quickly than those with thicker walls.

deep, as they guarantee quicker heating. Cooking is not made quicker by placing narrow pans on wide hot
plates. The only result is a waste of energy. For most appropriate use, place smaller pans on the small hot
plates and larger pans on the large hot plates.
In order to reduce energy consumption, it is advised that you place a lid on the pans.
