RECIPE TIPS

Stir-Fry

The perfect stir-fry requires high heat and only a small amount of oil. Start by cooking the meat first (or skip ahead if making a vegetarian stir-fry), until it starts to caramelize and remove to a plate (it doesn’t have to be completely done at this point). Then, add your vegetables, the longer-cooking ones first, and progressively adding the quicker-cooking ones. Finally,

return the meat to the pan and cook until done. Recipe Suggestion: Teriyaki chicken and vegetable stir-fry

Sauce

The sauce mode provides enough heat and cooking time to bring out the flavor of onions and other aromatics that form the base of many great sauces. For extended sauce-making, some chefs opt to transition to the Simmer mode after combining ingredients under the Sauce mode. Recipe Suggestion: Homemade Marinara Sauce

Simmer

Simmering is all about cooking low and slow. This setting is perfect for when you need time to bring out the flavor of your ingredients or to
tenderize tougher cuts of meat in a stew. Recipe Suggestion: Beef Chili

Steam

Steaming is a quick and healthy way to cook. When using the steam mode, add 0.5” of water to the pan before adding your ingredients, then use the steam mode to hold the Essential Pan at the perfect even steaming temperature. Recipe Suggestion: Steamed Broccoli with Olive Oil, Garlic and Lemon

Rice

For effortless rice, simply use a 1:2 ratio of Rice:Water for White Rice and 1:2.5 ratio for Brown Rice.
Add rice and water to Essential Pan, and select either White Rice or Brown Rice.
For best results, always rinse rice under running water (to remove starches) before adding to the Essential Pan.

Note: Other rices (short grain rice, wild rice, etc) can also be cooked in your Essential Pan. You can vary the default rice cooking times accordingly (See: Programmed Operation above)

Grains

Select this mode to cook all other grains, such as quinoa or oats. Consult the grains packaging for correct Grain:Water ratio.

Soup

When cooking soup, it’s important not to overcook your ingredients on high heat. That’s where soup mode comes in, and does the work for you by perfectly regulating the heat for an aromatic, flavorful soup making experience.

Sear/Sauté

This mode generates high heat required for searing and sautéing. Add a small amount of oil to the pan before starting, and when the “preheat” indicator dims, you’ll know it’s at the perfect temperature to get deep-brown searing and caramelization.

Other Recipe Tips:

Be sure to spread oil in the Essential Pan before cooking, using a heat resistant spatula or other utensil.
Always use tongs or other utensil to remove food, do not lift Essential pan to pour.
The Essential Pan must be placed on a level surface during use—otherwise uneven cooking (especially for rice) will result.
Your Essential Pan heats up more quickly than normal stovetop cookware.
Always use a little oil or butter suited for frying for best results. Avoid low smoke point oil or aerosol sprays as they cannot withstand high heat.
While your Essential Pan is metal utensil safe, we recommend using plastic, silicone or wooden utensils to prolong the life of the ceramic nonstick coating.
If desired, use only a silicone steamer basket to prolong the life of the nonstick coating.
