Type of Cooking
Start most foods; bring water to a boil; pan broiling,
Maintain a slow boil; thicken sauces, gravies; steaming,
Keep foods cooking; poach; stewing,
Never extend the flame beyond the
outer edge of the utensik A higher
flame simply wastes heat and energy,
and increases the risk of being burned
by the gas flame,
For deep fat frying -use a thermometer and adjust the surface control knob
accordingly, if the fat is too cool, the food will absorb the fat and be greasy, if
the fat is too hot, the food will brown so quickly that the center will be
undercooked, Do not attempt to deep fat fry too much food at once as the food
will neither brown nor cook properly,
*Note: Settings are based on using medium-weight metaJ or aJuminum pans, Settings may vary when using other
types of pans, The color of the flame is the key to proper burner adjustment, A good flame is clear, blue and hardly
visible in a well-lighted room, Each cone of flame should be steady and sharp, Adjust or clean burner if flame is yellow-
orange,
