The cooking hob is equipped with hotplates having different diameters. Use pots and pans whose bottom diameter is equal to that of the hotplates, or slightly larger. Only use flat-bottomed pots and pans. Do not operate a hotplate without placing a container on it. If possible, keep the container covered when cooking. Cook vegetables, potatoes, etc. with a small amount of water in order to cut down cooking time. A pressure cooker allows you to save even more energy and time.
