3.4 Cookware

NOTE: Do not leave empty cookware on a hot surface cooking area, element or surface burner

Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides, a well-fitting lid and the material should be of

medium-to-heavy thickness.

Rough finishes may scratch the cooktop. Aluminum and copper may be used as a core or base in

cookware. However, when used as a base they can leave permanent marks on the cooktop or pan

stands.

Cookware material is a factor in how quickly and evenly heat is transferred, which affects cooking

results. A nonstick finish has the same characteristics as its base material. For example, aluminum

cookware with a nonstick finish will take on the properties of aluminum.

Use the following chart as a guide for cookware material characteristics.
