COOK SMARTLY AT THE RIGHT TEMPERATURE The AMC lid knob has a built-in thermometer called the Visiotherm®, which is fundamental in cooking the AMC way. Using the Visiotherm® correctly enables a gentle cooking process that requires less water, fats and oil. The lid knob includes a finger guard design, protecting fingers against a hot lid.

CLASSIC COOKWARE HANDLES Ergonomically designed handles give a good grip and stay cool during cooking, allowing for easy handling and carrying.

3

GOURMET COOKWARE HANDLES Ergonomically designed handles give a good grip and stay cool during cooking, allowing for easy handling and carrying. Cookware with these handles can also be used in the oven for finishing off a meal or grilling. Use an AMC Oven Glove or Gourmet Grip to remove from the oven.

4

EVEN HEAT DISTRIBUTION AND RETENTION The AMC “Akkutherm®” base ensures perfect heat distribution and retention, eliminating “hot-spots” and the need for a hotplate when serving. With the release of new generation cookware in 2009, AMC is also suitable for induction cookers.


5

MONO-COOLING SIDES ASSIST IN THE COOKING PROCESS The sides of AMC units are a single layer of stainless steel that play a key role during the cooking process as “cooling zones”, keeping the cooking temperature just below boiling point and allowing food to cook gently.

6

A VERSATILE LID MAKES COOKING A PLEASURE A perfect–fit, weighted lid creates a water tight seal during the cooking process. The lid also has a nondrip design capturing moisture that has collected on it’s inside surface, keeping kitchen counters clean. The lid fits conveniently between the handle and rim for safe placement while adding ingredients to your meal or stirring. And finally when reversed (lid knob facing down), the lid becomes a stable serving base for your meal.

HOW DOES THE VISIOTHERM® WORK? As the unit preheats, the gold indicator in the Visiotherm® will move according to the temperature inside. It indicates the ideal temperature to start frying, browning or cooking specific foods, and it shows you when the temperature is too high. View the Visiotherm® as a clock face. There are four key areas to consider as the indicator moves during cooking:

Cold unit

First red area - start cooking or reduce heat

THE AMC AUDIOTHERM® The Audiotherm® is your partner in the kitchen, keeping an eye on your cooking so you don’t have to. It will alert you when your AMC unit reaches important temperatures indicated on the Visiotherm® – first red area (time to start frying, or reduce heat), white zone (ideal temperature for longer cooking) and 2nd red area (unit too hot). Once in place, the Audiotherm® will signal an alarm when the Visiotherm’s gold indicator is aligned with the arrow on the Audiotherm®.

White zone- optimum cooking temperature

Second red area - unit too hot

COLD AREA

FIRST RED AREA

12 ‘O CLOCK

SECOND RED AREA

This indicates a cold unit, or a cold lid that was removed during cooking. Preheat your empty unit on medium to brown or sauté foods. Or place dripping wet vegetables or rice with water in your cold unit and heat over a medium temperature.

When heated over a medium temperature, this indicates the ideal heat to start browning or sautéing most foods without the addition of fat. Or you need to reduce the heat now when cooking rice or waterless vegetables.

The ideal cooking temperature is between the 12 o’ clock and 2 o’clock position, indicated by a white zone.

The unit is too hot and your food might burn. Reduce the temperature or remove the unit from the heat.

F E AT U R E S O F A M C

NON-DRIP RIM AMC cookware features a narrow design rim that is impact-resistant and designed to pour liquids without dripping.

Meet our BRAND HELEEN MEYER

YUDHIKA SUJANANI

Heleen is no stranger to the AMC family. Previously the AMC home economist, she is now also one of our brand ambassadors and an independent food consultant.

Celebrity chef Yudhika Sujanani is very active in the community and on the media, and has pretty much become a household name already!

Her food styling appeals to a wide market and she is already a household name through her cookbooks, articles, demonstrations, TV work and a weekly radio insert on RSG (Radio Sonder Grense) entitled ‘Living green in the kitchen.

Yudhika has her own range of “Curry Me Home” recipe books and spices available in most retailers, makes regular appearances on TV and in print, and does all her cooking demonstrations with AMC cookware. Despite having her finger in so many pies, she’s even found the time to produce her very own cooking programme called “Sugar and Spice” - currently being shown on DSTV.

Heleen’s cooking and recipes have a strong focus on health, and therefore AMC forms and integral part of her service and offering. Whether she’s doing a cooking demonstration, developing recipes or sharing tips on the radio – she makes the most of emphasizing the benefits when cooking in AMC cookware.

without my AMC!


AMBASSADORS THE LITTLE PINK CHEF - MARYKE JOSLING With more than 10 years’ experience as a chef, travelling and cooking around the globe, Maryke Josling decided to share her passion for great food.

This curry queen also has a big heart, and for the last few years has organized a fundraising event called “The Curry Club”, which aims to increase awareness about the needs of communities, raise funds and collect food aid.

On returning to South Africa in 2009 she started The Little Pink Chef and ever since it has grown into a cooking studio teaching hundreds of clients each year. The Little Pink Chef specialises in a wide variety of cooking classes, and even offers kiddies cooking classes which has been her fastest growing class in the last two years.

Whilst growing-up, the kitchen was the heart of their home and AMC became part of her family. Now she can only attest to cooking in the best cookware and cannot do without her AMC!

Being multi-talented, Maryke not only runs the cooking studio but also offers food and wine pairings, catering and personal chef services too. Maryke uses AMC Cookware in her cooking studio and believes that cooking with AMC has improved the quality of her cooking and her classes.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

HOW DO I COOK THE AMC WAY? (FAT-FREE AND WATERLESS COOKING)

Cooking the AMC way is about using medium to low temperatures to cook waterless and fat-free. This method of cooking is very easy, and will become second nature to you. Using the Visiotherm® ensures the best results. The four questions below will help you apply this cooking principal.

Q1A: Do I start in a preheated or cold unit? When frying or sautéing, preheat the empty unit on medium until the Visiotherm® reaches the first red area. When cooking ingredients like rice or vegetables, start in a cold unit and heat the food and unit together.

Q1B: Do I have to add any fat, oil or moisture? Ask yourself whether the ingredients have sufficient fat or moisture already. Skinless chicken breasts fillets, fish and eggs will always need a little oil for frying or baking, whereas chops and bacon have sufficient fat for frying. A combination of vegetables, rinsed and cooked together, only needs the water clinging to it for the cooking process. However, potatoes or gem squash on their own will need a small amount of water.

Q1C: Do I cook with or without the lid? When frying food, don’t cover the unit with the lid. On the other hand when cooking food like rice or vegetables or simmering a stew, a lid is important to retain moisture.

Q1D: Do I keep the stove plate on medium or do I adjust it to a lower setting? A general rule for frying food is that no lid is required and the stove plate remains on a medium temperature. When further cooking is required, cover the unit with a lid and reduce the temperature to a lower setting to prevent overcooking.

Q2

WHY IS AMC SO EXPENSIVE?

AMC is manufactured from the highest grade imported surgical stainless steel and all products are covered by a true lifetime guarantee – how many other products can you think of that are covered for life? AMC is not mass-produced and is virtually finished by hand – this is the exceptional finish you’ll notice when compared to other brands. Furthermore we offer an extensive after-sales customer service that is dedicated to your product and service satisfaction.

Q3

HOW DOES AMC RETAIN MOISTURE AND NUTRIENTS IN FOOD?

AMC is designed to prepare food below the boiling point of water, thereby preserving the moisture, vitamins and minerals in the food that normally gets destroyed by excessive heat.

Q4

MAY I HAVE A PRICE LIST OF YOUR PRODUCTS?

Our price list is not a picture brochure with prices. We have an extensive price list necessary for me, the consultant, to determine which AMC products and combo’s will suit your needs best.

Q5

HOW LONG IS THE LIFETIME GUARANTEE?

The lifetime guarantee has no time limit and covers any replacements or repair due to faulty material or workmanship.

Q6

WHY MUST I PAY FOR REPAIRS WHEN AMC HAS A LIFETIME GUARANTEE?

The lifetime guarantee is very comprehensive – but should anything occur not covered under our guarantee (such as negligence), then it will need to be paid for by the customer.

Q7

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN AMC AND THE OTHER BRANDS (BASTILLE, NMC, ETC.)

AMC has been in South Africa since 1968 and has for all these years (and many more to come) offered an exceptional product and service that we pride ourselves on. Our product is made of the highest quality 18/10 surgical stainless steel and is backed by a lifetime guarantee -

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

by customers (CONT.)

and I would be disappointed if you were not confident about your purchase. You are welcome to compare our product, but please take my contact details when you have made a decision.

HOW DO I CLEAN MY COOKWARE TO KEEP IT LOOKING SHINY AND NEW?

Using hot soapy water with a soft sponge will generally keep your cookware looking good. Always use a soft sponge and never a scourer or material that can scratch the cookware. Also ensure that you keep the bottom of the cookware clean. Rainbow coloured stains can occur when cooking starchy foods, and can easily be removed by wiping the stains with lemon juice or white vinegar. Straw coloured stains may occur if the unit has been overheated. These can be removed by using AMC Classic Cleaner or Chemico, which is available in supermarkets. If your units have been excessively overheated and have darker straw-coloured stains, these can be removed by sending the units to our factory for repolishing at a nominal charge. More information can be found in the Use and Care booklet.

Q8A. Can I put AMC in the dishwasher? Yes, most AMC cookware is safe to use in the dishwasher, although we recommend using regular dish washing powder and salts as apposed to the “all-in-one” solutions. Electrical units and the Speedcooker® lid should not be placed in the dishwasher.

60

F R E Q U E N T LY A S K E D Q U E S T I O N S

Q8

Q9

CAN I USE AMC ON GAS?

Yes, AMC is safe to use on gas, but remember to still work on medium to low temperatures. Don’t allow the flame to pass the base of the unit as it can burn the sides of the cookware and melt the handles.

Q10

CAN I USE AMC IN THE OVEN?

The Gourmet range of AMC has stainless steel handles. These can be used in the oven, provided that the lid has been removed.

Q11

MY CHILD IS ALLERGIC TO ALUMINIUM - CAN WE STILL USE AMC?

Yes – AMC cookware is manufactured from the highest grade surgical stainless steel. Although the base contains aluminium, it is completely encapsulated by the stainless steel. Through our unique design it is not possible for the aluminium in the base to come into contact with food cooked in the unit, and neither can the aluminium affect the stainless steel or penetrate its surrounding layer. The aluminium in the base serves to give our product it’s heat retention properties, nothing else. Therefore I can safely say that AMC is the right choice of cookware for someone allergic to aluminium.

Q12

CAN I USE AMC COOKWARE ON AN INDUCTION STOVE?

Yes absolutely. If you purchased after April 2009, you own the New Generation range of cookware. This range is induction friendly, as indicated by the “i” on the base of the unit.

COMMON OBJECTIONS BY CUSTOMERS: WHY IS AMC SO EXPENSIVE? Response Option 1: AMC is not just “good quality cookware”. It is engineered to cook food using the healthiest method known, retaining more goodness and flavour in your meals. I know you will agree that the health of your family is priceless, therefore by using AMC you are making an investment in your family’s quality of life. Besides this, AMC cookware comes with a lifetime guarantee which means you’ll never need to buy cookware again. I would appreciate the opportunity to show you the quality of AMC in your home. You have absolutely no obligation to buy. What time would suit you best?

Response Option 2: Let me ask you, why is a Mercedes so much more expensive than a Toyota? You pay more for better engineering, better performance, better sound and more in a Mercedes, because it is the best in it’s class. Now I’m not saying a Toyota is a bad car, but it is just not as good as a Mercedes, and that is the same reason why AMC is more expensive than other brands – this is the best cookware on the market.

AMC IS THE SAME AS OTHER STAINLESS STEEL COOKWARE. Response: We take pride in the quality of our cookware which is made from the finest quality 18/10 surgical stainless steel. Our Akkutherm® molecular base gives our cookware incredible heat retention properties and enables our customers to cook at low to medium temperatures, saving electricity and retaining


PRODUCT KNOWLEDGE THE COOKING PROCESS IN AMC

Steam rises from the food to the cooler sides and lid of the unit

The cooler surfaces cause condensation to occur, moisture is retained in the unit

Response: AMC saves you money each month in the form of lower electricity bills, much less oil and less shrinkage of meat. By not having AMC in your kitchen, these expenses could easily pay your monthly premium for your own set of AMC cookware. We have a very good payment plan and a variety of combinations that save you money. Let’s see if there is one to suit your pocket. If it seems your customer can truly not afford to buy now - tell them about the opportunity to sell AMC. Talk about recruiting.

I FIRST NEED TO TALK TO MY HUSBAND/WIFE/ PARTNER BEFORE I DECIDE. Response: I agree with you 100% but you cannot expect your partner to make an informed decision without having seen an AMC demonstration. Let me come and show you both with absolutely no obligation, what AMC can offer you.

AMC is designed so that it is not necessary to use excessive amounts of water, oil or fat to cook or fry food. The natural moisture (water or fat) inside the food and sometimes only a little extra liquid is used for the cooking process. When heated over a medium temperature, the Akkutherm® base conducts just enough heat to transform the moisture or fat in the food to steam. The warm steam rises to the sides and lid of the unit. The steam condenses and drips down and the process repeats itself by forming steam, rising and condensing again. The moisture also forms the important water seal between the lid and unit, to prevent steam from escaping and cold air from entering the unit. Food is cooked through this ongoing process of hot steam circulating inside the unit, limiting the loss of valuable nutrients and the food is cooked in its natural moisture. That is why the unit should not be opened during the cooking process unless it is really necessary. For the best cooking results, the unit should be filled to two-thirds of its capacity. If you have to lift the lid early during the cooking process, just add 2 or 3 tablespoons of water to compensate for potential moisture loss.
