Tips for cooking and roasting

The values in the settings table serve as mere
guidelines, since more or less heat may be required,
depending on the type and condition of the foods, as
well as the size and fullness of the pot.
The high output causes grease and oil to heat up
quickly. Don't leave food unattended while frying;
grease can catch fire and burn the food.
The rear cooking zone should be used to prepare foods
requiring longer cooking times.
For parboiling, frying and deep-frying large portions,
you should use the high-output burner.
