Then, the gas burner 2 is ignited and heated with the target thermal power. The CPU unit 34 starts measuring the preheating time.
[0034]
The CPU section 34 takes in data of the pan bottom temperature and the weight at predetermined time intervals and performs monitoring. When detecting that the cooking container has been removed based on the weight data, the CPU 34 extinguishes the gas burner 2 and stops automatic cooking. The CPU unit 34 continues the preheating until the pot bottom temperature reaches the set value (step S2). Note that the CPU unit 34 extinguishes the gas burner 2 and stops the automatic cooking when the pan bottom temperature does not rise and when the pan bottom temperature does not reach the set value even if the preset preheating allowable time is exceeded.
[0035]
When the pot bottom temperature reaches the set value, the CPU unit 34 generates a voice message prompting the introduction of food (step S3). The CPU unit 34 recognizes that the food has been input based on the increase in weight (step S4). Further, the CPU unit 34 obtains the amount of the input food from the difference between the default value of the pot weight and the weight after the input of the food (step S5).
