Hintsandtips

Pottery

Remember that a wide-bottomed pan allows a faster cookingthananarrowone.

Always use pots which properly fit what you have to cook.

Particularly make sure that the pans are not too small forliquids,sincethesecouldeasilyoverflow. Moreover,thepansshouldnotbetoolargeforafaster cooking. In fact, grease and juices may spread on the bottomandburneasily.

Itisbettertousenon-openablemouldsforbakingcakes. In fact, an openable mould lets juices and sugar leak through, falling on the bottom of the oven and consequentlyburningonthebottomofthebakingtray, makingcleaningdifficult.

Avoidputtingplastic-handledpansintheovenasthey arenotheat-proof.

You should use pans with the right diameter to fit the burner,inordertomakethemostoutofit,thusreducing gasconsumptionasinFig.5.
