Operating Your Cooktop

Accessories

Wok Ring (Part# AWR4): This wok ring is a safe,

convenient way to stir fry. Place the ring on top of

the grate, aligning the wok ring feet with the grate

fingers. It will hold most standard-sized woks.

Griddle/Grill (Part# AGDCT12): The AGDCT12

is an easy-clean reversable griddle on one side, grill

on the other, that sits on top of your cooktop. It is

great for cooking pancakes, eggs, bacon and vari-

ous other pan-fried foods. On the reverse side, grill

marks make steaks, fillets, and burgers like they

were cooked on an outside grill.

See the instructions included with these accessories

at www.dacor.com for further information.

Cooking Tips

For superior cooking performance and to save

energy:

• Boil at the lowest flame height necessary. Food

cooks just as quickly at a gentle boil as it does

at a vigorous, rolling boil. A higher boil than is

necessary wastes energy, cooks away moisture,

and causes a loss in food flavor and nutrients.

• Use low or medium flame when cooking in

cookware that is a poor conductor of heat, such

as glass, ceramic, and cast iron cooking vessels.

• Reduce the flame until it spreads approximately

1/3 of the underneath area of the cookware to

ensure even heating and to reduce scorching.

• Minimize the amount of liquid or fat to reduce

cooking times.

• Use a timer rather than repeatedly removing the

lid to check food. Doing so will decrease cooking

time and will save energy.

• Dacor’s SimmerSear™ feature allows you

precision control of the flame. The larger the

burner size, the wider the range of control.

burners
