Use
Cookware
Ideally, cookware should have a flat
bottom, straight sides, a tight-fitting lid and
medium-to-heavy thickness.
Rough cookware finishes may scratch the
appliance. Aluminum and copper may be
used in cookware as a core material or
base. However, when used as a base they
can leave permanent marks on the
appliance or grates.
Cookware properties are a factor in how
quickly and evenly heat is distributed, which
affects cooking results. A non-stick finish has
the same characteristics as its base material.
For example, a non- stick finish on aluminum
cookware will take on the properties of
aluminum.
Refer to the following chart as a guide to
the physical properties of cookware.
Aluminum
• Heats quickly and evenly.
• Suitable for all types of cooking.
• Medium or heavy thickness is best for
most cooking tasks.
Cast iron
• Heats slowly and evenly.
• Good for browning and frying.
• Maintains heat for slow cooking.
Ceramic or glass-ceramic
• Follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
• Heats slowly but unevenly.
• Best results with low to medium heat
settings.
Copper
• Heats very quickly and evenly.
Earthenware
• Follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
• Use low heat settings.
Porcelain enameled steel or cast iron
• See stainless steel or cast iron.
Stainless steel
• Heats quickly but unevenly.
• Stainless steel cookware with aluminum
or copper as a core material or bottom
provides even heating.
