EnergySavingTips
@ Use cooking utensils of medium weight
aluminum, tight-fitting covers, and flat bot-
toms which completely cover the heated
portion of the surface unit.
@ Watch foods when bringing them quickly
to cooking temperatures at HIGH heat.
When food reaches cooking temperature,
reduce heat immediately to lowest setting
that will keep it cooking.
*
Use residual heat with surface cooking
whenever possible. For example, when
cooking eggs in the shell, bring water to
—
boil, then turn to OFF position to complete
the cooking.
@ Cook fresh vegetables with a minimum
amount of water in a covered pan.
@
Always
turn surface unit OFF before
removing utensil.
O Use correct heat for cooking task. . .
HIGH heats to start cooking (if time allows,
do not use HIGH heat to start), MEDIUM
HIGH—quick brownings, MEDIUM—SIOW
frying, LOW—finish cooking most quanti-
ties, WARM—double boiler heat, finish
cooking, and special for small quantities.
e
o When boiling water for tea or coffee,
heat only the amount needed. It is not eco-
nomical to boil a container full of water for
e
only one or two cups.
