How to Boil Water on an Electric Griddle (5 Steps)
Think outside the pancake box when contemplating uses for your electric griddle, sometimes known as a flat top grill. An electric griddle consists of a flat, non-stick surface which heats to the temperature set by the user. Foods normally prepared in a frying pan are cooked directly on the griddle's surface without the need for additional cookware, but water requires a glass vessel to hold it without damaging the non-stick griddle surface. This method will take longer than heating in a metal pot on a stove top depending on your model of griddle and the type of glass used in your cooking pot construction.
Things You'll Need
- Water

Instructions
-
Preheat the electric griddle to its highest setting.
-
Fill the glass pot no more than halfway with water.
-
Gently set the pot in the middle of the griddle without dragging it across the surface of the griddle.
-
Let the water heat to a boiling indicated by bubbles rising to the surface of the water rapidly and breaking.
-
Lift the pot straight up from the surface of the griddle to avoid scratching the surface.
