If you have ever cooked a meal and felt frustrated because it heated unevenly on your stove, you will be happy to hear about the Star Burner from Thermador. Compared to a traditional round burner, the Star Burner covers a parameter that is 56 percent longer. When you turn on the stove, the flame spreads out further for faster and more evenly distributed heating. This is true regardless of the size of the pan you use for cooking. With 22 BTU of cooking power, you can spend less time searing and boiling your food and more time enjoying it with your family.
Perfect for Low Temperature Cooking
The Star Burner comes with a feature called ExtraLow that provides you with a variety of options for temperature control for any type of simmering or food warming. When the ExtraLow feature is enabled, it cycles the Star Burner on and off in order to maintain the low temperatures necessary for this type of cooking. If you need to simmer or warm food for several hours, ExtraLow makes it possible by keeping the temperature as low as 100 degrees Fahrenheit. This is ideal for those sauces you want to be just right before serving them.
Easy to Clean
Even when you truly enjoy cooking, keeping the stove and its burners clean is another story. It can be especially challenging to clean when food is stuck to the side of the burners. When you clean a stovetop with star-shaped burners, your hand and sponge easily fit underneath each burner for quick cleaning without a lot of elbow grease required. The burners are equipped with a teardrop emboss that prevents food from clinging to the base in the first place.
