1) Use the Correct Sized Pots & PansIf you're preparing a smaller meal, then you should use a smaller pan. Bonus - Keeping a lid on your pots and pans helps keep the heat in, allowing you to use less energy to cook your meal!2) Clean Your Stovetop OftenBurner efficiency can be reduced dramatically when burner pans are blackened due to heavy use. Why? Because a shiny surface reflects heat better than a blackened one.3) Reduce Overall Cook TimeThe less time you spend cooking, the less energy you typically use. Reduce cook time by planning ahead.Try defrosting all frozen items in the refrigerator instead of the microwave or oven before use.4) Invest in High-Quality CookwareA warped pan can waste up to 50 percent of the heat used on a stovetop. However, a flat pan will utilize almost all energy. Similarly, If you use high-quality cookware that is made from highly conductive materials you will get the same results while using approximately 25% less heat!
