The heat required depends not only on the type and condition of the food, but also the size and contents of the pot. Due to the high performance of the cooktop, fat and oil will heat up quickly. Never leave the cooktop unattended, fat can ignite, food can burn. Preferably use the rear cooking zones to prepare meals, that need longer to cook. Preferably use the high output burners or the wok burner for brief cooking, deep fat frying and searing of large quantities. Cooking in the wok Note Always place the wok ring on the pan support above the wok burner when cooking in a wok. Make sure that the wok is positioned safely on the wok ring while cooking. We recommend using a round-bottom wok. You can order a high-quality wok pan as a special accessory (WP 400 001). Only use oil that is suitable for frying at high temperatures, for example peanut oil. Fry the food quickly on a high heat while stirring continuosly. Vegetables should stay crispy. Use a heat resistant, flat ladle with a long handle to stir the food and take it out of the wok pan.
