Surface Cooking

For most cooking, start on the highest control setting and then turn to a lower one to

complete the process. Use the chart below as a guide for determining proper flame size

for various types of cooking. The size and type of utensil used and the amount of food

being cooked will influence the setting needed for cooking.

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.

*Flame Size

High Flame

Medium Flame

RIGHT

Low Flame

*These settings are based on using medium-weight aluminum pans with

lids. Settings may vary when using other types of pans.

Never extend the flame beyond the outer edge of the utensil. A higher flame

simply wastes heat and energy, and increases your risk of being burned by the

flame.

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 sharply

defined. Adjust or clean burner if flame is yellow-orange. To clean burner, see instructions

under General Care & Cleaning.
