Cookware - Select cookware that fits the size of - Do not use pots or pans that have the burner: bottoms with pronounced edges. Large diameter = large burner Small diameter = small burner - Using cookware that is too large can cause the flames to spread out and damage the surrounding countertop or other appliances.
Energy saving tips - Whenever possible, keep pots and pans covered while cooking. Doing so will prevent unnecessary heat loss. - Wide, shallow cookware heats up faster and is therefore preferable to tall, narrow cookware. - Cook with as little water as possible. - Reduce the power setting once the water has come to a boil or the oil/fat is hot enough for frying.
