Cooking tips
DANGER: Use caution if you intend to heat oil or fat very rapidly. At very high temperatures
oil and fat may ignite spontaneously, thus creating a serious fire hazard
- The use of a lid reduces cooking times and saves energy because it reduces heat loss.
- Use only the necessary quantity of oil or fat to reduce cooking times.
- Start cooking by setting a high temperature, then reduce the temperature when the food reaches the
required cooking conditions.
