Choice of pan/frying pan
A cooker with a ceramic glass plate makes
greater demands on your pots and pans that
a cooker with heating plates. Remember the
following:
• Check the bottoms of pots and pans. Pans
with a convex bottom (bulging outwards)
tend to swivel on the ceramic glass plate
and provide poor heating contact.
• Aluminium has good heat conductivity, but
can leave silvery marks on the plate.
• Casseroles and pans that are made of
glass or are enamelled with deep patterns
cause more wear if they are pulled back-
wards and forwards on the plate than pots
and pans made of other materials.
In order to save both time and energy the
bottom of a pan or frying-pan
• must cover the zone completely. But if the
bottom is too small, then boil over can
easily stick to the plate.
• must be smooth or finely patterned.
• must be absolutely flat. If the bottom bulg-
es too much outwards or inwards, heat-
ing-up times become longer.
When you buy new pans, it is advisable to
choose a stainless steel model with a sand-
wich-bottom, that is to say a bottom with
layers of different metals. Certain pans are
concave when cold but become flat when
they are heated up.
