10 Surface Cooking Placement of burner grates Place grates on the Ceramic Glass Cooktop. Be sure they are right located inside the stainless steel frame. ATTENTION: Do not slide the grates on the stainless steel frame, doing so can damage the surface. Flame Size 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 Low Flame Type of Cooking Start most foods; bring water to a boil; pan broiling Maintain a slow boil; thicken sauces, gravies; steam Keep foods cooking; poach; stew *These settings are based on using mediumweight 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. RIGHT Proper Burner Adjustments WRONG 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.
