life in the kitchen

Kitchen Appliances :

Electric stove :
  • Turn off electric stoves several minutes before the specified cooking time
  • Use flat-bottomed pans that make full contact with the cooking coil
Gas stove :
  • When cooking on a gas burner, use moderate flame settings to conserve LPG
  • Remember that a blue flame means your gas stove is operating efficiently
  • Yellowish flame is an indicator that the burner needs cleaning
  • Use pressure cookers as much as possible
  • Use lids to cover the pans while cooking
  • Bring items taken out of refrigerators (like vegetables, milk etc) to room temperature before placing on the gas stove for heating
  • The hob you choose should always be the same size as the saucepan or frying pan.
