Grilling tips
Do not use any pots or pans when using the grilll as these can cause the appliance to overheat and may permanently damage the ceramic surface. Wipe the cold grill clean with a damp cloth before each use. Select the desired setting and preheat the grill for 4 - 6 minutes. For the best flavor when grilling meat, make sure the setting is high enough to sear the meat and lock in the juices. If the setting is too low, the cooked meat will be dry. Food which has been soaked in a marinade containing oil can be placed directly on the grill; otherwise lightly oil or grease the cooking area. Small amounts of wine, water, or stock can be used to steam foods. Cognac, spirits and fruit brandies can also be used to flambé. Do not flambé under an exhaust hood. Flames could be drawn up into the hood by the suction or the grease filters may ignite. Dry wet foods with paper towels before cooking to minimize splattering. To prevent meat from drying out, salt it after grilling. Cut fish into bite-size pieces or fillets, and brush with lemon juice. When possible, select thin cuts of meat that can be grilled quickly. When cooking thicker cuts, first sear them at a high setting, then turn the grill down so they can finish cooking slowly. Wash fruits and cut them into pieces before cooking. Sprinkling them with lemon juice will help prevent the pieces from turning brown. Vegetables can be cut into slices, rings, cubes or sticks. The smaller the pieces, the quicker they will cook. Whole vegetables can be parboiled to reduce the cooking time and to help minimize starch deposits on the grill surface. Turn or stir food using a Teflon coated or heat-resistant plastic spatula. Turn or stir food frequently to prevent burning.
