Hints and tips
ottery
Remember that a wide-bottomed pan allows a faster
cooking than a narrow one.
Always use pots which properly fit what you have to
cook.
Particularly make sure that the pans are not too small
for liquids, since these could easily overflow.
Moreover, the pans should not be too large for a faster
cooking. In fact, grease and juices may spread on the
bottom and burn easily.
It is better to use non-openable moulds for baking cakes.
In fact, an openable mould lets juices and sugar leak
through, falling on the bottom of the oven and
consequently burning on the bottom of the baking tray,
making cleaning difficult.
Avoid putting plastic-handled pans in the oven as they
are not heat-proof.
You should use pans with the right diameter to fit the
burner, in order to make the most out of it, thus reducing
gas consumption as in Fig. 5.
It is also advisable to cover any boiling casserole and,
as soon as the liquid starts boiling, lower the flame
enough to keep the boiling point.
Hotplates
Saucepans suitable for use on solid plate hobs should
have several characteristics:
 they should be fairly heavy duty;
 they should fit the heat area exactly, or be slightly
larger for efficient use, NEVER smaller;
 they should have a flat base to ensure good contact
with the plate (see Fig. 6 .
This is particularly important when using pans for high
temperature frying or pressure cooking.
Ensure pans are large enough to avoid liquids being spilt
onto the plates.
Never leave the plates on without a pan on them or with
an empty pan on them.
In models supplied with a cover, if it is made of
glass, it should not be closed when the burners are
still hot, as it could splinter.

Suggestions for the use of the gas
burners
Start your cooking with a big flame by turning the knob
to the symbol . Then adjust the flame as necessary.
The outside of the flame is much hotter than its inside
(nucleus . Accordingly , the top of the flame should lick
the bottom of the pan. Excessive flames mean a waste
of gas.
In contrast with electric grids, gas burners do not require
flat-bottomed pans: the flames lick the bottom and
spread the heat all over the surface.
No special pans are required for gas burners. However,
thinwalled pans transmit the heat to the food more
quickly than thick-walled ones.
Since heat doesn't spread evenly on the pan's bottom,
the food may only be partially heated. Consequently it
is advisable to stir the food many times.
A thick pan bottom prevents partial overheating as it
allows sufficient thermic compensation.
Avoid very small pans. Wide and shallow pans are more
suitable than narrow and deep ones as they allow a
faster heating. Cooking is not quickened by placing
narrow pans on wide burners. The result is just a waste
of gas. For a proper usage, place small pans on small
burners and large pans on large burners.
Remember to cover pans to reduce gas consumption.
Suggestions for the use of the oven
Traditional cooking
Heat derives from the top and the bottom, it is therefore
preferable to use the central guides. If cooking requires
more heat from the bottom or the top, use the upper or
lower guides.
Advice for use of the traditional
oven (gas and electric)
For the cooking of cakes
Pre-heat the oven , unless indicated differently, for at
least 10 minutes before use. Do not open the oven
door when cooking dishes which must raise (e.g. raised
pastries and soufflés ; the jet of cold air would block
the raising process. To check if cakes are cooked,
insert a toothpick into the mixture; if it comes out clean
the cake is ready. Wait until at least 3/4 of the cooking
time has passed before doing this check.
As a general rule remember that:
a dish which is well-cooked on the outside but not
sufficiently cooked inside would have required a lower
temperature and longer cooking time. On the contrary,
a dry texture would have required a shorter time and
higher cooking temperature.
For the cooking of meat
Meat to be cooked in the oven should weigh at least 1
kilo to avoid its becoming too dry. If you want roasts
with a good colour, use very little oil. If the piece is lean,
use oil or butter or a little of both. Butter or oil are on
the other hand unnecessary if the piece has a strip of
fat.
If the piece has a strip of fat on one side only, put it in
the oven with this side upwards; when melting the fat
will grease the lower side sufficiently.
Red meat should be removed from the fridge one hour
before cooking otherwise the sudden change of tem-
perature could cause it to become tough. A roast,
especially if of red meat, must not be salted at the
beginning of cooking as salt causes juices and blood to
seep out of the òmeat, thus preventing the formation of
a well-browned crust.
It is advisable to salt the outside of the meat after just
over half the cooking time.
Place the roast in the oven in a dish having a low rim;
a deep dish shields heat.
