COOKING EQUIPMENT SAUCEPANS How To Use Your Hob Conventional Ceramic Hobs Pans should have flat bases and be approximately the same size as the cooking area. 1. Before using your hob, always ensure the surface of the cooking areas and the saucepans are clean and dry.
COOKING EQUIPMENT Do not leave the fat or oil on the frying pan on the hob to store it, in case the hob is inadvertantly switched on. 1. Preparing the food Seal the food by coating with flour, egg and breadcrumbs or batter. Do not use a basket with batter coated food as they will stick. 2. Amount of oil For safety purposes, fill the pan only one-third full of fat or oil. 3. Testing the temperature of the oil It is advisable to test the temperature of the oil with a thermometer.
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING Before carrying out the following instruction, make sure that the appliance is DISCONNECTED from the electricity supply. Helpful Tips Make sure the bottom of utensils and cooking areas are clean and dry. Select the correct heat settings and use saucepans large enough to accommodate and liquid to eliminate boilovers and splattering. If possible, wipe up food spills from adjacent heating areas before using the areas for cooking. Note: Use recommended ceramic hob cleaners only.
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING How To Deal With Metal Marks Metal deposits can be identified as grey/brown marks on the ceramic surface and are usually caused by dragging saucepans with aluminium bases, particu-larly when new, across the ceramic surface. To avoid these marks, protect the surface of the hob with Cleaner Conditioner and lift the saucepans across the heated areas.
PRESERVING 1. Do not use a pan that overlaps the perimeter of the hob trim. 2. To allow for a full rolling boil, the pan should be no more than one third full when all the ingredients have been added. It is better to use two pans rather than overfill one, or use half quantities. 3. Use firm fruit or vegetables and wash well before using. 4. Preserving sugar gives clear jam, however granulated sugar is cheaper and gives equally good flavour. 5.
