PRACTICAL TIPS:
Use the correct cooking utensil for the size of the hob.
Do not use excess water when cooking. The more water used, the more energy needed.
Whenever possible, use a pressure cooker, it saves time and energy.
Only switch the hobs on when the cookware is ready and turn the hobs off before removing the
cookware.
Cookware must be flat bottomed.
Use the right sized cookware for the quantity being cooked. Using large sized cookware for small
amounts increases energy consumption.
Cooking without using the lid on the cookware increases energy consumption.
