With today’s rising utility costs, saving energy is
of interest to nearly every household. Aroma®
cookware is known for its outstanding thermal
conductivity and tremendous heat storage
capacity – characteristics that are highly
advantageous and extremely important when
it comes to saving energy.
After briefly heating up your empty Aroma®
cookware, add your ingredients, and keep the
temperature low during cooking. Consistent
heat distribution and optimum cooking
temperatures are guaranteed thanks to the
exceptional thermal base. This saves you one
third more energy compared to conventional
pans and helps prevent overheating.
Measure out the proper amount of food;
cookware should always be around 2/3 full.
Steam vegetables with the lid on and very little
liquid. This not only reduces the cooking time by
30% to 40%, but also enhances flavor and helps
retain valuable nutrients in the food.
Ensure that the base of your cookware and
the surface of your stovetop are always clean;
residue can inhibit thermal conductivity and
result in needless energy waste.
Your Aroma®cookware features an extremely
strong thermal base that keeps food warm
long after the stovetop has been turned o.
Empty pans made of handcast aluminum reach a
temperature of approx. 572°F after just three minutes
when heated at the highest level. Fats can burn
extremely fast at these high temperatures, creating
“tar resin” that can burn into the surface coating.
Once this happens the tar resin impairs the nonstick
surface properties and can no longer be removed. In
general, fats and oils should never be heated up to
the smoke point.
The right cooking temperature plays a key
role in preparing a healthy meal!

1. Briefly heat up your Aroma®cookware.
2. The thermal base ensures rapid, even heating.
3. Lower the heat by a third and then place your
food into the cookware.
4. If you are cooking with oil or fat, the kitchen
spoon test will help you determine whether
the cookware has reached the right cooking
temperature. Simply hold a dry wooden spoon
in the oil or fat – if bubbles form, it is the perfect
time to add food to the cookware.
5. The cookware should never get hot enough to
produce smoke or burn oil or fat.

· Always lift pots and pans when moving them
on stovetops. Stovetops of this type are subject
to low manufacturer tolerances. Even when
there is light residue between the surface of the
stovetop and the base of the pan (from salt,
sugar, etc.), dragging pots or pans can scratch
the aluminum base or the surface of ceramic
stovetops.
Note:
Helpful
Hints:
· It is important to
choose oils or fats
suited for the desired
cooking temperature
you use when
preparing your dishes
because dierent
types of fats and oils
have varying levels of
heat stability.
· This is known as the
smoke point – the
temperature at which
fat begins to burn and
visible smoke forms.
· Dietary fats,
margarines and most
native or cold-pressed
oils (e.g. native
saower or sunflower
oil) are generally not
suitable for frying!
Always observe
the manufacturer’s
specifications on the
packaging.
