Re: Ceramic top stove Cookware

I have had ceramic top stove for 25-years. I use flat bottom stainless steel cookware. Mine is white and instructions said not to use colored (enamel) cookware on it.

Re: Ceramic top stove Cookware

I bought a new glass top range about three weeks ago. I'm really liking it. Especially the double ovens.

This is from their user manual:

The heating elements appear to be turning on and off. This cycling process maintains your chosen heat setting and will occur continuously while you are cooking. This is normal operation.

Types of pots or pans not to use: painted/enameled bottom pans are not recommended. Also, stoneware and cast iron pots and pans can create scratches on the glass surface. Pans with rounded, curved, ridged or warped bottoms are not recommended.

I bought some Calphalon pans at TJMaxx, and my older Farberware work just fine.

I do want to bottle some tomatoes, but I don't want to use my canner on the cooktop. I'm not sure how to handle that situation yet.

I like ceramic cookware the best. I believe its perfectly flat at the bottom and food doesn't burn in it as easily as in stainless or teflon. Also easy maintenance.

Re: Ceramic top stove Cookware

We bought an electric ceramic flat top stove also. I read my instructions and I specifically remember it said not to use porcelain cookware on it. That stuck out to me because I had several porcelain frying pans and I gave them to my SIL.
