Always use cookware that is the right size and place it in
the center of the burner.
Tips
¡ Recommendations for cooking:
– Place all the ingredients into the cookware at the
same time when cooking soups, creams, lentil stews
or chickpeas.
– Preheat the oil when frying. Once you have started
frying the food, maintain the temperature by adjusting
the power if necessary. Maintain the temperature of
the oil between different batches and turn the food
frequently.
¡ Recommendations to reduce the cooking time:
– Use a pressure cooker to cook creamy soups and
legumes. Follow the manufacturer's instructions of
the pressure cooker. Add all the ingredients at the
same time at the start.
– Bring the water to a boil before adding pasta, rice or
potatoes and then adjust the power level to continue
boiling.
– Use a lid to cook rice and potatoes.
