Use saucepans and pots with thick, even bases.
Uneven bases increase the cooking time.
Select the correct saucepan size for each hotplate.
The diameter of the bases of the saucepans and pots
should match the size of the hotplate.
Note: Ovenware manufacturers often give
the diameter of the top of the saucepan. It is usually
larger than the diameter of the base of the saucepan.
Use a small saucepan for small quantities. A larger,
less full saucepan requires more energy.
Saucepans and pots should always be covered
with a suitable lid. Cooking without a lid requires
much more energy.
Cook with small quantities of water This saves energy
and helps vegetables to retain vitamins and minerals.
Switch down to a lower heat setting in good time.

chocolate or butter or keeping food warm.
