Pottery Always use pots which properly fit what you have to cook. Particularly make sure that the pans are not too small for liquids, since these could easily overflow. Moreover, the pans should not be too large for a faster cooking. In fact, grease and juices may spread on the bottom and burn easily. You should use oans with the right diameter to fit the burner, in order to make the most out of it, thus reducing gas consumption.
Hints and Tips on Cooking with the Hob When possible, start cooking with the larger flame in order to reach to required cooking temperature, then adjust the flame as required. The outside edge of the gas flame is much hotter than the inside. Therefore, flame should not spread over the saucepan bottom, in order to save energy and avoid metal or plastic handles to be overheated. It is not necessary to use special pans for gas cookers.
