Cookware  

IMPORTANT: Do not leave empty cookware on a hot surface  

cooking area, element or surface burner.  

COOKWARE  

CHARACTERISTICS  

Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides and 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 grates.  

Ceramic or  

Ceramic glass

■

Follow manufacturer’s instructions.  

Heats slowly, but unevenly.  

Ideal results on low to medium heat  

settings.  

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.  

Copper  

■

Heats very quickly and evenly.  

Earthenware  

■

■

Follow manufacturer’s instructions.  

Use on low heat settings.  

Cookware with nonstick surfaces should not be used under the  

broiler.  

Check for flatness by placing the straight edge of a ruler across the  

bottom of the cookware. While you rotate the ruler, no space or  

light should be visible between it and the cookware.  

Porcelain  

enamel-on-  

steel or cast  

iron

See stainless steel or cast iron.  

Stainless steel  

■

■

Heats quickly, but unevenly.  

A core or base of aluminum or copper  

on stainless steel provides even  

heating.  

Use flat-bottomed cookware for best cooking results and energy  

efficiency. The cookware should be about the same size as the  

cooking area outlined on the cooktop. Cookware should not extend  

more than ½" (1.3 cm) outside the area.  

Use the following chart as a guide for cookware material  

characteristics.

HomeCanning  

Canning can be performed on a glass smooth top cooking surface.  

When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface  

cooking areas or elements between batches. This allows time for  

the most recently used areas to cool.  

■

■

■

Do not place canner on 2 surface cooking areas or elements at  

the same time.  

On ceramic glass models, use only flat-bottomed canners to  

avoid damage to the cooktop and elements.  

■

Center the canner on the largest surface cooking area or  

element. On electric cooktops, canners should not extend  

more than ½" (1.3 cm) beyond the surface cooking area or  

element.  

For more information, contact your local agricultural extension  

office, or refer to the USDA Home Canning Guides. Companies  

that manufacture home canning products can also offer  

assistance.
