Detailed Solution

We want a greater rise in temperature for a moderate supply of heat, so that cooking is hastened.

Since, Q=mcθ, the lower the value c, higher is the value of θ. So low specific heat is desirable.

High thermal conductivity is desirable so that heat is communicated to all parts of the system quickly, for uniform cooking.
