Cooking table
The table below is intended solely as a guide,
because the heat setting depends on the
quantity of food and the composition of the
pan.
Use the highest setting for:
- bringing to the boil quickly;
- shrinking down leaf vegetables;
- blanching vegetables;
- heating oil, fat and butter;
- frying steak (rare, red);
- pressurising a pressure cooker;
- cooking smooth blancmange and
custard.
Use a slightly lower setting for:
- searing meat;
- frying flatfish, slices or fillet;
- frying cooked potatoes;
- cooking smooth, thickened soups and
sauces;
- frying omelettes;
- frying beef steak (medium, pink-red);
- deep frying (depending on the
temperature and the quantity).
Use a setting slightly above the average
setting for:
- cooking of thick pancakes;
- frying thick pieces of meat in
breadcrumbs;
- cooking through thin pieces of meat;
- broiling large pieces of meat;
- frying blocks of ham or bacon;
- frying raw potatoes;
- frying fish coated with breadcrumbs;
- frying beef olives;
- frying omelettes.
Use the medium settings for:
- completing the cooking of large
quantities;
- defrosting firm vegetables (French
beans, for example).
Use the lowest settings for:
- simmering bouillon;
- stewing pears;
- preparing meat stew;
- completing the cooking of dishes;
- braising vegetables.

COMFORTABLE COOKING
Optimal use of the hob
Do not use pans that are smaller than the
cooking zone. This will prevent food
remains ending up on the red-hot cooking
zone. Burnt-on food remains are difficult to
remove. In addition, the handles may
become too hot and a lot of energy is lost.
Pans that have already been used for
cooking on a gas hob are no longer
suitable for use on a ceramic hob.
Do not use aluminium foil, such as the
trays from ready-made meals, for cooking
food in. If aluminium foil melts on the
cooking surface, it cannot be removed.
Aluminium foil is also a very poor
conductor of heat.
Always pick pans up to move them.
Sliding pans can cause scratches that
cannot be removed.
Only place pans with clean, dry bottoms on
the cooking surface. This will avoid
causing stains that are difficult to remove.
Always keep the lid on the pan when
cooking, in order to avoid energy loss.
Slide the bottom of the pan over a slightly
damp cloth, before placing the pan on the
cooking zone. This prevents dirt getting on
to the cooking surface.
The cooking zone can be switched off 5 to
10 minutes before the end of the cooking
time. The dish will then finish cooking on
the residual heat, provided you keep the lid
on the pan.
