WARNING

The effect that top burner flame size should be adjusted so it does not extend beyond the edge of the cooking utensil.

This is an instruction based on safety considerations.

USE OF THE COUP FEU

The large “Coup feu” solid cast iron plate made of concentric rings allows you to rest the pan (or even several pans)

directly on the surface (Fig. 32, 33). It is heated by means of a gas burner (Fig. 31). The plate is designed to provide

a moderately intense heat which is well distributed over the surface. This is ideal for slow cooking and particularly

for sauces, browning and grilling, heating dishes or keeping them warm. Switch the burner on 15/20 minutes before

use to allow the cast iron plate to accumulate heat. You will then be able to use the plate even when switched off for

a further 10/15 minutes. The middle of the plate is the area where the highest temperatures are reached whereas the

outer part is cooler. By simply moving the pan from the middle to the outside of the plate, you can obtain different

cooking intensities without regulating the ﬂ ame. Pan dimensions permitting, several dishes can be cooked at the

same time (Fig. 33). If necessary it can be used as a handy top, providing ample space for resting pots and pans.

CLEANING THE COUP FEU PLATE

The hotplate should be cleaned while still warm using the products normally used in the kitchen for metal surfaces.

Rub with a wire pad, following the direction of the satin ﬁ nish. Dry well immediately. If you want to give the plate a

better appearance, after cleaning, apply a coat of Supercromo paste. If you do not intend to use the hotplate for

long periods, after normal cleaning apply a thin ﬁ lm of liquid parafﬁ n (Vaseline oil) with a wad of cotton wool This

treatment is necessary to prevent any formation of surface oxides. When next turning on the plate you will notice the

evaporation of the parafﬁ n oil used. This phenomenon will disappear in a few seconds. The hotplate may sometimes

present phenomena of surface oxidation due to the presence of humidity, but above all due to lack of use. You

are therefore advised to use it frequently to prevent any oxidation. Never leave the hotplate damp. If the oxidation

phenomenon still appears, use lightly abrasive paper to remove the oxidation, taking care to rub gently, always in

the direction of the plate satin ﬁ nish. Do not cook food directly on the plate surface. Always use suitable containers.
