allowable
current standards. This could be dangerous to your
health., Do not try to use such woks without the ring.
You could be seriously burned if the wok tipped over.
