IMPORTANT: Do not leave empty cookware on a hot surface
cooking area, element or surface burner.
Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides and a well-
fitting lid, and the material should be of medium-to-heavy
thickness.
Rough finishes may scratch the cooktop. Aluminum and copper
may be used as a core or base in cookware. However, when used
as a base they can leave permanent marks on the surfaces.
Cookware material is a factor in how quickly and evenly heat is
transferred, which affects cooking results. A nonstick finish has the
same characteristics
as its base material. For example, aluminum
cookware with a nonstick finish will take on the properties of
aluminum.
Cookware with nonstick surfaces should not be used under the
broiler.
Check for flatness by placing the straight edge of a ruler across the
bottom of the cookware. While you rotate the ruler, no space or
light should be visible between it and the cookware.
Use the following chart as a guide for cookware material
characteristics.
COOKWARE
CHARACTERISTICS
Aluminum
•
Heats quickly and evenly.
Suitable for all types of cooking.
Medium or heavy thickness is best for
most cooking tasks.
May leave aluminum residues, which
may be diminished if cleaned
immediately after cooking.
Cast iron
•
Heats slowly and evenly.
•
Good for browning and frying.
•
Maintains heat for slow cooking.
•
Rough edges or burrs may scratch the
cooktop.
Ceramic or
Ceramic glass
•
Follow manufacturer's
instructions.
•
Heats slowly, but unevenly.
•
Ideal results on low to medium heat
settings.
•
May scratch the cooktop.
Copper
Heats very quickly and evenly.
May leave copper residues, which
may be diminished if cleaned
immediately after cooking
Can leave a permanent stain or bond
to the cooktop if overheated.
Earthenware
Porcelain
enamel-on-
steel or cast
iron
•
Follow manufacturer's
instructions.
•
Use on low heat settings.
•
May scratch the cooktop.
•
See stainless steel or cast iron.
•
Porcelain enamel bakeware without
the metal base may bond to the
cooktop if overheated.
Stainless
steel
•
Heats quickly, but unevenly.
A core or base of aluminum or copper
on stainless steel provides even
heating.
Use flat-bottomed
cookware for best cooking results and energy
efficiency. The cookware should be about the same size as the
cooking area outlined on the cooktop. Cookware should not extend
more than 1/2"(1.3 cm) outside the area.
