to do. But, really, that large burner was designed for the frying pan or some large base pan. To use 1t on a small pan is to throw gas away.
 You should see to it that the burn CTS are always kept clean and that the gas burns with fairly blue light. If it is too yellow. then the proportions of air and gas are not right. The mix ture can be regulated by the little valve at the front of the stove. If you don't know how the flame should lock when the mixture is right stop in the nearest gas office and get some one to show you.
 If you allow your stew pans to be- come blackened with the carbon that is given off in the gas you are making them poor heat conductors. That is, it will take more gas to bring their contents to boil.
 Always cover every dish in which you are cooking anything unless for some special reason it is undesirable to cover it.
 It is well worth your while to buy steamer in which you can keep several stew pans at the same time, all heated by one gas burner.
