I had a corning ware electric stove and did not know that I could not use cast iron or pressure cookers and did so for years.

I only fry in the cast iron skillets.

It is true, my wok did not work on it.

Just don’t use it full force heat and watch it, you may need to move the cooker off or partly off and I have used a metal plate that came with a small pressure cooker, on the wood stove to keep things from burning/getting too hot.

Or maybe one of those wire stars that came with the Pyrex coffee pots would work.

Thanks, granny. Many years ago my dad made one of those “wire stars” that he shaped from a coat hanger. I only had to use it on the one burner that never got low enough and always burned food.

Maybe someday I’ll muster up some courage and try that.
