Suggested Cooking
Guidelines
The size and type of cookware, type and amount of food
and BTU of the burner will determine where to set the
knob for cooking operations. Use the graphics printed
around the knobs as a guide. The following descriptions
will aid in choosing the setting that will give optimum
results:
Hold or Warm: Food maintains a temperature above
140° F without continuing to cook. Food is heated on a
higher flame size until it reaches this temperature and then
the flame size is reduced. Never use a hold or warm
setting to reheat cold food. Be sure knob is adjusted to
produce a stable flame. (:Usethe LOW setting or the
simmer burner to keep food warm.)
Simmer: Food forms bubbles that barely break the
surface. Foods are between 185 ° F and 200 ° F. A simmer
setting can also be used to steam or poach foods or
continue cooking covered foods. (:Adjust the knob between
HIGH and LOW to obtain the desired simmer action.)
Slow Boil: Food forms bubbles at a moderate pace. A
slow boil setting can also be used for most frying and for
maintaining the cooking of large amounts of liquids.
(:Adjust the knob between HIGH and LOW to obtain the
desired boil action.)
Boil: Liquid forms bubbles at a rapid pace. A fast boil
setting can be used to bring liquid to a boil, brown meat,
stir fry, saute, and heat oil for frying before turning to a
lower setting. The HIGH setting is always used to bring
liquids to a boil. Once the liquid boils, always reduce the
flame size to the lowest setting that will maintain the boil
action. (Turn the knob to HIGH then adjust the flame size
to fit the size of the pan.)
