For safe handling of cookware, never let the
flame extend up the sides of the cookware.
Any flame larger than the bottom of the
cookware is wasted and only serves to
heat the handle.

Aluminum: Medium-weight cookware is
recommended because it heats quickly
and evenly. Most foods brown evenly in
an aluminum skillet. Use saucepans with
tight-fitting lids when cooking with
minimum amounts of water.

Cast-iron: If heated slowly, most skillets
will give satisfactory results.

Enamelware: Under some conditions, 
the enamel of some cookware may 
melt. Follow cookware manufacturer’s
recommendations for cooking methods.

Glass: There are 2 types of glass
cookware—those for oven use only 
and those for top-of-range cooking
(saucepans, coffee and teapots). 
Glass conducts heat very slowly.

Heatproof Glass Ceramic: Can be used 
for either surface or oven cooking. It
conducts heat very slowly and cools very
slowly. Check cookware manufacturer’s
directions to be sure it can be used on 
gas ranges.

Stainless Steel: This metal alone has 
poor heating properties and is usually
combined with copper, aluminum 
or other metals for improved heat
distribution. Combination metal skillets
usually work satisfactorily if they are used
with medium heat as the manufacturer
recommends.
