Waterless Cooking...
Health Craft Induction cookware is designed to cook fresh and frozen vegetables (and some fruits) with very little added water. This waterless cooking method greatly reduces the loss of nutrients that occurs in other cooking methods... and the vegetables taste great! COOK WITH THE VENT CLOSED
How it Works:
Vegetables and fruits contain 70%-95% water - enough to cook them provided the heat is controlled and the moisture is retained inside the pan. Begin cooking waterless vegetables at medium low heat with the cover on and the vent closed, when the cover spins on a cushion of water, vegetables cook at approximately 10 minutes per quart.
The Full-Body Construction of Health Craft provides even heat distribution. This allows the vegetables on top to cook just as well as those on the bottom - without the need for boiling water to distribute the heat. The Vapor Seal “weighted” with the vent closed, covers spin freely on a cushion of water when the pasteurizing cooking temperature is reached (approximately 180º F). This temperature is sufficient to kill germs and bacteria, which may be on the food, but does not destroy the heat-sensitive nutrients.

Greaseless Cooking…
Health Craft can cook nearly all of your meats, poultry and some seafood without any added grease, fat or cooking oil. This can help you reduce calories without dieting, help you lower your cholesterol level and maintain a healthy heart. Our exclusive high polished finish on our Gourmet Skillets allows you to cook eggs and pancakes with very little oil. COOK WITH THE VENT OPEN How it Works
All meats & poultry contain juices. Much of it is water, but much of it is also fat. By trimming the visible fat from meat before cooking and then "pan broiling" the meat in Health Craft cookware without adding fats or oil, you can enjoy tender juicy meats that are much lower in fat and calories.
Preheat the pan at medium to medium-high. After about 3 minutes, test the surface with a few water drops. If the droplets bead up and dance across the surface, the pan is hot enough to sear (caramelize) the meat surface and seal in the natural juices.
Meats will stick at first. Cover the pan until the meat loosens (usually in about 5 minutes). To prevent grease from splattering, cover the pan and open the vent.
When meat loosens, turn it to brown on the other side. Then, cover the pan with the vent open.
Continue cooking according to the recipe. Normally, cooking time is about 5 to 10 minutes per side for steaks, chops, cutlets or boneless chicken; the time is longer for thicker cuts of beef or poultry with bones… See Healthy Meat and Potatoes page #101, included with your collection of cookware for more instruction on how to time and test meat for doneness.
Eggs & Pancakes cook about the same as when browning meat, medium to medium high heat; only add a small quantity of butter or healthy oil (olive oil or Macadamia Nut oil) to the pan before adding the eggs or pancakes. Fry as normal.

Stack Cooking...
Health Craft stack cooking features allows you cook with more pans than you have burners. You'll appreciate this when you’re cooking for a large family gathering or special holiday dinner. The various combinations allow you to cook a number of foods on a single burner, saving energy and money. Where you see a saucepan sitting on top of our exclusive 5-PLY hi-dome cover or an inverted gourmet chef pan, it may not have started out there. You must begin cooking most raw vegetables in a covered saucepan on a burner at medium-low heat. Once the cover spins freely on a cushion of water, you can place the saucepan on the dome cover to finish cooking. Precooked foods such as canned vegetables or thawed frozen vegetables are the exceptions. You can start them out on top of a stack.

Induction Cooking...
Health Craft uses the principles of electromagnetism to heat the 438 magnetic Surgical Stainless Steel on the outside of the pans, transferring heat quickly and efficiently to the inside. Induction Technology offers levels of efficiency, control and safety unavailable from electric and gas cook-tops or microwave ovens. With ever increasing energy costs Induction Cookware is quickly becoming the choice of millions of homeowners and professionals worldwide.
The induction cook-top has inductor coils under the ceramic surface, when a pan is set on the range an electric current passes through the coil creating a pulsing magnetic field. The metals of the pan have a natural resistance to the movement of electrons causing the pan to heat up. It’s the pan, not the cook-top that heats up and cooks the food. Nothing outside the pan is affected by the magnetic field. As soon as the pan is removed, the range shuts off, and heat generation ceases immediately.

Although Health Craft Cookware works equally as well on Gas and Electric ranges, Induction Ranges are the future, and there are Seven (7) key advantages of Health Craft Induction Cookware:
1. FASTER because energy is directly transferred within the pan’s 438 Magnetic Surgical Stainless Steel metal, heating is faster than gas!
2. SAFER because there is no open flame, red-hot coil or other radiant heat source to ignite fumes or flammable materials, the Health Craft Cookware helps to prevent burns and kitchen fires.
3. CLEANER because with no grates or carbon build-up to worry about, clean up is a breeze; just use a damp cloth and wipe over the smooth, easy-to-clean ceramic glass surface of your new induction range.
4. COOLER because gas ranges produce unused heat that goes into your kitchen, increasing your cooling costs, with Health Craft Induction Cookware, almost no wasted heat is produced since all the heat is being generated within the pan itself. This is also true with electric ranges.
5. CHEAPER because 80% of every dollar you spend on energy goes right into the pan! Gas delivers 43% of the energy you pay for to the pan and electric about 44% to 53%. Plus, when you remove the pan from the induction surface, the unit immediately goes into standby mode, using virtually no energy whatsoever.
6. EVEN HEATING because the 438 magnetic surgical stainless steel on the outside of the Health Craft cookware heats at the same level uniformly, there can be no hot spots. The computerized monitoring feature allows maximum heating of the pan.
7. PORTABLE the Health Craft Portable Induction Cooking Unit can be used safely and efficiently anywhere, including in a boat or recreational vehicle.
