Uneven bases increaseenergy consumption.■ The diameter of pot and pan bases should be the same sizeas the hotplate. In particular, small saucepans on the hotplatecause energy losses. Please note: cookware manufacturersoften indicate the upper diameter of the saucepan. This isusually bigger than the diameter of the base of the pan.■ Use a small saucepan for small quantities.
