SECTION 3 - COOKING HINTS
Open Top
G2107 and G2167 open top burners are rated at
4.5kW nett.
The following units - G2101, G2121, G2161, G2124,
G2131, G2132 and G2151 are fitted with boost
burners rated at 5.3kW nett.
The pan supports will safely accommodate pans from
125mm diameter.
Note
Formaximum efficiency, place pan centrally over
burner head and adjust control setting to avoid flames
licking up pan sides.
Solid Top
It is normal practice to leave the single burner full on
forthe whole of the time the hotplate is in use.
As much of the heat is concentrated in the centre,
tapering away towards the edges, this area should be
used for rapid boiling. The pan then moved away from
main heat source to simmer at desired intensity.
Hints on Using Solid Hotplate
Getting the best out of this type of heat source is
largely a matter of experience coupled with the needs
of a particulartask in hand. Forcertain applications,
such as heating a pot quickly, it will be found
expedient to remove centre ring and place pot directly
over burner. If it is necessary to heat the entire
surface, the ring must be in position. In the interests
of fuel economy, it is recommended that the solid top
should not be left unattended with gas on FULL
setting. If it is necessary to keep the top hot for any
length of time, the control should be turned down to
low flame setting.
Do not at any time leave the gas on without a pot
whilst the centre ring is removed - such practice
simply wastes gas.
The hottest area of the plate is at the centre and
towards the rear. The front and sides are cooler.
Oven
Temperature is automatically controlled by the
thermostat.
Grid Shelves
Two cooking shelves are supplied which can be
supported in any of five different positions within the
oven. When two shelves are being used, these
should be positioned so that at least one single shelf
space is left between them. Always push shelves into
oven until the stops hit the front of the supports.
Tray Sizes
A 900mm wide oven will accomodate a
2/1 gastronorm tray. A 600mm wide oven will
accomodate a 1/1 gastronorm tray. Single trays or
dishes should be placed centrally. Trays must not be
allowed to overhang the shelf in any direction as this
will adversely affect heat circulation.
Pre-Heat Time
Allow at least 45 minutes from lighting a cold oven
before a full load of food may be cooked. Air
temperature will have reached the control setting in
15 minutes. This pre-heat time may be suitable for
lighterloads.
Put food in quickly and close the doors firmly.
Oven Cooking Chart
This information is provided as guidance only.
Figures are approximate and based on a 900mm
wide oven. Due to the natural heat gradient in this
type of oven, it will be necessary to interchange
products on the upper and lower cooking shelves
during the cooking period.
The changeover timing varies depending on product
type, weight and temperature.
